At Lagunas Roofing, we pride ourselves on delivering perfect roofing services. Recently, we handled a complete roof replacement project in Collinsville, IL. Here's a step-by-step look at how we approached and executed this project.

Initial Consultation



The project began with an initial consultation. Our client noticed several leaks in their roof, and after our inspection, we found that the roof was beyond repair and required a complete replacement. We discussed the options with the client, considering their budget and preferences.


Steps We Took To Tackle Complete Roof Replacement



Our approach to roof replacement was well-planned and thorough. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, we made sure every step was carried out with precision and care. Here’s an overview of the steps we took for this project:


Planning and Material Selection


Once the decision was made to replace the roof, we moved on to planning and material selection. The client chose high-quality
asphalt shingles due to their durability and aesthetic appeal. We also selected underlayment, flashing, and other essential materials to ensure a long-lasting and sturdy roof.


Preparation and Safety Measures


Before starting the replacement, we took necessary safety measures to protect the client's property. We set up protective coverings around the house to catch any debris and used safety harnesses and helmets to ensure our team's safety. We also informed the client about the noise and duration of the project.


Removal of Old Roofing


Our first major task was to remove the old roofing materials. We carefully stripped away the old shingles, underlayment, and damaged flashing. This step was necessary to inspect the underlying structure for any damage that needed to be tackled.


Inspection and Repairs & Installation of New Roofing

Replacing a roof involved not only removing the old materials but also ensuring the new installation was flawless. Here’s how we handled the inspection, repairs, and installation for this project:


  1. Inspection and Repairs: With the old roofing removed, we inspected the roof deck. We found some areas with water damage and wood rot, which we quickly repaired. Ensuring a solid foundation was important for the new roof's longevity.
  2. Installation of Underlayment and Flashing: Next, we installed the new underlayment and flashing, ensuring every seam and edge was properly sealed. This step was necessary to protect the roof from moisture and leaks.
  3. Placement of Asphalt Shingles: We then placed the new asphalt shingles, starting from the bottom edge and working our way up. Our team made sure each shingle was securely nailed down and aligned perfectly.


Quality Check and Clean-Up


After installing the new roof, we performed a detailed quality check to ensure everything was up to our high standards. We inspected the roof for proper alignment, secure fastening, and overall appearance. Finally, we cleaned up the work area, removing all debris and protective coverings.


Final Walkthrough and Client Satisfaction


We did a final walkthrough with the client to make sure they were satisfied with the work. We explained the new roof's features and provided maintenance tips to help them care for it. The client was thrilled with the results and appreciated our professionalism and attention to detail.
