Residential Roofing Replacement
The roof provides protection for your home. Handing it over for repairs or replacement means that you are leaving the protection of your home in someone else’s hands. However, with the help of a professional team, you won’t have to worry. When pursuing a residential roofing replacement, keep in mind the following:
Material
Nobody wants their home built with fragile materials, so it is important to understand the different materials available in order to determine which is best for you. Commonly used for residential roofing replacement materials are:
- Asphalt composition shingles
- Metal roofing
- Wood shakes
- Slate roofing
These materials come in different colors, which you can match to the outdoor decor of your home.
Metal roofs are flat or low slope. Slate utilizes asphalt shingles while tile utilizes wood. However, wood shingles must be replaced rather than repaired.

Residential Roofing Replacement Process
The residential roofing replacement process typically involves the following steps:
Inspection
The roof replacement service starts with the inspection of the roof’s current condition. There may be different approaches used by different companies, but a manual inspection will help outline the budget and offer clarity about whether you need a repair or replacement.
Analysis & Solution
If after analysis it is determined that the roof requires partial or total replacement, you may be requested to contribute to the cost of repairs to save the cost of having a full roof replacement.
You will also be provided with a solution that is determined to be best for your roof repair.
Options
There are numerous options when it comes to roof replacement, including different colors, materials, and personal preferences. You can also request an energy-efficient model, among other options including:
- Resisting the environmental impact
- Lifespan of roofing
- Warranty
- Budget
Removal
After taking the above steps, the removal (if necessary) can begin. The components of the roofing will be removed one-by-one, most of the time by hand. When everything is removed, the debris will be lowered down to the ground into the waste container.
To protect your belongings on the ground, park your car away from the project site and keep your valuables at a distance.
Installation
Next, the new roofing will be installed according to your selected terms and conditions. A professional company like Elm City Roofing will install your roofing utilizing the best and latest techniques. Moreover, the installation will be performed by well-trained, certified staff.
A warranty will be given to you after the installation.
Finalizing
After installation, a careful review will reveal any minor imperfections. Such finalizing can be done by a magnetic sweep for nails as well as metal roofing. Quality control will also inspect the installation manually before providing you with the warranty to ensure 100% satisfaction and increase the durability of the installed roofing.
Insurance Policies
By having previous roofing services provided by professionals, you may have insurance to cover the cost of repairs or replacement. Insurance coverage can be difficult to understand to the layman.
