Gardner Carpenter House (1793) - Cedar Roof Replacement

Rear overhead view of the Gardner Carpenter House - another Historic Restoration Project in Norwichtown, CT. Built in 1793, the original house (there have been some additions put on in back) needed a new roof - we specified and installed western red cedar. This view depicts the three chimney protrusions, flashed with 24 gauge red copper flashing. We also installed a red copper cleansing strip just below the ridge cap on both sides of the roof. We topped this job off with a cedar shingle ridge cap.
