Lakeview is a neighborhood reborn. After Hurricane Katrina in 2005 devastated nearly every home in the area, Lakeview has been almost entirely rebuilt with modern construction methods and updated building codes. At Lapeyre Roofing, we understand the unique nature of Lakeview's housing stock - newer homes built to stricter standards, yet still facing the same Gulf Coast weather challenges including lake-effect humidity from nearby Lake Pontchartrain.
Whether your post-Katrina home needs its first roof replacement after 15-20 years of service, you're maintaining one of the few pre-storm historic homes that survived, or you want to upgrade to FORTIFIED certification for maximum hurricane protection, Lapeyre Roofing has the expertise Lakeview homeowners need. Our team understands modern construction techniques, current building codes, and the specific demands of lakefront living including increased humidity, salt air exposure, and the potential for severe weather.

FAQ
Answering your questions about roofing for Lakeview homes.
Most architectural shingle roofs installed after Katrina (2006-2010) are now 15-19 years old. While these roofs can last 20-30 years depending on quality and maintenance, it's worth having an inspection to assess condition. Signs like curling shingles, granule loss, or leaks indicate it may be time for replacement.
Post-Katrina building codes improved significantly, but they're not the same as FORTIFIED certification. Many 2006-2010 homes have better roof-to-wall connections and improved shingle ratings, but may lack sealed roof decks and other FORTIFIED requirements. When replacing, consider upgrading to FORTIFIED for verified protection and insurance savings.
Yes. Proximity to Lake Pontchartrain means higher humidity, occasional salt spray, and lake-effect weather patterns. We recommend enhanced ventilation to combat moisture buildup, algae-resistant shingles, and materials rated for coastal or near-coastal environments. Proper attic ventilation is especially important in Lakeview.
