New Roof Installation
New construction and additions, decked and dried in properly the first time so the roof is not the thing that fails on a brand new build.
What This Covers
New construction and additions get dried in properly and detailed before anything decorative goes on. The two things that decide whether a new roof lasts are how the penetrations are flashed and whether the attic can breathe, and both are easier to get right on a new build than to fix later.

The Layers of a New Roof
| Roof Type | Lifespan | Common Issues | Repair Complexity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Decking | Life of the house | Rot, delamination, wide plank gaps | Must be sound before anything goes on |
| Underlayment | Matches the roof | Synthetic tears less than felt | Ice and water shield at eaves and valleys |
| Flashing | 20 to 30 years | Most leaks start here, not in the field | Never reuse old flashing on a new roof |
| Ventilation | Life of the roof | Undersized intake is the usual fault | Cheapest to get right during install |

Questions
New Roof Installation Questions
Can you work to my builder's schedule?
Yes. We plan around when the deck is ready so it is not left open to weather, and dry it in the same day.
What roof types do you install on new construction?
Shingle, standing seam metal, or low-slope membrane, chosen by pitch and by what the building actually needs rather than by what is quickest.
Do you handle the permit on new work?
Yes. We pull the roofing permit and schedule the inspection.
Why does ventilation matter on a brand new roof?
Because it is far cheaper to get right now than to retrofit later, and an under-ventilated attic will shorten the life of a roof that is otherwise perfect.
Do you roof detached garages and shops?
Yes, and we quote them separately so you can see what each structure costs.
