roof replacement

Home's top renewal

Roof replacement is the complete removal and installation of a building's roof covering, as opposed to repairs or patching.

The term appears in contractor estimates, insurance claims, and home improvement contexts: The inspector recommended a full roof replacement rather than another patch job.

A roof replacement typically includes removing old shingles, inspecting the underlying structure, and installing new materials.
