Your roof protects your most important asset–your home. So when you’re looking for a roofing contractor, invest in one that provides you with the complete GAF Lifetime Roofing System.
This roofing system is not just about shingles. It is composed of six vital components that work together to create a perfect structure to provide your home with the utmost protection. Read on as Hinkle Roofing, a certified GAF Master Elite Roofer, break down the different parts of this roofing solution.
1. Leak Barrier
In order to help prevent any water leakage brought about by wind-driven rain and ice dams, this self-adhering waterproof membrane is applied to the roof’s most vulnerable areas.
2. Roof Deck Protection
This second layer of protection shields the roof deck to keep it strong, dry and away from any moisture penetration caused by wind-driven rain. It also prevents elements that can blow underneath the shingles.
3. Starter Strip Shingles
These are powerful adhesive strips that are mounted on the eaves. They keep the shingles together to lessen the chances of being blown off.
4. Lifetime Shingles
GAF Lifetime Shingles deliver both in beauty and protection. They come in an array of colors and styles to suit the taste of any discerning homeowner. With its Advanced Protection® Technology, these shingles can withstand intense conditions. It uses quality limestone content and proprietary glass fiber orientation.
5. Cobra Attic Ventilation
These vents help remove the damaging heat and moisture from the attic to prevent mold growth and roof deck damage. This will in turn reduce the probability of roofing repairs.
6. Ridge Cap Shingles
This is the finishing touch that helps protect against leaks at the roof’s ridge and hips. It also looks similar to the Lifetime Shingles for that uniform appearance.
