Shingle Roof Replacement in Newberry, FL
A single-story Newberry home with a hip roof, a covered front porch under its own gable and a two-car garage, re-roofed in late May 2025. The old shingles came off down to the deck, and the house now wears CertainTeed Landmark shingles in Pewter, according to the bundle wrappers in the job photos.

What you are looking at
From the street the roof reads as a soft, light gray, with darker and lighter shingles mixed through each slope. The main roof is a hip, which means every side slopes down to an eave, and a front gable rises over the covered porch. The front and garage views were taken on a late May afternoon, with tall pines behind the house and a sky full of building clouds. The porch photo is from that same morning, and the close views from up on the roof are from the evening before, under a clear sky.
Most of the work is hidden under the shingles, and the progress photos show it. After tear-off, a few damaged sections of the wood deck were cut out and replaced. A black self-adhered membrane went into the valleys first, then a gray synthetic underlayment printed with the Brehm Roofing logo covered the rest of the deck, held down with red plastic-capped nails. Tape-measure photos record the nail spacing on the deck and on the underlayment.
White drip edge runs along the eaves and the rakes. Drip edge is the bent metal strip at the roof edge that lets water fall clear of the fascia board instead of soaking into it.
Along the main ridge, a ridge vent runs under rounded cap shingles. Hot, damp attic air escapes through the narrow slots on each side of it, which matters in a Florida summer. The hips are finished with thick cap shingles that overlap like a row of scales, and the valley where the porch gable meets the main roof is shingled over with a clean, straight line where the two slopes meet.
On the back slope, two plumbing vent pipes and a hooded exhaust vent come through the roof in black flashings, under a stand of tall pines. Out front, a crape myrtle in bloom stands beside the porch, where gray lap siding, shake-style siding in the gable and dark plum shutters sit under the white fascia.
Photos from an early May visit show what the new roof replaced: gray shingles with creased and lifted tabs, several patches in mismatched darker shingles, and metal box vents near the peak. With pines this close to the house and afternoon storms through most of the summer, valleys that drain cleanly and tabs that lie flat are what keep water moving off this roof.
