North Branford Historic Cedar Roof
Copper chimney flashing being installed as part of the wood roof replacement on this historic North Branford farmhouse. Built in 1815, this project involved removing three layers of shingles to reveal a shiplap roof deck. We Installed Ice and Water barrier at the edges and ridge and around chimneys (which we also replaced - see that project here on Houzz). We installed 18" Western Red Cedar perfection shingles across all roofing and a top bay windows. All valleys and chimney/vent protrusions were flashed with copper, in keeping with the traditional look of the period.
