Whether due to age, typical wear, and tear, or a natural disaster, every roof needs to be replaced eventually. Homeowners can replace their roofs independently, but they should hire reputable roof replacement contractors for the best results. Professionals can do the job better and more quickly.
What's the process of replacing a roof?
According to the narrator, the first step of roof replacement is the delivery of the new roof, including the underlayment and attachments like nails.
The second step of this process is the roofer arriving at the client's home.
The third step is the roofer ensuring items inside the house won't be damaged. To do this, roofers usually use tarps to protect the entire home.
The fourth step comprises the roofer removing all the existing roofing materials, including the underlayment. In this step, the roofer will check for rotting on the roof decking.
The fifth step comprises the roofer cleaning the gutters and stripping off any debris.
The sixth step comprises the roof installation. The roofer will start by replacing any rotting decking; then, they will install ice and water shields in the required areas. The roofer will finish by installing the underlayment and the actual shingles.
After installation is done, the roofer will clean up.
The final step is a quality check to ensure the roof is sturdy.
