New construction means we start with a clean deck and build the roofing system properly from the first layer. Ottosen Roofing & Maintenance has installed new roofs on hundreds of new builds across Ottosen, from custom homes to spec builds, from room additions to detached structures.
Our New Roof Installation Process
Design Consultation
We review your building plans, discuss material options, and calculate ventilation requirements. Roof pitch, attic space, local code amendments, and your aesthetic preferences all factor into the recommendation.
Material Delivery & Staging
Materials delivered and staged on-site the day before installation. Shingle pallets, underlayment rolls, flashing stock, ridge vent, and fasteners, everything confirmed against the project spec sheet.
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.

New Construction Specialists
We install new roofs on new builds every week. Our Ottosen crews know the pace, the coordination, and the quality standards that new construction demands.
Ventilation Design
We calculate intake and exhaust per IRC R806 for every new install. Balanced ventilation extends roof life and cuts energy costs. Most contractors skip this step.
About Our Ottosen 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.
New roof pricing depends on material choice, roof size, and pitch. Architectural shingles in Ottosen run $350-$550 per square installed. Standing seam metal is $12-$22 per square foot. We provide detailed proposals with exact pricing for your specific project.
