The mansard roof of this 1972 home was continually leaking and in need of repairs. The homeowners tasked Traver Construction with altering the roof design to make a bold statement. The new roof follows French eclectic style with a pitched roof design and details such as cast stone around casement windows, short overhands with wood corbels and cast stone quoins. One of the challenges of replacing a roof of this size is keeping the inside dry during inclement weather. This was accomplished by framing and decking the new roof configuration in six stages.
