Roof replacement in West Vancouver — cedar shake to asphalt shingles conversion with Malarkey Vista shingles, new plywood, ventilation, and drip edges.

This roof replacement project in West Vancouver, BC showcases our expertise in converting older cedar shake roofs into high-performance asphalt shingle roofing systems designed for long-term protection and energy efficiency. The homeowners were looking for a modern, low-maintenance alternative that could handle the challenging West Coast weather while improving the overall appearance and value of their property.

Our crew began by safely removing all existing cedar shakes and performing a full inspection of the roof structure. Any areas of damaged or weakened decking were replaced before installing brand-new plywood sheathing to ensure a solid and durable foundation. We then applied a premium synthetic underlayment for superior water resistance and additional protection against leaks and moisture penetration.

The new roof was finished with Malarkey Vista architectural shingles, known for their impact resistance, algae protection, and sustainable design using recycled materials. These high-quality shingles not only enhance the roof’s appearance but also deliver exceptional performance in West Vancouver’s wet and windy weather conditions.

To improve airflow and extend roof life, we upgraded the ventilation system for proper attic circulation. Our team also custom-fabricated metal drip edges to match the home’s color scheme and provide clean lines while preventing water from reaching the fascia boards.

This 4,750-square-foot roof was completed in just four days, thanks to our experienced crew and organized project management. The homeowners received a 10-year workmanship warranty, ensuring long-lasting protection and peace of mind.
