When a Highland, UT homeowner named McCall needed a roofing solution that could stand up to harsh weather and last for decades, she reached out to Signature Roofing. Our team, led by contractor Chris, provided a full roofing upgrade using our “Better” shingle package — featuring the highly-rated IKO brand Dynasty Shingle in Granite Black. Designed for wind speeds up to 130 MPH and built with ultra-durable rubberized technology, these shingles offer serious protection and long-term value.

McCall’s home had taken a beating from Utah’s intense windstorms and fluctuating temperatures, making it the perfect candidate for an insurance restoration roofing project. We started with a complete tear-off, removing all layers of old roofing materials down to the wood decking. This allows us to fully inspect the roof deck — and at no extra charge, we included up to three new sheets of decking in the event any wood was damaged or rotten.

Before the first shingle was installed, our crew re-nailed all loose decking and replaced problem areas. Then we began laying the base protection: Henry’s ice and water shield, extending 18 inches past the warm wall of the eaves and into every valley. The remaining roof surface was covered with a high-performance synthetic underlayment to ensure a watertight barrier under the shingles.

We then installed the complete IKO Dynasty shingle system, including starter strips, hip and ridge caps, and color-matched drip edge metal. The Dynasty series is known for its impact resistance, Class 3 hail rating, and high-grip sealant strip — helping roofs like McCall’s resist extreme wind uplift, even during Highland’s strongest storms.

Proper ventilation is key to a healthy roof. That’s why we replaced all old box vents with new units to ensure airflow keeps attic temperatures balanced and extends the life of the roof. We also upgraded all pipe boots with our Ultimate Lifetime Pipe Boots — designed to outlast standard options and prevent leaks around roof penetrations.

Signature Roofing goes the extra mile during installation. Every piece of flashing was either replaced or carefully reset, including components around skylights, antennas, and even a swamp cooler. We took care to detach and reattach all reusable items safely.

As part of the project, we also tackled the garage roof — removing the old shingle system and replacing it with matching IKO Dynasty shingles for a consistent, polished look across the entire property. This not only boosts curb appeal but improves durability and value across all structures.

To wrap up the job, our team replaced 242 linear feet of gutter and downspouts along the home’s perimeter. We used 5” standing seam aluminum K-style gutters for long-lasting water management, plus 3” downspouts on the west side, strategically angled to connect to a French drain on the home’s southwest corner. We also installed new neck bends and tail ends on 70 feet of downspouts to improve drainage and prevent future erosion or flooding around the foundation.

Every Signature Roofing job includes a complete site cleanup — we don’t leave a mess behind. Our crew ran magnets throughout McCall’s property to pick up nails and debris, leaving the yard safe and clean.
