Leaking Metal Roof Replaced with Malarkey Highlander Shingles

This homeowner had a leaking metal roof that needed to go. A roof that lets water in isn't just an annoyance - it's a real threat to your ceilings, insulation, walls, and everything inside. So we came out, stripped it all off, and got to work on something built to last.

The mid-job shots tell the story pretty well. The old roofing was torn completely off, the decking was exposed, and our crew got the Malarkey underlayment down across the entire roofline before shingles ever touched the surface. That bright green underlayment you see is Malarkey's own synthetic product - it's a critical layer that keeps moisture out while the shingles go on. That step matters more than most people realize.

We installed the Malarkey Highlander in Antique Brown. It's a solid architectural shingle with a rich, warm color that ties in perfectly with the home's white siding. The before-and-after difference here is hard to miss. That old green metal is gone, and what replaced it actually adds something to the look of the home - not just fixes a problem.

Here's the part that really stands out to us on this job: the homeowner got a 50-year manufacturer warranty at no extra cost. That's not a selling point we made up - that's just what comes with Malarkey Highlander shingles. For a homeowner who's already dealt with a leaking roof once, that kind of long-term coverage is worth a lot.

A roof replacement is one of the biggest decisions you can make for your home. Getting the right material and the right crew makes all the difference between doing it once and doing it again in ten years.
