Roof Decking Replacement

The deck supports roof coverings and their fasteners. Attic staining, an uneven roof plane or persistent leakage may warrant investigation on a Lawrence, KS property. These observations cannot reveal every concealed defect; tear-off may expose deterioration that changes the scope.

Deck condition beneath the covering
Work can involve replacing unsound sheathing, addressing loose sections and preparing a suitable surface for new underlayment and covering. Framing concerns should be distinguished from deck-panel replacement and evaluated before covering the area.

How broad should the repair be?
Discuss documenting, pricing and authorizing hidden damage. Lawrence guidance distinguishes ordinary re-decking from framing repairs; have the contractor confirm permit implications with the city for the actual work.

Discuss damaged roof sheathing and explain what is visible without entering unsafe areas.
