6-Part Roofing System |
|||||||
|
New England Roofing offers a 6-Part Roofing System: |
||||||
| 1. Ice & Water shield/ Bitchathane | |||||||
| A self-adhering, waterproofing shingle underlayment designed to protect against water infiltration due to ice dams or wind driven rain. |  |
||||||
| 2. Drip Edge | |||||||
| A
non-corrosive material installed around the perimeter of the roof,
to allow water run-off to drip clear of underlying construction and keep the trim protected. |
|||||||
| 3. Felt/Underlayment |  |
||||||
| A sheet of asphalt-saturated material (often called tar paper) used as a secondary layer of protection for the roof deck. | |||||||
| 4. Flashing | |||||||
| Pieces of metal used to prevent the seepage of water around any intersection or protrusion in a roof system, such as vent pipes, chimneys, valleys and joints at vertical walls. | |||||||
5. Shingles |
 |
||||||
| 25, 30, 40, 50 or Lifetime shingles are available. | |||||||
| 6. Ridge Vent: | |||||||
| Cutting
back the plywood 3 inches on each side of ridge and applying a fibrous material that is covered with cap shingles. This allows hot
air to escape as it rises to the top of the attic. |
