What to Expect During a Roof Installation

At Exterior Home Solutions, we pride ourselves on our expertise and dedication in providing top-quality roof installation services. When you’re looking to get a new roof, it’s essential to understand the process. In this article, we’ll walk you through what to expect during a roof installation.

The Pre-Installation Process

  1. Assessment & Quote: Before we even start, our team evaluates your home to determine the scope of work. We’ll then offer a transparent quote, ensuring you’re well-informed about costs and timelines.
  2. Material Selection: While we specialize in asphalt shingles, there’s a variety of styles and colors to choose from. We’ll guide you in selecting the best option for your home’s aesthetics and protection needs.

Steps in Roof Installation

  1. Removing the Old Roofing: The first step involves the careful removal of your existing roofing materials to ensure a smooth surface for the new installation.
  2. Preparation of the Roof Deck: Once the old materials are removed, we inspect and prepare the roof deck. This stage ensures a stable base for the new roof.
  3. Installation of Underlayment: This is a protective barrier that goes under the shingles. It offers an added layer of protection from moisture and the elements.
  4. Shingle Installation: This is where the magic happens. Our team will expertly lay down the asphalt shingles, ensuring each one is properly aligned and secured.
  5. Final Inspection: We don’t just wrap up after installation. A comprehensive inspection follows to guarantee that every inch of your new roof meets our stringent standards.

Post-Installation Care

Though asphalt shingles are low-maintenance, they still need a touch of care. Here are some brief pointers:

  1. Regular Inspection: While we ensure top-notch installation, it’s always good to have an occasional look at your roof, especially after harsh weather conditions.
  2. Gutter Cleaning: Keeping gutters clean ensures water drains off your roof properly, promoting a longer lifespan for your shingles.
