Roof removal
full roof removal, in OH
A lot of roofing companies will lay new shingles right over the old ones to save time. We don’t do that. At All Points Construction LLC, every full roof replacement starts with a complete tear-off, and there’s a good reason for it. Layering over an existing roof hides problems you can’t see until they’re already costing you money, such as soft spots in the decking, moisture damage, and old flashing that should have been replaced years ago. When we pull everything off, we can actually see what we’re working with, address anything that needs it, and give you a clean, solid foundation for the new roof to go on. It takes a little more time, but it’s the right way to do it, and it’s the only way we do it.

Frequently Asked Questions — full roof replacement
Connecticut building code allows up to two layers of shingles on a residential roof, but that doesn’t mean it’s always the right call. When you layer over an existing roof, you’re covering up whatever is underneath, and if there’s damaged decking, moisture issues, or deteriorated underlayment under there, it stays under there. We recommend full tear-offs because it gives us a clean look at everything and give you a roof that’s actually built on a solid base.
We’ll show you exactly what we found and walk you through what needs to be replaced before anything else goes on. Decking repairs are handled as part of the project; we’re not going to put a new roof over wood that isn’t in good shape. You’ll know about it upfront, and it’ll be included in the scope before we move forward.
For most standard residential roofs in the Adamsville area, the tear-off and deck inspection can be completed in a single day. The full project timeline from tear-off through completed installation depends on the size of the roof, the condition of the decking, and the weather, but we’ll give you a realistic schedule before we start so you know what to expect.
