When Chris and Caitlyn in American Fork, UT noticed some aging and wind-related wear on their roof, they didn’t want a patch job — they wanted it done right. They called Signature Roofing to restore not just the look of the home, but its long-term performance. Our team scheduled a full tear-off and replacement, using top-tier IKO Cambridge shingles to ensure maximum weather resistance and curb appeal.

IKO Cambridge Shingles + Full Roof Prep

We started with a full removal of the old roofing system, tearing everything off down to the bare decking. This allowed our crew to inspect every inch of the wood underneath. Loose decking was re-nailed, and a few damaged boards were replaced on-site as part of our standard protocol. Quality starts with the bones of the roof, not just the surface.

From there, we installed synthetic underlayment, drip edge metal, starter strips, and ice and water shield — the components that keep a roof sealed from snowmelt, rain, and ice dams. On top, we matched the new IKO Cambridge shingles as closely as possible to the original ones for a seamless blend.

A big upgrade on this project was the ridge vent system. Ridge venting is one of the smartest ways to improve attic ventilation. It helps reduce heat buildup in summer and moisture accumulation in winter, both of which can cut a roof’s life short if left unchecked. We installed new ridge caps over the entire structure for both ventilation and a clean finished look.

Flashing, Pipe Boots & Roof Accessories Done Right

Roof details matter. We replaced all existing box vents and pipe boots with high-durability alternatives, including our Ultimate Lifetime Pipe Boots. Flashings were swapped where needed, and every reusable feature — from skylights to satellite dishes — was safely detached and reinstalled.

As part of the install, we sealed all exposed fasteners, pipe jacks, and vents with professional-grade polyurethane caulk. A gutter blow-out and cleanup was included too, ensuring Chris and Caitlyn didn’t have to deal with leftover debris or roof nails in the yard.

Not every roof job needs to be flashy. But every one should be thorough — and that’s what Signature Roofing delivered on this project in American Fork.
