The Tarrytown roof replacement guide

Every step from inspection to teardown to final magnet sweep, how a real replacement runs.
A roof replacement is one of the bigger projects a homeowner takes on. Done right, it ends without you noticing the crew, just a clean driveway and a new roof overhead.
The first step is always the inspection. A senior estimator walks the roof, checks attic ventilation, and documents anything insurance might cover. You get a written scope before any work is scheduled.
Teardown takes most of day one. Tear-off goes into a dump trailer on the driveway, not onto the lawn. Decking gets inspected and any soft plywood gets replaced.
Underlayment, ice-and-water at the eaves, drip edge, and the new roofing system go on next, usually finishing day two or three depending on size and pitch.
Final cleanup is a magnet sweep across the lawn and gutters, plus a written warranty package handed off in person.
