New construction roofing
Roofing planned with the house—not added as an afterthought—helps the builder, other trades, and roofing details work together.
Plan early
Good coordination begins before the panels or shingles arrive.
Roof drawings, deck readiness, penetrations, walls, chimneys, drainage, material lead times, and the construction schedule all affect the roofing work.
Early conversations allow important transitions to be understood before they become urgent jobsite decisions. MG Metal Roofing can review the roofing scope, discuss metal or shingle options, and coordinate the planned sequence with the appropriate project contacts.
For projects in designated coastal areas, windstorm inspection requirements should also be considered during planning.
Coordination points
The roof connects with many parts of a new home.
Other trades
Plumbing, HVAC, masonry, siding, and electrical work can affect penetrations and roof-to-wall details.
Schedule and protection
Dry-in, material delivery, access, weather, and follow-on work should be considered in the sequence.
From plans to roof
A clear construction sequence.
Every project is different, but communication at each stage prevents avoidable surprises.
Review plans
Understand the roof design, material choice, scope, and project contacts.
Confirm readiness
Coordinate site access, deck conditions, penetrations, and the installation window.
Install
Complete the roofing system in the planned sequence with required inspections.
Coordinate finish
Review details, cleanup, and any remaining work involving other trades.
Common questions
Before the roofing phase begins.
When should the roofer become involved?
Earlier is usually better, especially for complex metal roofs, unusual transitions, long-lead materials, or projects involving windstorm inspections.
Can MG Metal Roofing work from construction plans?
Plans are useful for understanding the project and preparing a bid, but field conditions and final dimensions still need to be confirmed at the appropriate stage.
Do you install both metal and shingle roofs on new homes?
Yes. MG Metal Roofing can discuss both types and the preparation, scheduling, and detail requirements of each.
Planning a new home or addition?
Share the project information with MG Metal Roofing so the roofing scope and next steps can be discussed.
