Repair and replacement of soft, rotted or damaged roof decking so new roofing sits on a solid, flat and properly fastened base.
The roof deck is the layer under the shingles that gives them something to hold. When it gets wet, it softens, sags and loses its grip on nails. Leaks, poor ventilation and old age are common culprits. Homeowners in Nashville often learn about deck problems when a roof is torn off, and they want a clear explanation and a fair plan.
We start with a Free Estimate and look for signs of deck trouble from the attic and the roof: sagging, dark stains, soft spots and daylight. On tear-off day we inspect the deck, show you any damage and replace boards or sheets as needed, using material that matches the existing thickness. We fasten new decking according to code and manufacturer requirements and make sure the surface is flat before underlayment goes on. Deck repair also gives us a chance to fix ventilation and framing problems at the same time. If rafters are damaged, if insulation is blocking airflow or if old fasteners are poking through, we can address those items while the roof is open. Taking care of the base of the roof now is far easier than doing it after the new roofing is in place.
We photograph damaged decking and explain where it is and why it needs replacement.
Plywood or OSB panels are matched to the existing deck and fastened to specification.
A smooth, tight deck prevents telegraphing, waves and uneven shingle lines.
We look for what damaged the deck, such as leaks or ventilation problems, so the new roof is protected.
