Our Asphalt Shingle Roofing Process

We follow a streamlined, detail-focused process to ensure superior results with every shingle roofing project.

1. Roof Inspection & Estimate

We begin with a free, comprehensive inspection to evaluate your current roof and recommend options based on your budget, home design, and preferences.

2. Material Selection

We’ll help you choose from top brands like GAF™, Owens Corning®, and Tamko, including color palettes and shingle profiles that enhance your home’s appearance.

3. Removal & Prep

We carefully remove the old roofing, inspect and repair the decking as needed, and install moisture barriers, underlayment, and flashing systems.

4. Installation

Our certified crews install your new asphalt shingles to manufacturer specifications, ensuring optimal performance, clean lines, and long-term warranty coverage.

5. Final Cleanup & Inspection

We complete a final walkthrough and clean the work area thoroughly, using magnetic rollers to remove nails and debris.

Architectural vs. 3-Tab: Which Asphalt Shingle Is Right for You?

3-tab shingles are ideal for homeowners on a tight budget, offering reliable performance and clean symmetry. Architectural shingles, however, provide greater durability, enhanced aesthetics, and are the most common upgrade in modern residential builds.
