Started backing the knob down a litltle at a time and saw no change.
If you were using the AD ATT-1 attenuator, you should have seen channels getting worse as you turned it down. It can turn down about 3-3/4 turns.

You didn't answer this question:

Were you using the attic antenna before the new roof? If you were, was there any change in reception after the new roof?
What equipment are you using for reception? How many TVs do you have?

Have you tried another TV with the antenna?

Have you tried a double rescan to clear the tuner memory?

When all of those are checked, then it is time to try a preamp.
