The work in more detail
One complete roof. A coordinated system.
Roof covering, underlying layers and ventilation belong in the same plan for a complete replacement or a new residential installation.
New residential installation
The first roof on a new build follows the building’s structural design and construction sequence. Roof shape, covering choice and installation requirements need to be coordinated.
Material & profile choices
Asphalt shingles, metal and other available coverings vary in appearance, weight and installation details. The home’s design and provider scope determine suitable full-roof options.
Underlayment, edges & transitions
A whole-roof installation considers the layers beneath the covering and details at edges and intersecting roof planes. Components need to suit the selected complete roof system.
Ventilation & project layout
Attic ventilation, access, roof pitch and material delivery affect complete replacement and new installation work. The full project also needs a plan for staging and removal of installation debris.

The complete replacement scope
A full replacement starts with the existing roof.
Removing the existing covering is part of defining a complete roof replacement. Once the whole-roof project is established, the roof deck and installation requirements can be evaluated within that scope.
The new covering is selected for the complete roof design. Color, profile, material weight and the details required by the roofing system all contribute to the finished installation.
A roof is an assembly
Coordinate the layers across every plane.
A complete replacement or new installation brings related components into one roof-wide plan.
