Removal of old roof:
It is crucial to remove the old roofing adequately before starting the new installation process. Sometimes, people install roofing layers over the old roof to save money and time, but this can cause damage to the rooftop. The additional layers on the top may weaken the roofing structure and decrease the house’s value in the market. It is advisable to get the old roof removed and then install the new one. This process may consume time and money, but it will be beneficial in the long run. Our inspection team can visit the location and can give you a clear picture.
Evaluation of the roof:
After the old roof removal, the second step is evaluating the sheathing that would go on the roof. The roof sheet used is a flat panel, and these sheets are used to provide support to the shingles.
Special measures:
Suppose the construction needs to occur in the winter season, especially during the snowfall requires additional measures. Barriers need to be installed at the edge and around the roof. Nails are used to making sure that the roof sheathing gives it stability and strength.
Drip Edge:
The drip edge is used in the installation process in two parts—one at the lower part of the roof and the other before the underlayment. Install the metal drip edge with the bottom edge over the barrier for ice and water with the help of nails. They protect water seepage under the surface of the rooftop.
Roof underlaying installation:
The roof underlaying is the final process. The rolls of underlaying are secured with the help of a nail outside the edges and the center. The nail caps should go above the drip edge. The roofing underlayment is rolled down and secured with the help of nail caps.
Installation on different types of roofs.
