Five things we get called for, and what each one really means.
Hover a card and it lifts the way a roof does in a tear-off: field, felt, deck.
01 Roof replacement
Full tear-off to the deck, rotten sheathing swapped, new underlayment, new field.
Open
02 Roof repair
Leaks traced to the actual detail: a split boot, a lifted lap, a failed valley.
Open
03 Storm restoration
Tarped first, documented for the adjuster, then rebuilt to the same drawing.
Open
04 Commercial roofing
Low-slope membrane, coatings and flashing work on occupied buildings.
Open
05 Gutters and exterior
Seamless gutters, siding and washing, so water leaves the way it should.
OpenSection drawing
Eave to ridge, in five details.
Scroll and the drawing travels up the pitch. Every roof we quote is written this way.
-
01 Eave
Drip edge and starter
Water leaves the roof here or it goes into the fascia. Metal first, then a sealed starter course.
- Detail
- Drip edge over ice barrier
- Fixing
- Nailed at 8 in centres
-
02 Deck
Sheathing and underlayment
Soft plywood gets cut out and replaced. Only then does the water barrier go down.
- Check
- Every sheet walked
- Barrier
- Ice and water at eaves and valleys
-
03 Field
The courses
Straight courses, staggered joints, nails in the strip. This is the part storms test.
- Exposure
- Set to the maker spec
- Nails
- 6 per shingle in wind zones
-
04 Valley
Flashing and penetrations
Valleys, chimneys, boots and skylights. Most leaks we chase started at one of these.
- Method
- Woven or open metal
- Boots
- Replaced, never resealed
-
05 Ridge
Ventilation and cap
Air in at the soffit, out at the ridge. A hot deck ages a new roof early.
- Intake
- Soffit cleared
- Exhaust
- Continuous ridge vent

After a storm, the order matters.
Water first, paperwork second, roof third. Do it the other way round and the claim gets harder.
Tarp and dry
A crew tarps the opening and gets moisture out of the ceiling before it spreads.
Photograph every slope
Damage is shot from the roof and the ground, dated, and sent to you as a file, not a promise.
Back to the drawing
The roof goes back on to the same written scope you approved, detail by detail.
Homeowner notes
The wall gets re-laid, course by course.
Wind took shingles off half our street. They inspected the same week, met our adjuster on the roof, and had the new roof on in a day.
