Knowing what happens on replacement day makes the job far less stressful. Most replacements follow the same sequence.
Before the crew arrives
Move vehicles out of the driveway and away from the house, clear patio items and anything hanging on walls under the roofline, and let neighbors know about the noise.
Tear-off
Old roofing is stripped to the deck, which is inspected. Rotted or damaged decking is repaired, and the roof is dried in so it is protected the same day.
Installation
Underlayment, flashing and the new roof system go on to the manufacturer specifications. Vents and penetrations are detailed and sealed.
Daily protection and cleanup
A roof that is open at the end of the day or when weather turns gets dried in or tarped. The crew sweeps the yard with a magnetic sweeper and clears debris before leaving.
Final walkthrough and warranty
The foreman walks the finished roof with you, and the permit inspection follows. Warranty details are given in writing.
