What To Expect During A Roof Installation

What To Expect During A Roof Installation

There are a few home repairs over the course of owning a home that are considered major projects. Having a swimming pool installed, replacing an A/C unit, and getting a new roof are some of those major projects. But, don’t fret.  With the right roofing company, your roof installation will be a fast, easy project!

Having a new roof installed consists of multiple steps.  1) You will choose a professional roofing company.  2)  They will conduct an inspection.  If your roof needs replacement, you will move on to 3)  Choosing your roof materials.  4)  Your roof will be prepped.  5)  The new roof will be installed.  6)  A final inspection will be performed.  7)  The roofing crew will clean up any materials.

At Seal Tight Roofing Experts we want to take the worry out of your roof installation.  With our professional team of roofing experts, your roofing project will flow seamlessly, and your new roof installation will be completed in a timely manner.  We are efficient and strive to offer excellent customer service.  In this article, we will go over the steps required for a roof installation (replacement) so you will know what to expect and eliminate any concerns you may have.

Choose a Professional Roofing Company

It is important to choose a professional roofing company.  You should choose a company with excellent reviews.  While choosing a handyman who charges less may seem like a good idea for your budget, you may end up paying dearly in the future.  If they are not a trained roofer, they may not follow the proper steps to ensure you have a leak-free roof.  Additionally, they may not know all the local codes to allow your roof to pass inspection.  You may not care about that right now, but you need a quality, properly installed roof to withstand the tropical storms and hurricanes in Florida.  Additionally, if you ever sell your home, your roof will have to pass an inspection.  It will save you money in the long run to pay a little more for a professional roofing company like Seal Tight Roofing Experts.  

Inspection and ConsultationTime

Prior to tearing your old roof off, we will send out an expert to perform a roof inspection.  He will let you know if your roof needs repairs or a full replacement.  If it is time for a roof replacement, you will then sit down with our expert to choose the roofing material and color that best suits your needs and budget.  We can install a variety of roof types – asphalt shingles, tile, or metal.  

Roof Preparation

Preparation is pretty simple.  We will cover landscaping that is near the house so we don’t damage any bushes, flowers, etc.  We will remove your old roof.  Those materials will be deposited into a dumpster.  

New Roof Installation

The underlayment will be laid and your new roofing materials will be installed.  A roof project does not take long, but there are factors that affect how long it will take.  Weather is a consideration.  If it is rainy or very windy, it is not safe for our installation team to be on ladders or your roof.  Poor weather may cause a delay.  We will not leave your home exposed, however,  If we must stop, we will provide the proper protection, such as heavy tarps so your home stays dry.  The size of your home and the materials you choose will also affect how long the project takes.  

Roof installation is a noisy process.  We aren’t going to lie and say you won’t know we are there.  When you hear footsteps on your roof, it isn’t Santa!  It’s our installers!  You will also hear the steady sound of a nail gun.  If you have children who still nap or pets who don’t like noise, you may want to make appropriate plans for them during the roof installation.  Taking all that in to account, a new roof generally takes 1-3 days to complete.

Final Inspection and Cleanup

A final inspection will need to be done to ensure that everything was done properly and to current, local codes.  Because of our professionalism and expertise, we are confident that your roof will pass any and all inspections with flying colors.

Our installers will then get to work ensuring that your property looks like it did before they arrived with the exception of your beautiful new roof!  We will remove debris and uncover your landscaping.  Now it’s time for your neighbors to admire your new roof!
