Roof Replacements
Here’s how we do roof replacements the right way
Stripping The Roof
At Remy’s Roofing, every full roof replacement starts with a clean slate. We completely strip your roof down to the wooden decking—no shortcuts, no patch jobs over old material. This crucial first step allows us to thoroughly inspect the condition of the decking and identify any signs of rot or damage.
If we find any rotten or compromised wood, we cut it out and replace it with new decking. That way, your new roof is built on a strong, stable foundation—because a solid roof starts from the bottom up.
Drip Edge
Once the decking is secure, we install brand new drip edge around the perimeter of your roof. Drip edge is a metal flashing that helps direct water away from the fascia and into the gutters, preventing water damage and rot along the edges of your roof.
It’s a key component that often gets overlooked, but at Remy’s Roofing, we do things the right way not the fast way.
Ice & Water
We only use premium roofing materials, carefully selected for durability and performance. These high-quality products allow us to confidently back our work with an industry-leading 25-year no leak warranty.
In all roof valleys and the edge of the roof where water flow is heaviest—we install Ice & Water Shield, a thick, adhesive membrane that sticks directly to the decking and offers advanced waterproofing protection.
Synthetic Underlayment
Most homes still have old-fashioned felt paper under their shingles a material that can tear easily and offer minimal protection. At Remy’s Roofing, we do things differently.
We use synthetic underlayment, the latest in roofing technology, designed to be stronger, more durable, and far more resistant to moisture. Once we’ve installed Ice & Water Shield in key areas, we cover the entire roof with this high-performance material making your roof waterproof before a single shingle is even installed.
Starter Strip & Shingles
Next comes the starter shingle layer, which provides critical wind resistance along the roof edges and ensures a secure foundation for the rest of the shingles. This layer helps prevent shingle blow-off during high winds and creates a clean, straight edge to guide the installation.
It also acts as a moisture barrier at the most vulnerable points of your roof, setting the stage for a tight, uniform seal as we move into the full installation of your new shingles.
Ridge Vents
We also upgrade your roof’s ventilation system by installing modern ridge vents, a major improvement over outdated box or turbine vents. Ridge vents are placed along the peak of your roof and run the full length of the ridge, allowing hot, humid air to escape evenly from your attic space. This natural airflow reduces the strain on your HVAC system, improves energy efficiency, and keeps your home more comfortable year round.
By minimizing heat buildup and moisture retention in the attic, ridge vents also help prevent issues like mold, wood rot, and premature shingle aging, ultimately extending the life of your roof and protecting your investment for years to come. Proper ventilation is one of the most overlooked yet critical parts of a high performing roofing system, and at Remy’s Roofing, we make sure it’s done right.
Clean Up
At Remy’s Roofing, we treat your home like our own. Our crews work carefully and respectfully, and we aim to leave your property cleaner than we found it. After every roof replacement, we perform a thorough clean-up and walk the entire yard with magnet rollers to pick up as many nails as possible. Keep in mind thousands of nails come out and go in during a full roof replacement. While we do our best to collect every single one, you might find a stray nail or two, so please be cautious around your property for a few days afterward.
