At Impact Roofing & Renovations, we understand that a robust roofing system is fundamental to the safety and durability of your home. A vital yet frequently underestimated component of this system is the underlayment. It acts as a protective blanket that fortifies your home against a myriad of environmental challenges. Our blog today sheds light on the significance of this crucial layer, particularly in the context of a roof replacement, and why opting for cutting-edge products surpasses traditional methods.
Decoding Underlayment in Roof Replacement
The underlayment is essentially the armor that lies beneath the visible shingles of your roof. It’s a pivotal aspect of a roof replacement, providing an extra layer of defense against moisture, winds, and other forces of nature. When you’re embarking on a roof replacement, the choice of underlayment can be the difference between a good investment and a great one.
Elevating Roof Replacement with Impact Roofing & Renovations
While we recognize the industry’s respect for brands like Owens Corning, Impact Roofing & Renovations is dedicated to integrating only the highest quality underlayment in our roof replacement projects. Our approach ensures that each roof replacement not only meets but exceeds the expectations of durability and resilience.
The Shift Away from Traditional Felt Underlayment in Roof Replacement
The era of traditional asphalt-saturated felt underlayment is fading. Once a staple in roof replacements, felt paper is now being scrutinized for its lack of resilience and sustainability, particularly when it comes to a roof replacement in extreme weather conditions.
