New Roof Installation FAQs

Planning a new roof installation? Find answers to common questions and connect with reputable roofing contractors in USA on Roofyng.com.

What is ice and water shield?

Ice and water shield is a self-adhesive, waterproof membrane installed under the roof covering in vulnerable areas like valleys, eaves, and around penetrations. It provides an extra layer of protection against ice dams and water infiltration, preventing leaks and damage.

What is the process for a new roof installation?

The typical new roof installation process includes:
  1. Inspection and Measurement: The contractor will inspect your existing roof, take measurements, and assess any structural issues.
  2. Permitting (if required): The contractor will obtain necessary permits from your local building department.
  3. Material Delivery: Roofing materials are delivered to your property.
  4. Protection and Preparation: The contractor will protect your property (landscaping, driveway, etc.) and prepare the roof deck.
  5. Old Roof Removal (if applicable): If replacing an existing roof, the old roofing materials will be removed and disposed of properly.
  6. Installation of Underlayment: A waterproof barrier is installed on the roof deck to protect against leaks.
  7. Installation of New Roofing Material: The new roofing material (shingles, tiles, metal panels, etc.) is installed, ensuring proper alignment, nailing, and flashing.
  8. Installation of Flashing and Vents: Flashing is installed around chimneys, vents, skylights, and valleys to prevent leaks, and proper ventilation is ensured.
  9. Gutter Installation or Replacement (if needed): New gutters or downspouts might be installed or the existing ones repaired or replaced.
  10. Cleanup and Final Inspection: The contractor will clean up debris and conduct a final inspection to ensure proper installation.

How long does it take to install a new roof?

The installation timeframe depends on the roof size, complexity, weather, and the roofing crew's efficiency. A simple roof might take a few days, while a large, complex roof could take several weeks. Your chosen contractor will provide a more accurate timeline.

What is the purpose of roof flashing?

Roof flashing is a thin, impervious material, typically metal, installed at transitions and protrusions on the roof to prevent water infiltration. It's used around:
  • Chimneys
  • Vents
  • Skylights
  • Walls
  • Valleys
  • Other areas where the roof changes plane or intersects with a vertical surface
Flashing directs water away from these vulnerable areas, ensuring a watertight seal and preventing leaks.
