The client's home is a beautiful Tudor style mansion located in Hudson, Ohio. We were contacted by the client ’s architect in early 2006 to help design and construct an addition to the home, as well as evaluate the existing slate and flat roofs. This project was completed in four phases. They were:

1.) Construct a 3 car attached garage with a laundry room and tack (equestrian equipment) room, to replace an existing detached 2 car garage
2.) Assess the current condition of the main house roofing slates and flashings and repair/replace as necessary.
3.) Remove and replace the existing gutters and downspouts on the house with custom fabricated copper.
4.) Assess the current condition of all of the existing flat roofs on the house and repair/replace as necessary.

The addition, besides being the main garage, was to be functional for additional storage and to bring the laundry room from the basement to the first floor. Many hours were spent researching and procuring materials and finishes to meet the projects goals.

Our assessment of the roofing concluded that all flashings and flat roof materials required replacement. The homeowners required that we return the flashings and flat roofs to the original condition when the house was constructed, which meant installation of copper materials. We were also directed to affect all slate repairs, add ventilation to the main house, and rebuild the exterior dormer walls.

With the cooperation of the homeowner, architect, and suppliers, we were able to successfully complete this project to the satisfaction of the homeowner in a little more than 6 months, which was 3 months sooner than scheduled.
