Roof Installation
From Bare Framing Up
New builds, additions, garages and outbuildings need a first roof, not a replacement — decking, underlayment, ice barrier and shingles sequenced right from day one.
The First Roof Sets The Ceiling On The Rest
Installation differs from replacement: there’s nothing to tear off, but everything to get right the first time — decking fastening schedules, drip edge sequencing with the wrap, ice barrier at eaves and valleys per code, ventilation designed rather than inherited. We coordinate with builders and homeowners alike, and the same GAF-certified standards apply whether it’s a whole house or a two-car garage.
Garages & Outbuildings Welcome
A garage roof is a small job most roofers quote reluctantly — we quote it happily, because small jobs built this company. Same materials, same crew standards, same warranty registration. And if the structure ties into the house roofline, we detail the transition so it never becomes the leak everyone blames on “the addition guy.”
Real Questions From Real Roofs
Do you roof new construction for builders?
Yes — we work with builders and GCs on new homes and additions, and directly with homeowners on garages and outbuildings.
What is different about installing versus replacing a roof?
No tear-off, but full responsibility for the substrate: decking, ventilation design, and flashing details are ours from bare framing, which is exactly how we like it.
Can you match my addition roof to the existing house?
We source the closest current match and detail the tie-in; if your existing shingle is discontinued, we’ll show you the options honestly before anything is ordered.
How long does it take to install a new roof?
Most residential installs run one to three days once materials land; garages and small outbuildings are often a single day, weather permitting.
Do I need a permit for a new roof in Ohio?
Most municipalities require one for new roof structures and we pull it as part of the job — the permit inspection also independently verifies the work.
What is the cheapest way to roof a garage?
A straightforward architectural-shingle install on an accessible garage — small crews price it well, and skipping cut-rate 3-tab saves you a second roof in fifteen years.
Does a new roof need underlayment?
Always — synthetic underlayment across the deck plus ice barrier at eaves and valleys is code-driven and non-negotiable on our installs.
Can you install a roof in winter?
Yes with cold-weather practices — adhesive strips need attention and sealing takes longer, but winter installs done right perform identically.
