Stages of Roof Replacement

When it comes to home improvement projects like roof replacement, transparency and trust are paramount. Fortitude Roofing understands that homeowners want to know exactly what's happening with their investment. That's why we offer a unique service that sets us apart from other contractors: real-time photo updates using CompanyCam. It's just like asking for a CarFax report when buying a car – when replacing your roof, you say, "Show me the CompanyCam link!"

Stages of Roof Replacement

Let's take a closer look at the stages of a roof replacement project and how our commitment to transparency shines through at each step:

1. Staging: To protect your home, we use plywood to cover sensitive areas such as windows, air conditioner units, plants, and shrubs. Tarps are strategically draped to prevent any damage to the house or lawn.

2. Tear Off: Our skilled workers use specialized tools like Shingle Scrapers to efficiently remove old shingles and nails, preparing the surface for the new roof.

3. Dry In: Repairs to the roof deck are made, ensuring its structural integrity. Self-adhering membrane is installed in code-required areas, and underlayment is secured using 1” mechanical fasteners.

4. Installation: The careful installation of shingles is where the magic happens. Our team pays close attention to detail, especially when it comes to flashing work like Wall Flashing or Chimney Flashing. These details are crucial for preventing leaks and ensuring long-lasting protection.

5. Clean Up: We take pride in leaving your property cleaner than we found it. All old shingles are disposed of in a dumpster, and we use construction magnets to sweep the yard, ensuring no loose nails are left behind. Even your flower beds get attention with handheld "swing" magnets.

The Fortitude Roofing Difference

What truly sets Fortitude Roofing apart from the competition is our commitment to transparency. We believe that homeowners deserve to know every detail about their roof replacement project, just like you'd want to know a car's history before making a purchase.

That's why we encourage homeowners to follow along with the entire roof replacement process through our real-time photo report. By simply asking for our CompanyCam link, you gain access to a live visual feed of the work being done on your roof. It's like having a front-row seat to the transformation of your home.
