No, you don’t need to be home during your roof replacement. Most homeowners choose to leave while the crew works — especially since roof replacements can be noisy and involve plenty of movement around the home. Above Roofing’s team communicates clearly throughout the process, so you’ll always know what’s happening whether you’re home or away.
What to Expect During the Process
- Arrival & Setup: Crews typically arrive in the morning and prepare the work area safely.
- Noise & Vibration: Expect hammering and equipment sounds during removal and installation.
- Clean-Up: Above Roofing performs an intensive clean-up, including magnet sweeps for nails, before leaving the site.
- Photo Updates: Homeowners receive progress photos documenting every stage of the project.
If you have pets or young kids sensitive to noise, plan to spend the day elsewhere. When you return, you’ll have a brand-new roof — and a spotless yard.
