New construction means we start with a clean deck and build the roofing system properly from the first layer. Fort Gay Roofing & Maintenance has installed new roofs on hundreds of new builds across Fort Gay, from custom homes to spec builds, from room additions to detached structures.
Proper ventilation is the most overlooked element in new roof installation. We calculate intake and exhaust requirements per IRC R806 based on your attic square footage. Balanced ventilation (soffit intake matched to ridge exhaust) keeps your attic cooler in summer and drier in winter, extending roof life and reducing energy costs.
Our New Roof Installation Process
Plan Review & Consultation
We analyze your plans for pitch, square footage, ventilation needs, and code compliance. You get a detailed proposal with material specs, timeline, and fixed pricing before any work begins.
Preparation
All materials verified against your approved proposal. Color, brand, quantity, everything double-checked before install day. No substitutions without your approval.
Certified Installation
From underlayment to ridge cap, every layer installed in the correct sequence by certified crews. A project manager is on-site for new construction installs to ensure quality at every stage.
Final Inspection
We schedule the building inspection and walk the roof with the inspector. Your manufacturer warranty gets registered the same day the roof passes inspection. You receive warranty paperwork within a week.
