First Class Roofing & Siding

Roofing felt acts as a waterproof barrier between the sheathing and the roofing material (shingles, etc.). We recommend using 15-30 lb. roofing felt. It is necessary to apply the roofing felt (tar paper) to a clean, dry surface immediately after the sheathing is completed to protect it from the weather.

If, however, this is not possible and the sheathing gets wet, allow it to dry for a couple of days before applying the felt so as not to trap any moisture that may cause damage to the sheathing. Felting applications vary according to the type of roofing so determine the proper application before beginning.

Waterproofing Underlayment
For a roof to last, your Roofing System must include protection from ice dams and wind-driven rain. This is accomplished by installing waterproofing underlayment directly beneath the shingles. Self-adhesive waterproofing underlayment is perfect for both new construction and reroofing projects.

In addition to protecting the roof deck from damage from ice dams and wind-driven rain, WeatherLock should be used on areas of the roof where water has a tendency to collect or flow. Valleys, vents, chimneys and skylights are examples of spots where WeatherLock series waterproofing underlayment should be considered.

Protect against normal water flow around valleys, vents, chimneys, and skylights. Helps prevent roof deck damage from ice dams and wind-driven snow.
