Preparing for Re-Roofing

During re-roofing, your home will be a construction site. Following the guidelines below will help the roofing work go more smoothly. Please browse the rest of our site for more roofing tips and information.

1. PLAN FOR THE NOISE. There will be hammering during most phases of your re-roofing project. Plan your schedule accordingly.

2. We will need access to your roof via the driveway, in most cases. Please park vehicles out of this area while work is in progress and for delivery of materials.

3. Remove loosely hung items from the walls and bring in any items around the eves of the house that could be damaged by falling shingles.

4. Please keep children and pets away from work area.

5. Pool owners: We will cover pools that are near work area. Please check chlorine level before we cover in order to keep algae growth away.

6. Check gas utility ventilation stacks to ensure none have dislodged during re-roofing. (The roofers or an inspector will check this for you if you provide access to your attic.)

7. Special note for re-decks: Have your belongings stored in the attic covered. Wood shingles and splinters may fall into the attic during tear-off of the old roof.

8. Please contact our office if you have any questions or if we can be of further assistance.
