What to Expect from the Roofing Installation Process

  • Site Preparation- Before we get started on the roofing installation process itself, we’ll make sure to protect your property. We will cover your nearby shrubs and other landscaping elements to protect them from any falling debris, and we’ll bring in a construction dumpster to contain all the old roofing material and any scraps that we produce.
  • Removal- The first real step in the roofing installation process is to remove the old roof. We will tear away your old shingles and examine your old sheathing to see if it has been damaged. If there are damaged areas, we will carefully cut the old sheathing away and replace it with new material to ensure your new roof provides effective, reliable protection.
  • Roof Preparation- The next step is to install all the underlayment and other materials (such as the drip edge) that will ensure your roof provides seamless protection from the rain.
  • Installation of Shingles- Lastly, our team will install your new shingles, making sure each is placed precisely in order to create an impenetrable barrier against moisture. Once we’re finished with that, we’ll inspect your roof to make sure everything is installed correctly, clean up your yard, and haul away the debris.
