DECKING INSPECTION AND REPAIR
Inspection of the roof decking for damage
Think of your roof decking like the foundation of your roof. It’s the wooden base that supports the shingles and everything else. At County Roofing, we don’t just slap new shingles on top of an old, potentially damaged deck. We carefully inspect it to make sure it’s solid and ready to hold a new roof. We’ll look for signs of rot, water damage, or any weakness that could cause problems down the road.
We want your new Owens Corning roof to last, and that means starting with a strong foundation. Our thorough inspection ensures that any underlying issues are identified and addressed before we install your new shingles. We’ll make sure your roof deck is in top condition, providing a solid base for your beautiful, long-lasting roof.
Replacement of any rotted or damaged wood
Should our inspection uncover any areas of rot or damage in your roof decking, County Roofing will promptly replace those sections with new, high-quality lumber. This proactive measure ensures the structural integrity of your roof and prevents potential issues down the line. We’ll carefully remove any compromised wood and replace it with durable materials that are properly treated and suited for roofing applications.
By addressing any decking concerns before installing your new Owens Corning roof, we guarantee a solid and reliable foundation for your roofing system. This meticulous approach ensures the long-term durability and longevity of your new roof.

INSTALLMENT OF UNDERLAYMENT AND FLASHING
Application of a protective underlayment layer
Think of the underlayment as a second skin for your roof. It’s a layer of protection that goes on top of the roof deck, underneath the shingles. This extra layer helps to prevent leaks, even if a shingle gets damaged. At County Roofing, we use high-quality underlayment that’s designed to work with your new shingles.
The underlayment also helps to prevent wind damage by reducing the risk of shingle lift-off during strong winds. This added layer of protection enhances the overall performance and lifespan of your roof, ensuring a dry and comfortable home for years to come.
Installation of flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys
Chimneys, vents, and valleys are critical areas where leaks can occur if not properly protected. County Roofing’s skilled professionals will meticulously install flashing around these vulnerable points, creating a watertight barrier that protects your home from moisture intrusion.
We utilize premium flashing materials that are specifically designed for roofing applications and are compatible with your chosen Owens Corning shingles. This ensures a secure and durable seal that protects your home from the elements and maintains the integrity of your roofing system.
Proper water barrier installation
In addition to underlayment and flashing, we also install a water barrier around the edges of your roof, in places like the eaves and rakes. This extra layer of protection helps to prevent water damage from wind-driven rain and ice dams, which are common in Long Island winters.
We use high-quality roofing brands of ice and water shield to create a strong barrier against moisture. This helps to protect your home from leaks and water damage, especially during harsh weather conditions. It’s another important part of your Total Protection Roofing System, ensuring your home stays dry and comfortable.

RIDGE VENT AND VENTILATION INSTALLATION
Installation of ridge vents and other ventilation components
Proper ventilation is essential for a healthy and long-lasting roof. It helps to regulate temperature and moisture levels in your attic, preventing problems like mold, mildew, and ice dams. At County Roofing, we install high-quality ridge vents and other ventilation components to ensure your attic is properly ventilated.
We’ll carefully assess your attic’s ventilation needs and install the right components to ensure optimal airflow. This helps to protect your roof from damage, increase energy efficiency, and create a more comfortable living environment in your home.
Ensuring proper attic ventilation
We don’t just install ventilation components; we make sure they work properly. Our team will test the airflow in your attic to ensure it’s balanced and effective. This helps to prevent hot and humid air from getting trapped, which can damage your roof and reduce its lifespan.
Proper attic ventilation is essential for maintaining a comfortable temperature in your home and preventing moisture problems. We’ll make sure your attic is properly ventilated, protecting your investment and ensuring your comfort year-round.
