Our crew started a full roof replacement on a home in DeSoto, TX this week. Here is how day one went, step by step, so you can see what a Lotus roof replacement looks like before the new shingles go on.
Protecting the property first
Before any shingles came off, the crew laid tarps over the patio, lawn and landscaping to catch nails and debris.
Tear-off down to the decking
We removed the old roof completely, down to the wood decking. That lets us see every soft spot, gap and damaged board instead of covering problems up.
New decking where it was needed
Damaged and worn sections of decking were replaced so the new roof has a solid base to fasten into.
Underlayment and valley protection
Next came synthetic underlayment across the whole roof, with leak barrier in the valleys, where the most water runs. This is the layer that keeps water out if a shingle is ever damaged.
Next up: shingles
With the roof dried-in, the next step is installing the new shingles, ridge and ventilation. We will share the finished photos once the job is complete.
