Steps of a Roof Replacement
A roof replacement can be complex, and it is best performed by a professional. Hiring a professional, experienced, and friendly team like Hall Roofing and Construction will help make sure the job is completed efficiently and safely.
The first step of a roof replacement is choosing the right materials for your home. Some of the most common aspects include:
- Wood shakes - When we talk about wood shakes, we are referring to wood roofing material that is created by splitting thin rectangles from a wooden log. Wood shakes are sawn on one side and split on the other side, creating an appearance that is thicker and with a rougher texture.
- Metal roofs -Metal has become a more common roofing choice in recent years. This could be due to the fact that they are extremely durable and can be installed right over existing shingles. There is also lots of variety in this type of roof, and they can be created to look like shingles or other types of traditional roofs.
- Composition slate -Slate shingles are a modern rendition of classic roofs. They are made of a combination of plastic, rubber, and synthetic slate to create the appearance of uniqueness of authentic slate. Composite slates are manufactured to have uniform sizes and have a range of textures and colors.
- Tile -Tile roofing is a great choice for roofs that experience hot weather or that have to deal with exposure salt air. This is because they are resistant to water, frost, fire, wind, and insect damage.
- Asphalt common shingles -This is a waterproof roofing material with a long lifespan and are some of the most common roofs on houses today. They tend to be less expensive than other materials like slate or tile. Asphalt shingles typically come in two varieties: fiberglass and organic.
After we have selected the perfect roof for your needs, we will continue the project with the following steps:
