The Roofing Factory process
Our Process
The challenge of installing an excellent roof is in the details. At The Roofing Factory, we have spent years cultivating a detailed procedure by working and training with the worlds leading roofing material manufacturers. From underlayment, to trims, to our treatment of penetrations and flashings, our process has been developed to ensure that you get an absolutely worry free roof, every time, no exceptions.
Building the right roof for you
Clean Deck
Drip Flashing
Drip Flashing
We always start with a clean, dry roof deck. This allows us to asses any potential wood rot or structural issues that may be present underneath your shingles. The roof's deck is the foundation of the roofing system and it must be rock solid to ensure a long life for your investment.
Drip Flashing
Drip Flashing
Drip Flashing
Drip edge flashing ensures that water flowing off the roof will be guided into your gutter. Lack of drip edge can allow water to travel behind the gutter, and sometimes up onto the edge of the roof deck, causing streaking on the fascia, rotten fascia boards and deck boards, and icy patches on walkways in winter.
Leak Barrier
Drip Flashing
Full Coverage Synthetic
Leak Barrier, also known as Ice & Water Shield, is a self-adhesive, peel-and-stick product designed to prevent leaks at the eave of the roof. This critical part of the roof deck preparation process, protects against water infiltration from ice dams and wind driven rain. Our standard is to install two rows, or six feet of ice and water shield in order to ensure we are at least 24" inside the warm wall of the home.

Full Coverage Synthetic
The modern replacement for tar paper, the Synthetic Paper is a semi-permeable woven polypropylene. This gives it superior water resistance and breathability. We always recommend a breathable synthetic underlayment over the entire roof deck to repel water that may get under the shingles, and to ensure that moisture from the attic can escape, keeping the deck dry for the life of the roofing system.
