Construction Defect Center Now Urges Homeowners Who Have A Roof With The Atlas Chalet Shingle And No Way To Fix The Roof To Call Them About Possible Help
(PRWEB) July 24, 2013 -- The Construction Defect Center says, "We want to hear from any homeowner, if they have a roof with the Atlas Chalet shingle product, because according to court records, it is alleged these roofing shingles began to blister within the first year of installation and show significant loss of granulation, and premature cracking. Unfortunately, it is impossible to have a roof replaced with a newer version of the Atlas Chalet shingle, or to replace sections of the roof's shingles, because Atlas no longer makes the Chalet shingle." Based on court records Atlas Chalet roofing shingles were installed on homes in Ohio, Michigan, New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Kansas, Illinois, Indiana, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Missouri, Mississippi, Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, and other states. The Construction Defect Center is urging homeowners whose roof has Atlas Chalet shingles to contact them immediately at 866-714-6466, especially if the homeowner has unsuccessfully attempted to get the manufacturer replace this specific type of roof shingle.
What is a Atlas Chalet Shingle? According to court records, the Atlas Chalet was a shingle that was manufactured to provide a dimensional appearance in a granule overlay shingle. It is not an “architectural shingle” but rather achieved this look by utilizing random color palettes in a double thickness and creating a shadow line. The result is a 3 tab shingle that provides the eye-appeal of an architectural shingle. The Atlas Chalet shingle was supposedly created to provide an affordable shingle that has the eye appeal of the more expensive architectural shingle. The Construction Defect Center says,"If you are a homeowner with a roofing product called the Atlas Chalet shingle please call us immediately at 866-714-6466, because according to court records this product is no longer being manufactured by the company, that created this specific type of roofing shingle, and it has been alleged in federal court there could be issues with the Atlas Chalet shingle related to cracking, blistering, and or curling." http://ConstructionDefectCenter.Com
