Getting a new roof is one of the most important investments you can make in your home. Whether you’re upgrading an aging system or replacing storm damage, the process can feel overwhelming—especially if it’s your first time.
As a trusted roofing company in Pittsburgh, Malick Brothers Exteriors believes in transparency and making the experience smooth and stress-free. Here’s a step-by-step guide so you know what to expect from start to finish.
Step 1: Inspection and Consultation
Every roofing project starts with a free consultation and full roof inspection. Our team checks for leaks, damaged shingles, flashing issues, and ventilation problems. We also listen to your concerns and discuss your goals, budget, and preferences.
Step 2: Detailed Estimate and Material Selection
You’ll receive a clear, written estimate outlining materials, labor, and timeline. We help you choose from roofing options like architectural shingles or metal, and walk you through underlayment, ventilation, and warranty options—tailored for Pittsburgh’s weather.
Step 3: Scheduling Your Project
Once you approve the proposal, we schedule your roof replacement based on weather conditions and material availability. You’ll receive a confirmed start date and tips for how to prepare your home and property.
Step 4: Site Preparation
Before installation, we protect your landscaping, place safety barriers, and set up a dumpster for debris. Materials arrive a day or two in advance, and our crew arrives ready to work efficiently and respectfully.
Step 5: Roof Tear-Off and Deck Inspection
We remove your old roofing system and inspect the decking beneath for hidden damage. If repairs are needed, we’ll let you know before continuing. We only build on a secure, solid surface.
Step 6: New Roof Installation
We install ice and water shields, underlayment, shingles, flashing, and ventilation components. Our experienced crew follows all building codes and manufacturer guidelines to ensure your warranty remains intact.
Step 7: Final Cleanup and Walk-Through
We thoroughly clean up the job site, sweep for nails, and inspect every detail. You’ll get a final walk-through with your project manager and a full explanation of your new roof and its warranty.
Step 8: Post-Installation Support
Even after your roof is complete, we’re here for you. If you have questions or issues, our team is just a phone call away. We stand behind our work with strong warranties and ongoing customer care.
