At Best Choice Roofing, we know that a roof is more than shingles and nails; it’s your first line of defense against Fayetteville’s blazing sun, sudden downpours, and the occasional gusty storm. That’s why we’re proud to offer top-quality asphalt shingles, including three-tab, architectural, premium, and impact-resistant options, to homeowners throughout the Fayetteville area. With over a decade of trusted service, we always go the extra mile, whether we’re inspecting weather damage or guiding you through a full roof replacement.
If your roof is due for an upgrade, you’re not alone. Fayetteville’s humid summers, temperature swings, and storm season can wear down even the toughest shingles over time. Replacing your roof is a big project, but with a little prep work, it doesn’t have to be a stressful one. A well-prepared home makes for a smoother, safer, and faster roofing process for everyone involved.
Let’s break down the top five ways to get your home and roof ready for replacement day:
1. Clear the Perimeter
Roofing can get messy. Shingles, nails, and old materials will be coming off quickly, and that means debris might land around the outside of your home. Move cars, bikes, patio furniture, potted plants, and anything fragile at least 15 feet away from your house to keep them safe and to give the crew easy access to work.
2. Cover or Move Valuables Inside
While we do our best to keep the mess to a minimum, roofing is a noisy, high-impact process. If you have fragile items or artwork on the walls, especially in the attic or top floor, take them down before the job starts. Cover items in your attic with old sheets or tarps to protect them from any dust or stray debris that might sneak through.
3. Secure Pets and Kids
Roof replacements can be loud. If you’ve got little ones or furry friends who are sensitive to noise, it might be a good idea to arrange for them to stay elsewhere for the day. At the very least, let them hang out in a quieter part of the home while work is underway.
4. Trim Back Trees and Mow the Lawn
Got tree branches hanging near your roofline? Give them a quick trim before installation day to help the crew access all areas safely. A freshly mowed lawn also helps make post-job cleanup easier, nails and small debris are easier to spot and collect on short grass, especially when we roll our magnetic sweepers over your yard afterward.
5. Communicate With Your Roofing Team
We always show up ready to work, but a little communication goes a long way. Let us know if there’s a preferred area to park, or if you’ve got sprinkler systems, outdoor outlets, or sensitive landscaping that we should be aware of. The more we know ahead of time, the better we can protect your property while we work.
