Roof Replacement in Rockwall, TX: Tarps to Tear-Off to Finished Roof

Watch a Rockwall roof go from tarps to tear-off to done in 10 photos.

Our crew replaced this Rockwall, TX roof in a single day. Here is every stage, start to finish: protecting the property, tearing off to the original plank deck, repairing the decking, leak barrier and synthetic underlayment, new pipe boot flashing, shingles, and a new ridge cap.

Property Protection

Before a single shingle came off, tarps went down around the house and over the landscaping to catch nails, old shingles and debris.

Tear-Off and Decking Repairs

The old roof came off down to the original plank deck. We checked the boards and repaired the ones that needed it, so the new roof goes on a solid base.

Underlayment

Leak barrier went down along the eaves, then synthetic underlayment over the rest of the deck.
