When you partner with us, you can rest easy knowing our experienced team completes every roof replacement with flawless workmanship and top-quality products.
The Inspection Phase
All roofing work begins with an inspection by our team. Our factory-trained technicians will inspect your roof and surrounding areas to accurately identify any telltale signs of damage, such as:
- Leaks or water damage
- Depressions or soft spots on the roof
- Curling, thin, missing, or cracked shingles
- Noticeable temperature shifts in your home
- Shingle sediment buildup in your gutters
Once we’ve inspected your roof, we’ll tell you about our findings and provide you with an estimate.
The Roof Replacement Process
After you approve our estimate, we’ll get started on the project. Before your roof replacement begins, some ways you can prepare include:
- Protecting items in your attic
- Securing your valuables
- Removing vehicles from the driveway
- Relocating outdoor items like patio furniture and potted plants
- Arranging for children and pets to be properly supervised or stay elsewhere
And with every roof replacement, you can expect our team of factory-trained technicians to protect your property as much as possible. Protection often includes plywood and tarps that will safeguard your home’s siding, walls, and surrounding plants and bushes.
Installing Your New Roofing Materials
After we have removed all of your old roofing materials, we will install the wood decking, the drip edge, the underlayment, and finally your new roofing system, which may include ridge caps, ridge vents, and counter flashing if needed.
Cleaning the Site
Once your roof replacement is complete, we will clean up the job site so all debris has been properly discarded.
Inspecting the Finished Product
Our team will inspect the finished product, ensuring your new roof meets our high standards. Additionally, all of our roof replacements are backed by a lifetime labor warranty with no service fees.
Follow-Up
We will give you a call to confirm that you are satisfied with our products and services. We will also send out a report card so you can grade our work.
