A quality roofing system involves the underlayment, shingles and ventilation products all working together.
Day after day, year after year, a complete roof system is designed to provide optimum performance - no matter how bad weather conditions are.
After all, better quality shingles mean longer-lasting roofs. Add in underlayment and ventilation products, and you’ve got a roof system that really works.
To achieve this type of performance, you must first start with an underlayment such as 15# or 30# felt paper. This is an underlayment that provides protection. It is a high performance underlayment that provides a protective water-resistant layer over your roof deck.
The next step is to have a quality shingle, preferably at least a 30-year series minimum. High-quality shingles are available in a wide variety of styles and colors from several great roofing manufacturers like CertainTeed, GAF, Owens Corning, GAF and more.
All of the top brands have quality shingles to meet the requirements of a complete roof system.
Make sure to complete the system with all of the accessories. Hip and ridge accessories provide the perfect finishing touch in the appearance of any roof.
Finalistic or any equivalent type of roll roofing product should be used for porches, carports and any flat roof areas.
You will also need effective ventilation to help guard against premature roof deck deterioration and provide year-round benefits. A properly balanced ventilation system is required for a roof to qualify as a complete shingle roofing system.
