Breakdown of Roof Replacement Process
1. Free Inspection and Estimate
We offer free inspections and estimates for any job so that homeowners can receive full transparency of their situation. Our team ensures customers receive an honest, thorough evaluation of the entire project, detailing every finding and recommendation from our experts to guarantee we install a safe, reliable solution for your home.
Our inspector will provide the estimate for the job and discuss the materials we plan on using, along with breaking down the full process in detail.
2. Planning
Once a customer chooses us for their project, our representative will discuss the logistics of what they discovered during their inspection and what the next course of action may look like. We will work with the customer on how they might want the project to look and the most efficient solution for their budget and the quality of the roofing system.
Our consultants will also plan out the timeline and exactly how the project will unfold, making sure the customer is fully transparent about what we plan to do and how it will be done.
3. Preparation
Our team prioritizes protecting your home in every way, and that includes the cleanliness and safety of other areas of the house. This includes protecting areas like windows, the side of the house, and the entire landscape of the house outside. We also ensure that safety equipment is set up throughout the process to protect your roofing system.
4. Old Roof Removal and Roof Repairs
We begin the replacement process by removing each aspect of the old roofing system, tearing out old plywood, shingles, flashing, nails, and any other accessories on the roof.
After stripping out the old roofing materials, we will further inspect the underlayment and roof decking to determine if there is further damage that needs repair. Making sure the foundation remains solid is critical for the shingles to stay intact.
There may be additional holes or unaccounted damages underneath the removed shingles that would require further repairs before the new roof installation gets underway.
5. Installations
All the magic happens once the removal and repairs are complete, when the roofing system is finally installed. Our installers will gear up, get up on the roof, and install your new roofing system.
Listed below are the common materials we will install:
- SealoronXT Ice & Water Barrier that peels and sticks to the plywood, preventing water from getting under the shingles
- CDX plywood to replace all damaged plywood decking
- VeloraOne underlayment to cover the rest of the roof deck
- Galvanized flashings to prevent water leaks
- Asphalt shingles (Starter Shingles, Dynasty Architectural Shingles, Hip and Ridge Shingles, etc.)
- Ridge shingles can be installed to protect the roof’s ridge and hips
- Ridge vents can be installed to improve ventilation and reduce moisture buildup by allowing air to escape through the attic
We will have a foreman and managers on site with the installers throughout the entire process and will be consistently checking in on the work being done, making sure the roof is done right and properly installed at a high quality.
6. Cleanup and Final Inspection
The entire team will continuously ensure the workspace is protected and the rest of the property remains in good condition. This makes the cleanup process flawless as we remove any excess dirt or debris left behind during construction. Our goal is for you to look around and struggle to realize our roofers were even there.
We will conduct one final inspection to confirm everything is in compliance with how we promised to install the Klaus Roofing System, “the Klaus Roofing Way.”
