Simple Roof Projects, Predictable Results
Residential Roof Installation for Today’s Homes.
Cittrix approaches new roof installation the same way it handles replacements, with a focus on predictable cost and clear communication.
You’ll receive a clear estimate before work begins, ensuring transparent fixed costs with no change orders, extra fees, or confusing fine print.
Within ten days of permit approval, crews arrive with plant-safe tarps and driveway boards, complete the dry-in before noon, and finish ridge and trim before evening. After cleanup, you get time-stamped photos, material warranty registration, and Cittrix’s lifetime labor promise.
The entire experience is designed to be refreshingly simple; we strive to keep schedules on track and homeowners free from last-minute surprises.
● Fast Turnaround with work starting within 10 days of permit approval and most asphalt roofs built weather-tight in 1-2 days.
● Transparent Pricing covering materials, labor, permits, and cleanup.
● Lifetime Warranty for peace of mind and confidence in your investment.
● Clean Site Guarantee with magnet sweep, gutter flush, and haul-away before final sign-off.
Our Residential Roof Installation Roadmap
How We Build a Lasting Roof.
Pre-start Walk & Permit Post
Site leader confirms access, marks utility lines, and posts the building permit so inspectors can enter without delays.
Material Drop & Weatherproof Cover
Shingles and underlayment arrive the afternoon before the crew, covered with breathable wrap to stay dry overnight.
Deck Inspection & Prep
Crew checks sheathing for gaps wider than one eighth of an inch, replaces any soft boards, and tightens protruding nails so the roof sits flat.
Ice & Water Shield
A high-tack membrane is installed at eaves, valleys, and all penetrations, forming the first waterproof seal against wind-driven rain and ice dams.
Synthetic Underlayment
Lightweight, slip-resistant sheets run from eave to ridge, creating a secondary barrier that outlasts felt and lies smoother under shingles.
Shingle Layout & Installation
Starter strip goes on straight using laser guides, then shingles are nailed in a six-fastener pattern with factory-approved pressure for wind warranty.
Flashing & Ventilation Finish
Chimney, side-wall, and skylight flashing is seated in high-temperature sealant, followed by ridge vent and caps for balanced attic airflow.
Cleanup, Drone Check, and Warranty Upload
Grounds are magnet-swept twice, gutters flushed, drone photos verify ridge lines, and material plus lifetime labour certificates are emailed within forty-eight hours.
