How Do I Prepare for a Roof Replacement?
If you are considering a roof replacement but don’t know how to prepare for it, don’t worry! Prepping your home isn’t difficult. You should simply allow for enough time to move things around and make sure your family is aware of all the commotion that is about to take place. Once that is done, you should be ready.
Tips and Tricks
Here are a few key things to consider when preparing for a roof replacement:
Protect Items in Your Attic
If you have boxes or miscellaneous furniture pieces stowed away in your attic, removing or covering them is always a good idea. With constant banging on your roof and heavy footsteps causing a ruckus, dust may fall from the rafters and sprinkle down on your belongings. This can create a mess and add an unnecessary cleaning chore to your to-do list. Instead, be mindful of what you have stored, and find a way to prevent dust from coating your items.
Secure Your Valuables
If you have art, mirrors, or chandeliers hanging around your home, consider a way to temporarily remove these pieces from their precarious spots. A roof replacement can cause plenty of commotion, which may put your breakables at risk of falling and crashing on the floor.
Keep Your Vehicles Out of the Driveway
While your roof replacement is underway, debris may fall from your roof to the ground. This can be a headache if your car is in the driveway, as fallen roofing materials could cause damage to your vehicle. And, if loose nails are strewn about, you run the risk of a flat tire when backing out of the driveway.
Relocate Outdoor Items
Similar to your car, outdoor items like potted plants, patio furniture, or bikes should be stored or moved out of the way. Anything that lingers around the perimeter of your roofline may be subject to damage, so the better it is protected, the less likely you are of having to contend with broken belongings.
Take Children and Pets into Account
The continuously pounding of a roof replacement can be overwhelming for children and pets. Therefore, arranging for a pet sitter or a playdate can be beneficial. This will prevent your children or pets from feeling any distress from the loud noise of a roofing project.
Choose a Roofing Company You Can Trust

Customer Reviews
Excellent service. Any question I had was addressed in a friendly yet professional manner. I have used Pond before for replacement windows and siding and most recently for new roofing. I highly recommend them for their responsiveness and the high quality of their work.
Easy communication with tons of photos and excellent job! Pond Roofing even came back to replace the color of the shingles to our satisfaction. The property was in McLean and they made me look great since my landlord client was very impressed. The swag cookies to our tenants was an added bonus. :-) Thanks so much!
Very fast initial response time and great customer service. Repair work was done (by prearrangement) while we had to be out of town and it looks great now that we are back. We have used Pond before and would call them first if we need roofing work in the future. Thanks!
Great communication, very professional repair crew. We have a new construction house that had some issues with vent seals after 10yrs and Pond fixed 8 different areas in one day--very happy with the work.
I recently hired Pond Roofing to check out a leak. They did a great job coming in on time and to troubleshoot the issue. Their pricing was competitive and overall service was excellent. I’m very happy with their work.
Pond Roofing was very responsive and knowledgeable about the condition of our roof. They delivered before the expected date and their work was impeccable. I cannot recommend working with Shanti enough.
Quality and Integrity. Terrific job on a roof repair. Called for a minor fix which was expertly accomplished. Patrick performed a complete inspection, ensuring no other damage or work needed. Perfect!
