Unless the project is a recover, our experienced roofing technicians remove and dispose of the existing roof system components, sometimes down to the structural deck. Then, we install appropriate roofing insulation. (Sometimes this includes a combination of roof insulation and high-density gypsum board.) The new roof membrane is fastened, adhered, or ballasted over the new insulation. Our project supervisor provides daily, weekly, or beginning/end communication updates, according to your preferences.
Once the project is completed, you’ll be provided a warranty, maintenance requirements, and an asset management plan for ongoing maintenance. Whenever applicable, you’ll receive a roof manufacturer warranty ranging from 10 to 30 years. Read more about our 9-step process here.
