Shingle roofing is the backbone of residential roofing in Booker. Whether you're choosing architectural shingles for their dimensional look or three-tab shingles for budget-friendly coverage, the installation process is what determines how long they last. Booker Roofing & Maintenance follows manufacturer nailing specs and overlap requirements on every job.
We install every shingle roof to manufacturer specifications. That means 4-6 nails per shingle in the designated nailing zone, proper offset between courses, starter strips along the eave, and ridge cap shingles at every hip and ridge. When the manufacturer inspector shows up, your roof passes.
Our Shingle Roofing Process
Shingle Selection
We inspect your existing roof deck and sheathing, measure the area, and help you choose between architectural and three-tab asphalt shingles. Color samples brought to your Booker home.
Old Roof Removal
Old roof stripped to bare deck. We inspect the plywood or OSB sheathing for structural integrity, replace any compromised boards, and prep a clean, solid substrate for the new underlayment and shingles.
Underlayment & Flashing
Ice-and-water shield bonded at valleys and eave lines. Synthetic underlayment over the full deck. New aluminum drip edge at every eave and rake. All flashing — chimney, pipe, vent, wall — sealed and secured before a single shingle goes down.
Nailing & Overlap
Field shingles installed with proper exposure and overlap. Nailed per manufacturer specs — 4 nails standard, 6 in high-wind zones. Starter strips at the eave prevent wind uplift. Ridge cap shingles finish every peak with integrated ridge vent for ventilation.
