What Are the Key Steps of Installing a New Roof?

The key steps of installing a new roof are assessment, safe removal, system-based installation, and a final quality check. Most issues come from poor prep or ventilation, so we verify the roof deck and airflow before any materials go on. Our crews use top‑quality underlayment, vents, and gutters with professional installation for homes and businesses, a structured approach we also perform throughout the Grosse Pointe Shores area.

Typical sequence our technicians follow:

  • 2-hour roof and attic assessment; plan and quote review.
  • Tear-off of old materials and debris haul-away.
  • Repair or replace damaged roof decking as needed.
  • Install underlayment and flashings at chimneys, skylights, and penetrations.
  • Set ventilation components and roof vents.
  • Install shingle or metal roofing with proper fastening.
  • Install gutters or gutter protection if part of the scope.
  • Final walkthrough and discuss maintenance plan options.

If water is entering your home or the roof is sagging, avoid walking on it and call a professional.
