Every solid roof job starts well before the first shingle goes down. The tear-off phase is where you find out what you're really working with - rotted decking, soft spots, old layers that were never dealt with properly. We don't skip past that.

Here's what we were working with on this one: the old roof came off clean, and fresh plywood went down across the entire deck. That's the foundation everything else gets built on. If that layer isn't right, nothing above it is either.

A lot of homeowners don't think much about what's underneath their shingles. But the decking is what gives your roof its structure and its ability to hold up under heavy weather. We make sure it's solid before we move forward - every time, no exceptions.

We don't cut corners on the prep work because that's exactly where shortcuts come back to bite you. A few years down the road, a roof that wasn't done right starts showing it. Leaks, sagging, premature wear. Getting it done properly the first time saves you from all of that.

This home is sitting at a great starting point right now. Strong deck, clean slate, and ready for the next phase. That's exactly where you want to be before the finished roofing goes on.
