KNA Roofing: Professional Roof Tear-Off Services in Brooklyn, NY

Roof tear-off is integral when it is time to replace your roof. It is the process of removing your existing roof to install a new one. Skilled professionals from KNA Roofing will ensure a seamless, safe, and efficient roof tear-off in Brooklyn, NY, and surrounding areas. Whether you are looking for re-roofing or complete roof replacement, we can help you through each step, offering reliable services and expert advice.

Roof tear-offs may seem a bit chaotic, but KNA Roofing ensures that the process is well-organized to protect your property while efficiently removing your old roof. Here’s how we handle it:

  1. Protecting Your Property: Before starting, we protect your property by laying protective tarps from gutters to the ground.  These will shield landscaping, gardens, and pools so debris falls only in designated areas.  We will also move outdoor furniture and secure anything vulnerable to damage.
  2. Removal of Your Old Roof: Using specialized tear-off forks, we remove shingles and roofing materials efficiently. Our team controls debris, directing it onto tarps or dump trailers. While minor particles may escape, we clean your yard thoroughly after completing the tear-off.
  3. Handling Old Nails and Inspecting Decking: We remove or hammer down old nails to clear the decking and test its strength. When decking has shown weakness, we replace it with a firm base under your new roof. A final inspection will prove the surface is ready for installation.

KNA Roofing will offer a seamless professional tear-off process to prepare your home for a strong and durable new roof

Timeline of Roof Tear-Off Projects at KNA Roofing

Roof tear-off planning will include understanding how long the job will take. At KNA Roofing, we strive for efficiency and quality to ensure your project is completed on time without cutting corners.

How Long Does a Roof Tear-Off Take?

The roof tear-off duration depends on various factors, such as the size, complexity, and material selected. Most roof tear-off projects will take one to three days. Larger homes or roofs with much damage will take longer. KNA Roofing ensures the work is completed as quickly as possible without compromising quality.

Some of the factors affecting the timeline are:

  • Weather Conditions: Weather conditions make the timeline a critical factor in determining when to actually tear off. Rain, snow, or too much wind hampers working, especially with unpredictable weather in Brooklyn. Our experts monitor the conditions and schedule projects favorably for greater safety and efficient work.
  • Roof Size and Complexity: The size and structure of your roof also have a huge impact on the duration of the project. A simple roof design will take less time than a complex roof with multiple slopes or angles.
  • Material Removal and Replacement: The kind of material that is being removed and replaced will also affect the timeline. Some materials, like shingles, are quicker to remove, while others, like tiles or metal roofing, may take additional time.
  • Unexpected Repairs: During the tear-off process, the underlying issues could be water damage, rot, or structural problems. These must be fixed first to ensure a safe and durable roof but it can extend the project timeline.

Weekend and Holiday Availability

KNA Roofing recognizes that flexibility serves well for any busy homeowner with a tight schedule. We can agree to tear off your roof over the weekend or even on holidays to minimize interruptions in your everyday life. Our local operatives will perform at the same level of professionalism irrespective of the time we agree to work.

Tim B.

“Called KNA after some damages on my roof from a storm and they were very responsive and direct on what was needed to be done to prevent any further damages. Shortly after, I hired them for a full roof, gutter, and skylight replacement. The crew was super clean and left no mess behind. The new roof looks amazing and gave me peace of mind knowing I had made the right choice with hiring a professional contractor. As a homeowner I’ve come across many contractors throughout the years and KNA is one I would recommend to hire.
Thank you!!”
