Ep 8. Roof Raff

In Rescue My Renovation season 3, episode 8 entitled "Roof Raff", the homeowners are experiencing serious issues with their roof. The couple had initially called in contractors to repair their leaking roof, but the workers had left without completing the job. As a result, the leak persisted and the homeowners were left with a costly mess.

The host of the show, John DeSilvia, arrives and assesses the roof. He quickly discovers that the shingles are old and in disrepair, and that the previous contractors had done a shoddy job of the repairs. In addition to the leak, the hosts suspect that there may be mold and other issues hiding in the roof that need to be addressed.

To repair the roof, John and his team must first remove the damaged shingles and any underlying layers that have been affected by the leak. This involves a significant amount of work, as the roof is steep and has multiple difficult angles. They then replace the damaged areas with new shingles and ensure that they are properly installed to prevent future leaks.

As they work on the roof, the team also assesses other areas of the home that may have been affected by the leak. They discover that there is indeed mold in some areas and work to remediate it before it becomes worse. They also take the opportunity to install proper ventilation in the attic to prevent any future mold growth.

Throughout the episode, John and his team emphasize the importance of finding trustworthy contractors who will do a quality job in repairing a home. They stress that homeowners should always check references and licenses before hiring anyone to do work on their home, to avoid shoddy workmanship and unnecessary costly repairs.

By the end of the episode, the homeowners are thrilled with the repairs that have been made to their home. The new roof not only looks great, but performs better than ever. John and his team have successfully rescued another renovation, leaving the homeowners with a safer and more comfortable living space for years to come.
