When we talk about a new roofing installation, we are referring to the following:
New Roof Installation: Step by Step Break Down
If you’re considering a new roofing installation, make sure you understand the process involved.
- Tearing Off the Old Roof Safely
At Matlock Roofing, we give a lot of importance to safety and attention to detail in all our projects. To begin, we will tarp your home to prevent debris from falling and to ensure that the surrounding area is safe and secure. We will then proceed to remove all existing roofing shingles and tear off the old roofing felt from your deck.
This step is important to identify any underlying issues with the deck, including rotting wood. At Matlock Roofing, we pride ourselves on our thorough and comprehensive roof inspections.
Our commitment to excellence means that we can detect even the most subtle issues that may go unnoticed by an untrained eye. If your chosen roofing contractor does not follow this process, make sure to ask why they choose to skip this crucial step in protecting your home.
- Installing Drip Edge
Now that your roof deck has been prepared, it is time for the installation of the drip edge around the rakes and eaves of your home. Also known as the eave flashing, the drip edge plays a vital role in protecting the eaves of your home and preventing fascia from rotting by water damage.

Our experts will install the CertainTeed SwiftStart starter shingle along the eves of your home. These shingles serve as added protection for this damage-prone area. We have come across some roofing companies that utilize a regular 3-tab roofing shingle for the starter course just to cut costs. However, this may result in a lack of adhesive for the first course of shingles and make them susceptible to wind-blown rain.
To avoid poor-quality roofing installation, make sure to choose a reputable project manager who can clearly explain their installation process. For added assurance, project managers from trusted roofing companies like Matlock Roofing can also provide visual demonstrations of their new roof installation process.
- Installing Field Shingles
Now, it is time for the installation of the field shingles. This is again an important step in the roofing process. The CertainTeed Landmark series roofing shingle is a top-of-the-line asphalt shingle that has outstanding durability and lasting beauty. Each shingle in this series meets the high standards of quality set by CertainTeed.
As a result, when installed by a Select Shingle Master roofing contractor like Matlock, these shingles qualify for a 50-year warranty from CertainTeed. This means, your investment is secure and will endure for decades to come. Our warranties are unmatched in the industry and provide our customers with the best possible coverage. With a 5-star roofing warranty from CertainTeed, you can have peace of mind knowing that you have made the best decision for your Hattiesburg, Petal, or Purvis home.
- Installing Ridge Vent
The next crucial step is cutting out the ridge vent and installing the hip & ridge shingles. If you want to achieve optimal functionality of your roofing system, make sure that the ridge keyway of your roof is accurately cut out. Once this is completed, our experts will install the CertainTeed 12” ridge vent, which is a standard ridge vent we use at Matlock Roofing. This will allow proper ventilation and cooling of your attic, which in turn will ensure your roofing system functions seamlessly with your attic insulation and ventilation. This will ultimately help extend the lifespan and maximize the performance of your roofing shingles.
- Installing Hip & Ridge Shingles
After the installation of the ridge vent, the final step is the installation of hip & ridge shingles. At Matlock Roofing, your trusted local roofing contractors in Hattiesburg, Petal, and Purvis area, we use high-quality CertainTeed Shadow Ridge or Mountain Ridge hip & ridge shingles.
- Roofing Cleanup
We understand that the roofing process can be long and exhausting. So, at Matlock Roofing, we are committed to completing the job to perfection in a smooth and hassle-free manner. Our team of experienced and qualified roofing professionals not only uses the best products at every stage of all our projects but also ensures a spotless cleanup at the end.
As part of our commitment to quality workmanship, we make it a point to clean up all old, shingled roofing material and ensure that all nails and other sharp objects are removed from your property. We even go the extra mile to double-check your flower beds and yard to ensure no debris is left behind. To guarantee a thorough cleanup, we also utilize industrial-strength magnets to find and remove any stray nails that may have been overlooked.
At Matlock Roofing, our mission is not only to help you get your dream roof effortlessly but also to leave your property in pristine condition.
