Amstill Roofing's Friendswood Roof Replacement Process
As we continue to navigate Houston’s peak hurricane season, homeowners may start to wonder about a Friendswood roof replacement and whether or not they may need one this year. In this article, our Houston roof experts will discuss what you can expect when we complete a roof replacement, should you need one,
Step 1: Get A Friendswood Roof Inspection
Before you schedule a Friendswood roof replacement, it’s best to be certain that a new roof is actually what your home needs. To do this, we recommend that you first contact us for a free, no-obligation roof inspection and estimate. Once we arrive, we will carefully look at your roof and check for any spots that are a cause for concern. If we determine that Friendswood roof replacement is what’s best for your safety, we will help you get in contact with your home insurance provider so you can file for Houston weather and storm-related roof damage insurance claims. If your insurance coverage isn’t as planned, you could also consider financing your roof replacement.
Step 2: Prepare For Your Friendswood Roof Replacement
Once you have determined the best way to pay for your brand new roof, it’s time to get to work on your Friendswood roof replacement! Roof replacement can be a bit messy, so we’ll start by implementing our Amstill Homeshield, which protects your landscaping and windows from the mess that comes with a roof replacement.
Step 3: Tearing Down Your Current Roofing
We want to make sure your Friendswood roof replacement is flawless, so the next step is ensuring your home has a solid nail base system. This serves as our foundation for the rest of the roof replacement.
Step 4: Deck Protection
Next, we’ll secure the edges with waterproof protection, followed by the rest of your roof decking. In Houston’s climate, this is essential to long-lasting roof shingles.
Step 5: Reflashing And Sealing
Chimneys and skylights require adequate flashing to make certain that water doesn’t make its way into your roof. We will replace existing flashing with newer, sturdier material and we’ll also seal vents so the outside elements don’t penetrate your brand new roofing system.
Step 6: Perimeter Fastening
Once all of this has been done, we fasten the perimeter of your roofing for even more security that will last for years to come.
Step 7: Install Roof Shingles
Finally, we can install the roof shingles you selected for your Friendswood roof replacement. We will install them according to manufacturer guidelines. We will also install high-profile shingles over your roof ridges.
Step 8: Clean Up
Now that your new roof is in place, it’s time to clean up. We’ll blow off any leaves or debris that could have blown onto your new roof and gutter system, followed by picking up any nails that may have been left behind.
