Project duration:
When re-roofing we want all projects to flow very smoothly. Below is a list of things to help understand the re-roof process and the procedures involved. When a shake roof is removed we must install solid sheathing. This work is performed on the same day as the tear/off. If you are having an asphalt composition roof installed your project duration will take about 3 to 4 days.
Tile roofs will take between 7 to 10 working days depending on steepness of roof and complexity of the project. Metal roofs usually take between 5 to 7 days. Our average re-roof is between 3 to 5 days.

Arrival Time:
Our normal arrival time is between 7:00 to 8:00 a.m. However times can vary due to weather, etc.
Landscape Protection:
Please cover any shrubs or plants that you may have concerns about if. You can use plywood to protect larger shrubs or small trees such as Japanese maple, etc. We will need access to your side yard and back yard for debris removal and work around the eave areas. Please close all windows during the duration of your project.
Garage Area Protection:
When removing a shake roof, there will be debris falling into the garage. For a minimum fee you have the option of having ACS Roofing install plastic sheeting to the inside of the garage to prevent dust from settling on your personal belongings. Please let us know ahead of time if you want this option so we can arrange it the day before. To prevent any damages we ask that all vehicles be removed from the garage. We do clean out the garage after the roof removal with gas blowers and this performs a very good job of removing any dust and debris from this area.
Driveway Access:
We will need access to the driveway for the roof removal and loading the materials for the new roof. We also like to park a small utility trailer in the driveway during the duration of the project for debris collection. This prevents unnecessary debris left on the roof from falling on the ground or possibly blowing away.
Pets:
The first day is very loud because of the tear off and very busy with workers putting materials in place so please keep your pets in mind. Please put pets in a safe place, as we will need access to side and back yard areas and we don’t want any run away animals.
Pools & Spas:
Cover pools, spas, hot tubs, ponds. Turn off pool/spa pumps during the tear off day. ACS Roofing can assist you with this if requested.
