When you're building new in De Kalb, the roof is one of the most important decisions you'll make. It protects everything underneath it for the next 30-50 years. De Kalb Roofing & Maintenance helps you choose the right material, designs proper ventilation, and installs it to manufacturer specifications.
Whether it's GAF Timberline HDZ, Owens Corning Duration, CertainTeed Landmark, or a standing seam metal system, our De Kalb crews install it the way the manufacturer requires. Factory-certified installation means your warranty is fully backed from day one.
Our New Roof Installation Process
Plan Review & Consultation
We review your building plans, discuss material options, and calculate ventilation requirements. Roof pitch, attic space, local code amendments, and your aesthetic preferences all factor into the recommendation.
Preparation
We coordinate delivery timing with your GC so materials don't sit exposed longer than necessary. Our staging crew organizes everything on the roof deck for efficient installation the next morning.
Certified Installation
Our De Kalb crew installs every layer to manufacturer specifications: underlayment, ice and water shield, drip edge, starter strip, field material, hip and ridge caps, and ventilation. Every fastener placed per the manufacturer nailing schedule.
Warranty Registration
After installation: quality inspection, building department sign-off, manufacturer warranty registration, and cleanup. Your new roof is warranted from the day it passes inspection.
