Shingle roofing is the backbone of residential roofing in Red Banks. Whether you're choosing architectural shingles for their dimensional look or three-tab shingles for budget-friendly coverage, the installation process is what determines how long they last. Red Banks Roofing & Maintenance follows manufacturer nailing specs and overlap requirements on every job.
Every shingle roof starts with the layers beneath the shingles. Synthetic underlayment rolls across the entire roof deck as the primary waterproof barrier. Ice-and-water shield goes down in the valleys, along the eaves, and around every penetration โ chimney flashing, pipe boots, vent boots. Drip edge along every eave and rake directs water into the gutters instead of behind the fascia.
Our Shingle Roofing Process
Shingle Selection
Our estimator examines your current roofline, checks the condition of the underlayment and flashing, and presents shingle options with honest pricing. GAF, Owens Corning, CertainTeed โ you pick.
Tear-Off & Deck Prep
Old roof stripped to bare deck. We inspect the plywood or OSB sheathing for structural integrity, replace any compromised boards, and prep a clean, solid substrate for the new underlayment and shingles.
Waterproofing Layer
Ice-and-water shield bonded at valleys and eave lines. Synthetic underlayment over the full deck. New aluminum drip edge at every eave and rake. All flashing โ chimney, pipe, vent, wall โ sealed and secured before a single shingle goes down.
Shingle Courses
Starter strips along the eave, then field courses of architectural shingles with manufacturer-specified offset and overlap. Each shingle nailed in the designated zone with 4-6 fasteners. Ridge cap shingles hand-nailed at every hip and ridge for a finished, watertight top.
