Roofing

Roofing is the process of constructing or repairing a roof to protect a building from the elements. Here’s a brief summary:

1. Inspection and Planning: Assess the roof’s condition, measure dimensions, and plan the project, including materials and budget.
2. Tear-off and Preparation: Remove old roofing materials and repair any structural damage. Ensure the roof deck is clean and secure.
3. Underlayment Installation: Lay down a waterproof underlayment to protect against moisture.
4. Roofing Material Installation: Install the chosen roofing materials (shingles, tiles, metal panels, etc.) starting from the bottom edge, overlapping as you go up.
5. Flashing and Ventilation: Install flashing around roof features (chimneys, vents) to prevent leaks and ensure proper ventilation.
6. Final Inspection and Cleanup: Inspect the finished roof for quality, make any necessary adjustments, and clean up debris.

Proper roofing ensures durability, weather resistance, and energy efficiency for the building.
