The CMS Roofing Standard
No shortcuts
No layovers
No guessing
Tear off the deck
Unlike many contractors, CMS Roofing rejects roof-over installations because they trap heat, add unnecessary weight, and void manufacturer warranties. Every residential roofing system is torn down to the decking level so structural wood can be properly inspected before installation begins.
The CMS Roofing installation process includes premium synthetic underlayment, proper ventilation planning, flashing protection in high-risk leak areas, and organized project management from start to finish.
