What to Expect During Asphalt Shingle Roof Installation
Roof replacement is a big project, and knowing what to expect ahead of time can make the experience simpler. Alco Products’ process covers everything from protecting your property on day one to walking through the finished roof together at the end. A dedicated project manager stays on-site throughout your project to keep everything running smoothly and answer any questions that come up along the way.
Job Site Setup and Property Protection
Before anyone on our team touches the roof, we take care of everything around it. Landscaping, driveways, and exterior surfaces near the work zone all get covered and protected. We organize the site so materials and equipment have a clear footprint and aren't scattered across your yard. Getting access to your home is something we take seriously, and we treat your property accordingly.
The Roof Installation Process
We start by removing the existing shingles and taking a close look at the roof deck underneath. If we find any damaged sections, we handle those before moving forward. From there, we install the underlayment and then the CertainTeed shingles, placed by certified professionals who know the product inside and out. Proper flashing around penetrations and a clean ridge cap finish bring the whole system together.
Cleanup, Inspection, and Final Walkthrough
Once the roof replacement is done, we clean up thoroughly, including magnetic nail sweeps to make sure no stray fasteners are left behind in your yard or driveway. Your project manager conducts a final inspection and then personally walks you through the completed roof. A clean job site and a proper walkthrough are just part of how we do things, not something you have to ask for.

Common Questions About Asphalt Shingle Roofing
3-tab shingles are single-layer products with a flat, uniform appearance, while architectural shingles use multiple bonded layers to create thicker dimensional profiles. Architectural shingles are heavier and generally perform longer, making them the standard choice for most residential replacements. The right fit depends on your roof's profile and your project goals.
Asphalt shingle lifespan varies based on product grade, ventilation, and installation quality. Architectural shingles generally outlast 3-tab products, and proper installation by certified contractors significantly affects full lifespan performance. The installation method matters as much as the material.
We start with job site setup that covers driveways, landscaping, and nearby surfaces before the tear-off begins. A dedicated project manager stays on-site throughout the roof installation. Once the project is complete, your project manager will conduct a final walk-through with you. We also perform a thorough cleanup, which includes magnetic nail sweeps.
