Project Overview

No job too small.
Same quality. Every time.

Rivers Construction completed a full roof replacement on a residential shed and attached lean-to in Essex, Vermont. The scope covered both structures — main outbuilding and the lower lean-to roof — with a complete tear-off, ice & water shield installation, and Owens Corning Duration architectural shingles throughout.

We bring the same materials, the same installation standards, and the same cleanup process to every project regardless of size. The Owens Corning Duration shingles installed here carry the same SureNail Technology, the same 130 mph wind warranty, and the same Class A fire rating as every full residential replacement we complete. A shed roof that leaks eventually damages the structure, contents, and foundation — replacing it properly with architectural shingles rather than 3-tab protects the investment for 30+ years.

The dump trailer visible in the drone photo captures the full tear-off load — every layer of old material removed before the new system went down. Site was left clean when we finished.

Why It Matters

Outbuildings need
real roofing too.

Sheds & Outbuildings in Vermont

Vermont winters are hard on outbuildings. Ice damming, heavy snow loads, and freeze-thaw cycling degrade shed roofs faster than most homeowners expect — especially when the original installation used low-grade 3-tab shingles or rolled roofing. Once a shed roof starts leaking, water damage to the structure, stored equipment, and foundation follows quickly. Replacing the roof with a proper architectural shingle system at the first sign of failure is almost always cheaper than repairing the structural damage from a leak that's been running for a season.

Owens Corning Duration on Every Project

We spec Owens Corning Duration on outbuildings for the same reason we use it on primary residences — it's simply a better shingle than anything in the 3-tab or entry-level architectural category. The SureNail Technology nailing strip provides superior fastener holding under wind uplift. The laminated construction resists cracking and blow-off better than single-layer products. And the 30-year limited warranty applies regardless of whether the structure is a house or a shed.

Multi-Structure Projects

This project covered both the main shed structure and the attached lean-to — two separate roof planes with a connecting valley. Coordinating the tear-off, underlayment, and shingle installation across both planes in a single visit keeps the cost down and eliminates the scheduling complexity of returning for a second trip. Rivers Construction handles multi-structure residential roofing projects across Chittenden County with no minimum job size.

Full Cleanup Included

We bring a dump trailer to every job. Old shingles, underlayment, nails, and debris are loaded and removed the same day — not raked into a pile and left for the homeowner to deal with. The drone photo from this job shows the loaded trailer next to the finished structure. That's how we leave every site: new roof on, old materials gone, yard exactly as we found it.
