Our Shingle Replacement Process
We follow a detailed and methodical approach to ensure your roof is reliable and aesthetically sound. Each step is designed to address your specific needs while maintaining safety and efficiency.
1. Initial Roof Inspection
Our process begins with a thorough on-site roof inspection. We examine the current condition of your shingles, the underlying structure, and any signs of damage such as cracks, curling, or
missing shingles.
We also check for potential issues like water damage, mold, or weakened decking that may affect the replacement process. This helps us identify the exact areas that require attention.
Photos and measurements are taken to document the roof's condition. This detailed assessment allows us to prepare an accurate plan and estimate for the project.
2. Personalized Recommendations
Based on the inspection, we provide tailored recommendations. We consider your roof's age, style, and existing materials to suggest the best shingle options.
We explain the benefits and lifespan of various shingles, such as asphalt, architectural, or composite materials, allowing you to make an informed choice.
Our suggestions also include color matching to maintain or enhance your home’s curb appeal. We provide you with a clear breakdown of costs and timelines so you can plan accordingly.
3. Safe Removal and Cleanup
We carefully remove old shingles, taking precautions to protect your home’s structure and landscaping. Our team uses specialized tools to avoid damaging the decking.
Old materials and debris are collected and disposed of according to local regulations. We leave the job site clean and clear of nails, dust, and other hazards.
After cleanup, we inspect the decking again to ensure it's in good condition before installing new shingles, guaranteeing a solid base for your new roof.
