When you're building new in Onaway, the roof is one of the most important decisions you'll make. It protects everything underneath it for the next 30-50 years. Onaway Roofing & Maintenance helps you choose the right material, designs proper ventilation, and installs it to manufacturer specifications.
Proper ventilation is the most overlooked element in new roof installation. We calculate intake and exhaust requirements per IRC R806 based on your attic square footage. Balanced ventilation (soffit intake matched to ridge exhaust) keeps your attic cooler in summer and drier in winter, extending roof life and reducing energy costs.
Our New Roof Installation Process
Plan Review & Consultation
Meet with our Onaway project coordinator to select materials, review color options, and confirm the installation scope. We work with your GC or architect to ensure the roof spec meets the overall building design.
Material Delivery & Staging
Materials delivered and staged on-site the day before installation. Shingle pallets, underlayment rolls, flashing stock, ridge vent, and fasteners, everything confirmed against the project spec sheet.
Certified Installation
From underlayment to ridge cap, every layer installed in the correct sequence by certified crews. A project manager is on-site for new construction installs to ensure quality at every stage.
Final Inspection
After installation: quality inspection, building department sign-off, manufacturer warranty registration, and cleanup. Your new roof is warranted from the day it passes inspection.
