Roof Installation
When your roof ages, leaks, or shows signs of wear, replacement isn’t just an upgrade—it’s essential protection for your home. A properly installed roof prevents water intrusion, improves curb appeal, and supports long-term value.

Things to Consider Before Installing a New Roof
1. Material
Your choice of roofing material affects durability, appearance, maintenance, and cost. Asphalt shingles, metal, and tile offer different lifespans and benefits. Many communities have guidelines on approved styles or colors, so verify local requirements before deciding.
2. Price vs. Long-Term Value
Cost matters—but reliability matters more. Focus on quality materials and correct installation to protect your home for decades and reduce future repair expenses.
3. Layering vs. Stripping Old Roofing
Sometimes new shingles can be layered over an existing roof. If there’s significant damage or aging substrate, a full tear-off allows proper inspection and ensures long-term performance.
4. Choosing the Right Roofing Contractor
Work with a licensed, insured contractor. Proper installation is critical to lifespan. Delta Roofing follows manufacturer specs, keeps job sites clean, and maintains clear communication from start to finish.
5. Understanding Warranties
Most systems include a manufacturer warranty (materials) and a workmanship warranty (installation). We’ll review both with you so you know exactly what’s covered.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Is the Roof Installed?
Professionals start by laying a run of starter shingles along the bottom of the roof. Next, they nail them firmly into place with the use of roofing nails a couple inches up from the edge of the roof. Afterwhich, they lay down the starter shingles on both sides of the roof and use roofing nails to secure them together.
What Type of Roof Lasts the Longest?
Concrete, clay, or slate tiles last the longest. Natural products such as wood shakes or manufactured materials like asphalt and metal roofing do not last as long.
Is It Worth Doing Your Own Roof?
Doing your own roof is only worth it if you did it successfully. If you are not confident with your capacity to install shingles on your house, it’s alright. Roof installation is quite complex, so we advise you to hire an expert instead. Otherwise, you may actually do more harm than good.
Is It Cheaper to Do Your Own Roof?
It is cheaper in the sense that you don’t need to pay for contractors to do the job. However, you will most probably spend for the following:
- Cost of materials
- Hours lost at work
- Mistakes that need to be fixed by a professional
- Hospital bills if you get injured in the process
