Roof Decking Replacement in Gainesville, FL

Roof decking replacement in Gainesville, FL usually comes up once the old shingles are off. Plywood or plank sheathing that stayed wet under a slow leak can turn soft, delaminate or rot, and new roofing cannot be fastened to it securely.

Decking work during a reroof
Work may include replacing soft or rotted sheets, adding plywood over wide-gap plank decking, renailing sound boards, and checking rafters below before new underlayment and roofing go on.

Repair or replace?
Because damage often stays hidden until tear-off, ask how the estimate handles extra decking and whether you will see photos. New sheathing is nailed to meet Gainesville's 130 mph design wind speed.

Ask about roof decking and mention any soft spots, sagging or attic stains.
