When you're building new in Ankeny, the roof is one of the most important decisions you'll make. It protects everything underneath it for the next 30-50 years. Ankeny Roofing & Maintenance helps you choose the right material, designs proper ventilation, and installs it to manufacturer specifications.
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.
Our New Roof Installation Process
Plan Review & 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.
Pre-Installation Setup
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
Final quality check against manufacturer installation requirements. Building inspection coordinated through our Ankeny office. Warranty registered directly with GAF, Owens Corning, or CertainTeed.
