The Tomlin metal roofing installation process is different from your traditional shingle roof installation.
The process begins with removal of the entire existing roof covering, down to the wood decking. A full deck inspection is completed and any suspect wood is replaced. A synthetic high temp underlayment is installed to protect the wood decking during the roofing process from the elements.
The roof panels are formed on-site by a trailer-mounted roll former. The former takes flat coil stock and extrudes it into bent panels that match the specified length and width, prescribed by the Tomlin Roofing installer. Panels are then laid onto the roof deck and secured with a 29 gauge clip, every 24" on center.
After the panels have been secured, a power seamer is ran over the overlapped seams of the panels to create the double lock securement. Flashings for the chimneys, walls, and penetrations are fabricated by hand or ahead of time in our fabrication shop, and they are installed after the panels have been secured.
The Texas Hill Country, South Texas and Central Texas are some of the fastest growing areas for new homes. Metal roofing lasts a lifetime, it’s energy efficient and it comes in a variety of colors to compliment your new dream home. Your new construction builder can email Tomlin Roofing Professionals your plans, and we can create a budget estimate for your project. We will work closely with your contractor to ensure you get the quality your dream home deserves.
