Quick answer

A roof replacement involves an inspection and written estimate, stripping back to the deck, checking and repairing it, installing fresh roofing and cleaning up. Many home roofs take a few days, depending on size, weather and materials.

Knowing the steps makes a replacement far less stressful. Here is the usual sequence. For details, see roof replacement in Houston or Roof Repair Houston.

1. Inspection and written estimate

The roofer inspects the roof and attic and gives you a written estimate with materials and timeline. Not sure you need one? Read roof repair or replacement first.

2. Tear-off and deck check

The old roofing is stripped back to the deck, which is inspected so any damaged boards are dealt with before new material goes on.

3. New roofing installed

Fresh roofing, flashing and ventilation are installed. Choose materials for Houston sun, humidity and heavy rain.

4. Clean-up and walk-through

A good crew leaves the property as they found it and walks you through the finished work.
