Before the Work Starts: Inspection and Quote
A professional Moncton roofer will start with a drone-assisted inspection and EagleView satellite measurements to calculate exact dimensions. You should receive a written itemized quote within 24–48 hours specifying the exact material brand and model, ice & water shield coverage, tear-off and disposal costs, and warranty terms.
Expect 2–3 business days from first call to written quote. Scheduling typically runs 5–14 days out in summer peak season (June–August) and is usually faster in shoulder seasons.
Installation Day: What Actually Happens
The crew arrives with a shingle conveyor (to lift materials without damaging your lawn or gutters), tarps to protect landscaping and HVAC units, and a dump trailer for old materials. Tear-off of old shingles typically takes 2–4 hours for a standard bungalow.
After tear-off, the crew inspects decking for rot or water damage — any compromised sheathing is replaced before new materials go down. Then: drip edge, ice & water shield at all eaves and valleys, synthetic underlayment across the full deck, starter strip, then shingles from eave to ridge. Ridge cap and all flashing points complete the job.
At completion: full magnetic nail sweep of the entire property (including lawn, driveway, and garden areas), gutter clearing of debris, and a final walkthrough with you to review the work.
