⚠️ ATTENTION WHITE SETTLEMENT WHO DO YOU TRUST WITH YOUR ROOF? ⚠️
Take a look at what we just uncovered on this project! This roof had a total of 4 hidden layers buried underneath the shingles: 3 layers of old felt and 1 layer of full synthetic underlayment. When you choose a contractor, make sure you are choosing someone reputable, experienced, and trusted in the business for years. Because honestly? This could be your roof right now, and you would have absolutely no idea until the damage is already done.
Why is leaving old layers behind so bad for your home?
Massive Trapped Weight: Shingles and underlayment are heavy. Stacking multiple layers puts an immense, dangerous amount of extra weight on your home’s structural framing.
Trapped Moisture & Rot: Stacking new materials over old, degraded felt traps heat and moisture underneath. It creates a breeding ground for wood rot on your decking that you can't see from the ground.
Voided Warranties: Reputable manufacturers won't honor a shingle warranty if they are installed over a sloppy, multi-layered mess.
High Spots & Uneven Wear: You can't get a perfectly flat, sealed, and wind-resistant roof when you're nailing into spongy, uneven layers of old trash.
At R&J Contractors, we don’t cut corners, and we don't hide old problems under new shingles. We tear it down to the bare wood, inspect the decking, and build it back right—the first time.
