Asphalt shingle roofing is by far the most common roofing material used in residential roofing today, typically lasting 15-30 years!
Available in a wide range of prices, sizes and colors, it is the most affordable roofing material that’s appropriate for steep-sloped roofs. Ease of installation and low material cost are the primary reasons for shingle roofing popularity. This relatively low-maintenance material, however, can be easily damaged by high wind, heat & mildew. Also, attic ventilation problems can reduce the shingles’ life so adequate ventilation is very important.

Shingle Roofing Replacement Process
- Protecting your property – We make sure that nothing gets damage during installation of a new roof. We move all items from around the house; we protect your siding and plants with tarps.
Removing old roofing material – Old shingles have to be completely removed in order to inspect wood decking flashings and penetrations.
- Inspecting wood decking – Plywood or tongue groove decking needs to be inspected for potential water damage. Any damaged wood needs to be replaced before new shingles are applied.
- Preparing the roof surface for shingles – Drip edge, ice & water shield on the bottoms and roofing felt needs to be installed on whole roof surface.
Installing new shingles – New shingles needs to be installed using six nails per shingle. New pipe flanges, step flashing, flashing on a chimney and proper ventilation are installed
- Clean-up & final inspection – All debris needs to be picked up and disposed of lawfully. Nails need to be picked up using a magnetic tool. Finally, the company owner inspects the system to make sure it up to the highest industry standards.
