🚨 Why You Want Your Roof Removed Down to the Wood Deck! 🪵🔨
When we tear off your old roof, this is what we’re looking for 👇 (see photo).
âś… Exposed decking tells the truth.
Many roofers will cut corners by leaving old underlayment or even partial shingles in place. That hides potential problems like:
• Rotten or soft wood
• Improper nailing
• Gaps or delaminated OSB
• Mold, mildew, or trapped moisture
đź‘€ What we found here?
Evidence of moisture staining, tons of leftover fasteners, and brittle decking that won’t hold a nail properly anymore — not a solid foundation for your new roof!
🛠️ At Ridgeline Roofing, we strip it down to the deck so you get:
• A full inspection of the wood substrate
• Any bad decking replaced
• Proper fastening of new felt and shingles
• Peace of mind that your new roof isn’t just a cosmetic fix — it’s built to last!
💬 If your roofer isn’t talking about replacing decking or showing you this kind of transparency… you may not be getting a quality job.
