Waterfront home.
New roof. One day.
Rivers Construction completed a full residential shingle roof replacement on a lakefront property in Colchester, Vermont. This tight waterfront lot on the shores of Lake Champlain required careful staging and debris management to protect the property, neighboring homes, and the shoreline — all while delivering a clean, high-quality installation in a single day.
The homeowner chose Owens Corning Duration architectural shingles — one of the most trusted residential shingle systems available, with SureNail Technology for superior wind resistance and a 130 mph wind warranty. Duration's dimensional profile and subtle color blend complement the natural lakefront setting without competing with the view.
Lakefront properties in Chittenden County are exposed to more moisture, wind, and freeze-thaw cycling than inland homes. The full ice & water shield coverage we installed at every eave, valley, and penetration ensures that this roof handles whatever Lake Champlain's weather delivers — for decades to come.
