A full roof replacement begins with removing all old roofing materials down to the roof deck. The licensed pros then inspect the underlying structure for any damage or rot and make necessary repairs.

All flashing around vents, chimneys, and edges is replaced or repaired. This process ensures a completely new, protected roof system for your home.
