Project Description
A residential home in Columbia, Maryland, needed an aging asphalt shingle roof removed before a complete new roofing system could be installed.
A1 Roofing’s KangaRoof completed a full tear-off of the existing shingles, cleared the exposed roof surface, and prepared the home for the next stages of the replacement process.
Project Overview
- Location: Columbia, MD
- Property type: Residential home
- Service performed: Residential roof replacement
- Existing roof: Asphalt shingles
- Main work: Full shingle tear-off and roof preparation
Removing the Aging Shingle Roof
The project began with complete removal of the existing asphalt shingles.
The crew worked systematically across the roof planes, stripping away the older roofing materials rather than installing the replacement system over the existing shingles. This gave A1 Roofing’s KangaRoof direct access to the exposed roof surface and created a clean working area for the new installation.

Preparing the Roof for the New System
After the tear-off, the crew removed remaining roofing debris and prepared the exposed surface for the replacement system.
The documented project included:
- Removing the existing asphalt shingles.
- Clearing old roofing materials from the roof.
- Exposing the underlying roof surface.
- Preparing the roof for the new installation.
- Organizing the work area for the remaining replacement stages.
The original project information does not identify specific decking repairs, underlayment products, ventilation upgrades, shingle manufacturer, or shingle color, so those details should not be added.

The Completed Roof Replacement
This Columbia project shows an important part of a complete residential roof replacement: removing the aging roofing system and properly preparing the exposed roof before installing the new materials.
Rather than covering the old shingles, A1 Roofing’s KangaRoof started with a full tear-off and prepared the roof from a clean working surface.
