Roofs and the work
Every Roof Type We Install, in One Place
Photographs of roof types and the stages of a job, and two short clips filmed from the air. Filter by material to see the one you are considering.
Stage 1
Bare Decking, Nothing on It YetPlywood decking fastened down and ready. This is the stage where soft spots and poor nailing are either found or covered up.
Stage 2
Underlayment Going OnSynthetic underlayment laid over the decking, with a strip of bare wood still showing. It is the layer that keeps water out if a shingle ever goes.
Laying Clay Tile by HandEach tile hangs on the batten below it. Tile is heavy, and the frame underneath has to be able to carry it.Tied Off, Working Up the SlopeA roofer in a harness laying shingle over synthetic underlayment, the next course already lined up.Slate With Shuttered DormersSlate with two small dormers, each with green shutters. Slate outlasts almost everything and needs somebody who knows it.New Shingle Field, Looking Down the SlopeArchitectural shingle laid across the whole elevation, shot from the ridge with the street behind it.A Crew on a Metal RoofA crew working across a green metal roof, seen from the air.Standing Seam Over the PorchDark standing seam on the porch roof over the garage, with shingle on the main roof above it.A Hip Roof From AboveEvery slope of a hipped roof in one frame. An aerial view is how a roof gets checked without guessing.Shingle Roof With Two DormersA steep roof with gabled dormers over tall windows. On a roof like this the flashing does most of the work.The Valley Where Two Planes MeetMetal roofing through a valley and into the wall line. Valleys are where a lot of leaks start.Clay Tile With Roof WindowsA clay tile roof with two roof windows set into it. Every opening in a tile roof needs its own flashing kit.Measuring the Pitch Before Anything Is QuotedA pitch and slope locator on the shingle field. Pitch changes the material, the labor and the price.Moss, Left Too LongMoss and algae across a roof and its dormer. It holds water against the surface and shortens the life of the roof.Standing Seam Metal Into the WallA low-slope metal section running up to the siding, with the wall flashing carried behind the cladding.Peel-and-Stick Underlayment at the EdgeSelf-adhering underlayment run to the metal drip edge. The layer nobody sees and the one that keeps the water out.Nailing Architectural ShingleA pneumatic nailer on a fresh course. Where each nail goes is the difference between a warranty that holds and one that does not.Where Chimney Meets ShingleA brick chimney through a dark shingle roof. The flashing around a chimney is one of the first places water finds.A Full Tear-Off in ProgressOld shingle stripped back to the decking, a crew on the roof and another on the ground, and tarps down before anything falls.A Pipe Boot That Has Given UpThe rubber collar split and the shingles around it stripped of granules. This is what an inspection is looking for.
