Rochester Rooftop Parties

May 27, 2016 by Sunset Roofing

As we remember our fallen soldiers this Memorial Day weekend, the barbecues will be burning hot! Memorial Day is the unofficial beginning of summer, and we found some great rooftop party ideas for those of you with a view that want to enjoy it this weekend!

You don’t have to be in a big city to find a beautiful rooftop oasis. There are some local venues in Rochester, NY with great rooftop areas. These are great places to stop by during your holiday weekend, especially if you are not lucky enough to have a roof that you can party on!

Radisson in Downtown

The Radisson in Downtown Rochester has a great rooftop with views of downtown. It also has a pool and is a great place to unwind and take in the Rochester skyline!

The Strathallan Rooftop

The Strathallan, a beautiful boutique hotel located in the East End of Rochester, is another great area with a view.

Aside from the bar and garden it also has a roof deck bonfire area. If you’re in the area, you should definitely check it out and enjoy some delicious food and drinks with family and friends!

We hope you have a fun and safe Memorial Day Weekend!

Skylight Before and After

May 19, 2016 by Sunset Roofing

This homeowner inherited this homemade skylight from the previous owner. An ice dam two winters ago left some damage to the area around it as well. This resulted in the problem in the image you see below.

Skylight Problems

As you can see, the homeowner also attempted a quick fix by using incorrect insulation around the skylight to minimize leaks along with patching up a section of the roof.

Sunset Roofing Solution

The homeowner contacted us and we sent our experts over. We installed a new Velux skylight with 20-year leak free warranty and repaired that patch of roofing. Our team also installed a new vent box and flashing kit. A new ice shield was installed to help prevent ice dams in the future, and any rotted roof decking was replaced.

Afterward is a perfect installation with new roof decking. The result is so seamless you don’t know which part of the roof was replaced.

The new vent box matches the roof and it doesn’t stick out like the old one did.

With a new fixed skylight that lets in light without the rain/snow finding its way in, we left the job with a very happy customer!
