Roof installation is the process of constructing a brand-new roofing system on a newly built structure or as part of a major renovation. It involves laying down underlayment, flashing, and roofing materials—such as shingles, metal, or other durable options—to create a protective barrier that shields the home or building from the elements.

At Ferrer Construction LLC, our roof installation services are tailored to fit your project’s style, budget, and structural needs. Whether you’re building a new home or expanding a commercial property, we ensure every layer is installed with precision and care. Backed by over 25 years of experience in the Iowa City area, we’re committed to building strong, weather-resistant roofs that stand the test of time.

​Replacing your roof is a significant investment that requires careful planning and execution. At Ferrer Construction LLC, we've observed several common mistakes that can compromise the longevity and performance of a new roof. Here are key pitfalls to avoid:​

1. Selecting Inappropriate Roofing Materials

Choosing materials unsuitable for your home's architectural style or local climate can lead to premature deterioration. It's essential to select roofing materials that align with Iowa's weather conditions and your aesthetic preferences. 

2. Overlooking Proper Roof Ventilation

Adequate ventilation is crucial for regulating temperature and moisture levels in your attic. Poor ventilation can cause heat and moisture buildup, leading to mold growth and reduced energy efficiency. Ensuring proper airflow extends the life of your roof and enhances indoor comfort. ​

3. Reusing Old Flashing

Flashing directs water away from critical areas of the roof. Reusing old or damaged flashing can result in leaks and water damage. It's advisable to install new, high-quality flashing during a roof replacement to maintain a watertight seal. ​

4. Neglecting the Underlayment

The underlayment serves as a secondary barrier against water intrusion. Skipping this layer or using subpar materials can leave your roof vulnerable to leaks. Investing in quality underlayment is essential for comprehensive roof protection. ​

5. Hiring Unqualified Contractors

Entrusting your roof installation to unlicensed or inexperienced contractors can lead to poor workmanship and future issues. Always verify credentials, seek referrals, and choose a reputable company like Ferrer Construction LLC, known for quality and reliability in the Iowa City area.​

Avoiding these common mistakes ensures a smoother roof replacement process and a durable, long-lasting roof. At Ferrer Construction LLC, we're committed to delivering top-notch roofing solutions tailored to your needs.

A new roof is a major investment—but without a reliable gutter system, its protection won’t go as far.

By upgrading both systems together, you create a complete, weather-resistant barrier that defends your home from top to bottom.

Our seamless gutter systems are built to efficiently channel water away from your foundation, siding, and fascia—protecting your new roof from issues like water pooling, ice dams, and runoff damage.
