Our New Construction Roofing Process

1

Plan Review

Contractor reviews architectural drawings to confirm specifications, identify any concerns, and propose alternatives.

2

Material Selection

Guided selection of roofing material, color, and underlayment based on local climate, code, and aesthetic goals. New Hampshire contractors typically itemize state-required upgrades separately.

3

Scheduling & Coordination

Roofing crew coordinates with framing, plumbing rough-in, and inspection schedules to keep the build on track.

4

Dry-In

Sheathing, underlayment, and ice & water shield are installed first to weather-protect the structure.

5

Final Installation

Final roofing material is installed once interior trades are complete. Ridge venting, flashings, and warranty registration close out the work.
