Whether you're replacing or repairing the roof, it's important to have a good foundation that protects your home from rain and weather. Roof underlayment provides a smooth, even surface to layer your shingles or other roofing materials, decreasing the chance of wind and ice damaging your roof. For roofing repairs, make sure you remove all shingles, nails and underlayment with a roof shovel before laying new underlayment.
Peel and stick roof underlayment is a popular choice, but can be a difficult task for one person. This underlayment comes in a roll and has a paper backing that peels off in two parts to allow a bit more control over the material. It's essential to place your underlayment smoothly with no ripples or bubbles so it forms a strong bond with the roof deck. Check out our guide — Installing Roof Shingles — for more information.
Metal roof underlayment — often made of polypropylene — self-seals around nails and metal roofing fasteners to prevent leaks. Other materials for underlayment include water-resistant felt that goes beneath shingles and waterproof rubber underlayment that protects against leaks from driving rain and ice dams.
