Cracked Tile and Roof Repair in Sun City West AZ
This Sun City West roofing project involved removing sections of the existing tile roof system so the underlying roofing components could be inspected and repaired. During the project, damaged roof tiles were identified and replaced while additional work was performed beneath the tile surface.
To properly evaluate the condition of the roof, sections of the existing tile system were carefully lifted and stacked. This provided access to the original builder-quality underlayment beneath the tile roof, which had been in service for approximately 30 years.
Removing Aging Underlayment Beneath the Tile Roof
After the tiles were removed from the work area, the existing underlayment was found to be deteriorated and torn in multiple sections. With the waterproofing layer exposed, the crew removed the aging underlayment down to the roof deck so the condition of the roofing system could be fully evaluated.
Once the original underlayment was removed, the underlying roof deck was accessible for inspection before new roofing materials were installed.
Inspecting the Roof Deck for Damage
With the roof deck exposed, the crew carefully inspected the existing OSB decking for signs of deterioration before rebuilding the roofing system. This inspection allowed any compromised areas of the deck to be identified before new materials were installed.
Any damaged decking discovered during the inspection process was replaced as needed before the roof system was rebuilt. Completing these repairs before installing the new underlayment helped ensure the roofing system was rebuilt on a properly prepared surface.
Installing New Underlayment and Completing Tile Repair
Once the deck inspection was completed, two layers of 40 lb felt underlayment were installed to create a new waterproofing barrier beneath the tile roof system.
The existing roof tiles were then carefully reset into place. During the reinstallation process, broken and cracked roof tiles were replaced as needed before the roofing system was reassembled.
With the new underlayment installed, the deck repairs completed, and the tile system reset, the project was ready for final completion.
