When homeowners in Brentwood started noticing aging shingles, faded shutters, and cracked siding around their home in a neighborhood off of North Road, they wanted more than just repairs — they wanted the entire exterior to feel updated, cohesive, and protected for the long term. This project involved a full asphalt roof replacement, shutter replacement, and targeted siding repairs to completely refresh the appearance of the home while improving durability against New Hampshire’s harsh weather conditions. The existing roof was nearing the end of its useful life and had begun showing signs of wear common throughout older homes in Southern New Hampshire. In addition to the roof issues, the home’s original green shutters had become dated and visually disconnected from the rest of the exterior. The siding also had multiple areas with cracked and broken panels caused by years of weather exposure, seasonal expansion and contraction and general wear and tear The homeowners wanted: - A long-lasting roofing system - A more modern curb appeal - Better exterior protection - A cohesive color palette - Repairs completed professionally without piecing together multiple contractors For the roof replacement, our team installed: Owens Corning Duration architectural shingles in Onyx Black with matching black drip edge. The deep contrast of the Onyx Black shingles dramatically transformed the look of the home and paired perfectly with the new black shutters. The result was a cleaner, sharper exterior appearance that immediately modernized the property while maintaining the character of the neighborhood. One of the most noticeable parts of this transformation was the shutter upgrade. The original green shutters visually dated the home and clashed with the new roofing system. We removed the old shutters and replaced them with new black shutters that tied directly into the roof color and trim accents. This simple but strategic design change completely elevated the curb appeal of the property. A lot of homeowners underestimate how much impact shutters can have on a home’s appearance. When coordinated properly with the roof color, they can make the entire exterior feel intentional and high-end without requiring a full remodel. Siding Repairs Throughout the Home During the project, our crew also identified and replaced multiple sections of cracked and damaged siding around the property. Rather than ignoring isolated damage, the homeowners wanted the house fully refreshed while the roofing work was already underway. We carefully matched and replaced damaged siding sections throughout the home to restore: Weather protection Exterior appearance Structural integrity in exposed areas Overall consistency of the facade These repairs helped complete the “full facelift” effect the homeowners were looking for.
