New Construction Roofing in Tecumseh

New Construction Roofing for Tecumseh homes

Tecumseh combines established neighbourhoods near the Lake St. Clair shoreline with newer subdivisions and rural properties to the south. New homes and additions in Tecumseh often sit on larger lots with more open exposure to wind. We follow the shingle manufacturer's high-wind nailing requirements where they apply and keep the site secure between stages.

What's included

Roofing for new homes, additions and garages, coordinated with builders and framers from sheathing to ridge. Depending on your roof, the work can include:

• Dry-in
• Shingles or metal
• Flashing and penetrations
• Ventilation
• Additions and tie-ins
• Review the drawings.
• Schedule to the frame.
• Install and inspect.
• Hand off.

Local conditions in Tecumseh

Exposure to wind off Lake St. Clair makes edge details, starter strips and nailing patterns especially important on Tecumseh roofs. Larger lots and outbuildings further from the lake also make Tecumseh a common place for metal roofing on garages, workshops and homes.

Questions to ask before you hire

Whoever you hire for new construction roofing in Tecumseh, get clear answers to these before signing:

• Have you reviewed the drawings, including pitches, materials and ventilation?
• How quickly can you dry in the roof after sheathing?
• Who coordinates the soffit, ventilation and insulation trades?
• How will penetrations from other trades be sealed?
• What warranty documentation will I receive?

Permits and approvals

Building permits in Tecumseh are issued by the Town of Tecumseh's building department. Replacing a roof with similar materials usually doesn't require a permit, but structural changes, new roof framing and new skylight openings typically do. We confirm requirements for your property before work starts.
