New Roof Construction in Morristown, TN: What Happens on Install Day

At a glance

Replacing a roof is one of the biggest projects a Morristown homeowner takes on, and knowing what happens on install day makes it far less stressful.

What to expect

  1. Tear-off and inspection. Old shingles come off and the deck is checked for soft or rotted boards.

  2. Underlayment and flashing. Ice-and-water shield goes in valleys and at eaves; new flashing is set at chimneys and walls.

  3. Shingle or metal install. The crew works up from the eaves with proper nailing patterns for East Tennessee wind.

  4. Ventilation and cleanup. Ridge vents are added and a magnetic sweep collects nails.
