Join Drew, our Sales Estimator at Mattsson Roofing, as he explains the essential underlayment materials used in roofing projects to ensure your home's protection and durability.

Key Roofing Materials Explained

• Ice and Water Shield: This water-resistant barrier is applied around edges and critical areas such as valleys and chimneys to ensure water rolls off effortlessly.

• Summit 60 Synthetic Underlayment: A crucial layer that allows your decking to breathe while providing robust protection against water.

• Drip Edge: Installed around the roof's rake, this metal piece prevents wind-driven rain from seeping under the decking and causing rot.

• Starter Strip: This tar-lined strip helps shingles adhere securely, preventing wind uplift and water infiltration at the roof edges.

• Shingles: The final layer, covering the roof slope and completing the protection system with style and durability.
