New construction means we start with a clean deck and build the roofing system properly from the first layer. Whittemore Roofing & Maintenance has installed new roofs on hundreds of new builds across Whittemore, from custom homes to spec builds, from room additions to detached structures.
Our New Roof Installation Process
Project Planning
We analyze your plans for pitch, square footage, ventilation needs, and code compliance. You get a detailed proposal with material specs, timeline, and fixed pricing before any work begins.
Pre-Installation Setup
We coordinate delivery timing with your GC so materials don't sit exposed longer than necessary. Our staging crew organizes everything on the roof deck for efficient installation the next morning.
Certified Installation
Installation follows IRC building code and manufacturer requirements. Proper overlap, correct fastener patterns, sealed penetrations, and balanced ventilation. Our crews are factory-trained and know the installation manuals by heart.
Inspection & Warranty
We schedule the building inspection and walk the roof with the inspector. Your manufacturer warranty gets registered the same day the roof passes inspection. You receive warranty paperwork within a week.

About Our Whittemore New Roof Installation Services
Proper ventilation is the most overlooked element in new roof installation. We calculate intake and exhaust requirements per IRC R806 based on your attic square footage. Balanced ventilation (soffit intake matched to ridge exhaust) keeps your attic cooler in summer and drier in winter, extending roof life and reducing energy costs.
We handle everything from permits through final inspection. Our Whittemore office pulls the roofing permit, coordinates material delivery, schedules the crew, and arranges the building inspection. Your GC or project manager gets regular updates and we stay on schedule.
