Challenge
While ridge vents have been praised as a front runner of home ventilation, the slant vent is also a tried & true product for many homes. Also known as ‘turtle vents’ or ‘box vents’, these unassuming little squares can be found peppered along the roofs in any given subdivision. As common as they are, they are another item that many homeowners like to keep inspected during their preventative check ups.
Solution
This homeowner had visible damage to her box vent & it was in need of replacement. We also were able to perform an overall roof maintenance on the home, sealing penetrations & inspecting the shingles for any signs of damage. In addition to full roof replacements, our team is qualified to keep your home performing at its best. Give us a call for your free inspection!
