What This Project Involved
This project shows the roof deck prepared and ready, the shingle installation in progress, and the completed roof. The deck was fully exposed before any new material went down.
What Homeowners Can Learn
From This Project
Seeing the prepared deck before installation is a good reminder that what's underneath the shingles gets addressed before the visible roof goes on, not after.
A shingle installation in progress shows the underlayment and starter course going down first, in a specific order, before the field shingles are installed.
What We Look For
What We Look At Before Installation
Deck condition
The deck needs to be sound and properly fastened before underlayment and shingles go on.
Flashing points
Chimneys, vents, and valleys need flashing that's planned before installation, not added as an afterthought.
Ventilation
Attic and roof ventilation affect how the finished roofing system performs over time.
Roof geometry
Valleys, dormers, and roof lines all affect how shingle courses are laid out for a clean, consistent finish.
Roof Care
Maintaining A New Shingle Roof
A new shingle roof still benefits from periodic attention. Keeping gutters clear, removing debris that collects in valleys, and addressing moss before it spreads all help the roof perform for its full expected life.
An occasional inspection, especially after a major storm, is the easiest way to catch a small issue before it becomes a bigger one.
