Dennison Exterior Solutions & Gutter Topper as roofing and gutter contractors in Berrien Center Michigan replaced the roof on this home after it had been hit by a storm with hail. The damage to the roof is what inspired the customer to reach out to us and schedule an initial estimate appointment. In addition to there being hail damage, another issue that was present were ice dams. The original installers of the existing roof didn’t provide the roof with adequate ventilation, installing the ridge vent improperly and not giving the roof enough exhaust vents. We made sure to fix those problems when installing the new roof. The homeowners also wanted to have Gutter Topper with a Heated Ice Release System installed. This was to avoid climbing up seasonally to clean out the debris from the gutters and to prevent ice build up. Lastly since this roof had skylights, new Velux skylights were installed.
Project Location: 9466 Fox Run, Berrien Center, MI 49102

Underlayment’s
Dennison Exterior Solutions & Gutter Topper Winter Guard Ice & Water Shield
Dennison Roofing as Professional Roofing Contractors in Berrien Center Michigan uses CertainTeed’s WinterGuard waterproofing shingle underlayment, which is the solution for winning the battle against water penetration in your roof’s most vulnerable places. WinterGuard is a composite material of asphalt polymers, formed into a rolled sheet. The asphalt makes it vapor-tight, and the polymers make the asphalt elastic and sticky. This protective barrier is able to stretch and seal around nails driven through it. At Scott Dennison Roofing our customers demand excellence and the peace-of-mind in having WinterGuard installed over the entire roof deck even though this process adds additional costs to the project but it then eliminates leaks anywhere on the roof.
Dennison Roofing as Roof Repair Contractors in Berrien Center Michigan even installs ice and water shield under each area when hired to repair roofs. Think about the benefit of having ice and water shield adhering itself to the entire roof deck, where walls meet lower roof-lines including penetrations such as furnace / water heater vent stacks, soil pipes, chimneys, antenna satellite fasteners, skylights and any other protrusions through the roof. This process eliminates all potential future callbacks.
Dennison Exterior Solutions & Gutter Topper WinterGuard seals the roof against infiltration of water into the home due to ice dams and wind-driven rain that also seals water-tight around each nail that is driven through it. The sand surface of Winter Guard also provides a huge safety factor for installers while walking on top of the shield during the roof installation process.

How Gutter Topper Keeps You Safe!
Gutter Topper is a permanent solution to having to constantly climb dangerous rickety old ladders putting your health at risk to keep you gutters clean.
Every year, over 100,000 homeowners fall from ladders and are seriously injured. Many fall from heights as low as 10 feet and spend an average of $4,000 on hospital co-pays, prescription drugs, lost wages, and physical therapy.
Ask yourself, is it worth the risk?
How the Dennison Roofing Gutter Topper System Protects You, Your Home & Keeps You Safe!
Besides protecting you from climbing a ladder to clean out your gutters year after year, Gutter Topper protects your property by eliminating clogged gutters.
All this protection is enhanced by the value and curb appeal that Gutter Topper adds to your home:
The Heated Gutter Topper System
The Gutter Topper gutter cover system already includes a unique Ice Release™ system. The Ice Release™ system uses the natural expansion and contraction of the aluminum panel as the temperature outside fluctuates. This process helps move the ice off the edge of your roof and onto the ground.
The Heated Ice Release™ system uses a tough low voltage cable which helps eliminate icicles at the eave edges of your home. This cable can be installed inside your existing gutter system with the Gutter Topper gutter covers installed on top.
We simply choose a downspout location that is nearest an electrical outlet and notch a hole on the side of the downspout and insert the special cable. This cable is then fed down to the end of your downspout where the water flows out and then is run back up the downspout to where the downspout connects to your gutters. The cable is then is routed and is installed on the inside bottom of your gutter to the end of your gutter system. We then attach the cable to the underside of the Gutter Topper gutter covers.
In the late fall customers normally turn on their system and leave it on for the entire winter. Our low voltage system does not use much energy at all.
Testing and customer experiences have told us that it is best to leave the system on at all time rather than to fail to remember to turn the system on at least 6 hours before snowfall. If you fail to do so it may take several days for the system to catch up and melt any ice that has formed. In addition, under heavy snow conditions we have found that it may also take several days to melt off any icicles however, experience has shown that on average during the worst conditions icicles will be kept to a minimum and no larger that your fingers.
