What to Expect When Replacing Your Roof

Replacing your roof is one of the best ways to protect your home, but we know it can feel like a big project. At Star Home, our goal is to make the process simple, transparent, and stress-free from start to finish. Whether you’re replacing an aging roof or repairing storm damage, here’s exactly what you can expect when working with our trusted roofing team.

1. Material Delivery and Preparation

Once you’ve chosen your roofing materials, we’ll schedule your installation and have all materials delivered to your home. You’ll typically see those materials arrive one day before the crew begins work, this ensures everything is ready for a smooth start.

Before the work begins, we’ll take steps to protect your property, including:

• Covering windows, landscaping, and your air conditioning unit

• Setting up safety zones to prevent damage or debris

• Preparing your driveway and walkways for easy cleanup later

2. Old Roof Removal

Our crew arrives the next day ready to get to work. The first step is to remove your existing roofing materials, including shingles, underlayment, and flashing, all the way down to the roof decking. This allows us to fully inspect your roof’s structure and address any damage before installing your new system.

3. Decking Inspection

After the old materials are removed, we perform a thorough roof decking inspection. Any soft or damaged boards are replaced to ensure your new roof has a solid foundation. This step is essential for the long-term performance and safety of your roofing system.

4. New Roof Installation

With a clean, solid deck, it’s time for your new roofing system to go on. Our team installs:

• Underlayment for moisture protection

• Flashing and vents for proper airflow

• High-quality shingles in your selected style and color

Each step is completed to manufacturer specifications and local building codes, ensuring your home gets the protection and curb appeal it deserves.

5. Cleanup and Final Inspection

When installation is complete, our crew performs a thorough cleanup; removing all debris, sweeping for nails, and restoring your yard to how it looked before we arrived. Our goal is to leave your property “as if we were never there.”

Finally, a quality assurance inspection is completed to confirm your roof meets Star Home’s standards for craftsmanship and durability.

At Star Home, we’re more than a roofing company — we’re your neighbors. We take pride in delivering a roof that not only protects your home but also enhances its value and appearance. You can count on clear communication, respectful crews, and dependable results every time.
