How It Works
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.
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.
