When you're building new in Ricketts, the roof is one of the most important decisions you'll make. It protects everything underneath it for the next 30-50 years. Ricketts Roofing & Maintenance helps you choose the right material, designs proper ventilation, and installs it to manufacturer specifications.
Our New Roof Installation Process
Project Planning
Meet with our Ricketts 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
We coordinate delivery timing with your GC so materials don't sit exposed longer than necessary. Our staging crew organizes everything on the roof deck for efficient installation the next morning.
Certified Installation
Installation follows IRC building code and manufacturer requirements. Proper overlap, correct fastener patterns, sealed penetrations, and balanced ventilation. Our crews are factory-trained and know the installation manuals by heart.
Final Inspection
We schedule the building inspection and walk the roof with the inspector. Your manufacturer warranty gets registered the same day the roof passes inspection. You receive warranty paperwork within a week.

Why Choose Ricketts Roofing & Maintenance for New Roof Installation?
Ventilation Design
We calculate intake and exhaust per IRC R806 for every new install. Balanced ventilation extends roof life and cuts energy costs. Most contractors skip this step.
Builder Coordination
We work directly with your GC on scheduling, staging, and inspections. On-time delivery and clean work that doesn't slow down the rest of the build.
Full Manufacturer Warranty
Factory-certified installation means your new roof warranty is fully backed from day one. No gaps, no exclusions from improper installation.
New Construction Specialists
We install new roofs on new builds every week. Our Ricketts crews know the pace, the coordination, and the quality standards that new construction demands.
