Roof Installation

The installation process begins with a thorough inspection of the existing roof structure to ensure it is sound and capable of supporting metal tiles.

If necessary, the old roofing materials are removed to provide a clean and stable surface for installation.

Any damaged or weak areas in the roof deck are repaired or reinforced to create a reliable base.

A waterproof underlayment or roofing felt is applied over the roof deck to protect against moisture and leaks.

Flashing is installed around critical areas such as chimneys, vents, and valleys to direct water away from these vulnerable spots.

Wood strapping is added to provide a framework for attaching the metal tiles.

Installation starts at the lowest edge of the roof, known as the eaves, ensuring proper alignment from the beginning.

Each metal tile is carefully placed and fastened with screws, following the manufacturer’s recommendations.

The tiles are overlapped strategically to prevent water infiltration and maintain a seamless appearance.

Roof valleys are secured with screws to ensure efficient water drainage and protection from leaks.

Ridge caps are installed along the roof’s peak to seal gaps between the two sloping sides and enhance waterproofing.

Edge flashing is attached along the rake and eaves to provide a polished look and additional weather protection.

Special care is taken around roof penetrations, such as skylights or vents, using custom-cut tiles and additional flashing.

Fasteners are checked to ensure they are tight but not overly tightened, avoiding deformation of the tiles.

Sealants are applied to all exposed fasteners and critical joints for extra waterproofing and durability.

The roof is cleaned of debris, metal shavings, and other materials to prevent scratches or rusting over time.

A final inspection ensures all tiles are properly aligned, secured, and free from defects.

The completed roof is tested, often using water spray or visual checks, to verify it is leak-free.

Any adjustments or corrections are made before declaring the project complete.

The result is a long-lasting, weather-resistant, and visually appealing metal tile roof that enhances the property’s value.
