That\u2019s why its components are layered in such a way that water or moisture has difficulty finding its way inside. One of these important components is the underlayment, which no roofing system can do without.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad-link\">\n<p class=\"blog-p\">Choose Excellence with <a class=\"DR_text-link-p-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dynamicroofingconcepts.com\/lakeland-roofer\/\">Lakeland Roofer<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<h2 id=\"Why-Is-the-Roof-Underlayment-Important\" class=\"blog-h2\">Why Is the Roof Underlayment Important?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"blog-p\">The asphalt shingles are the most visible part of any roofing system, and they also take the brunt of damage from inclement weather. They should be sufficient to keep rainwater out of your home, but that won\u2019t always be the case. If the shingles have suffered damage, it\u2019s more than likely that water and moisture will get past them. This is where the underlayment comes into play.<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog-p\">It\u2019s the thin waterproofing material installed between the shingles and the roof decking. The roof underlayment is an added measure against water infiltration \u2014 the final barrier that moisture has to overcome before it can actually trickle into your home. The underlayment not only prevents leaks but also extends the life of your roof system. It makes this possible by preventing mold and rot from developing in the roof decking, which itself is a crucial part of the roof structure.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"What-Is-the-Roof-Underlayment-Made-Of\" class=\"blog-h2\">What Is the Roof Underlayment Made Of?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"blog-p\">Given that the roof underlayment allows for a healthier, longer lasting roof, you\u2019ll want to make sure that it\u2019s made of an excellent material. Your top underlayment options may include these materials:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Asphalt-Saturated.<\/strong>\u00a0This used to be the go-to material for roof underlayment before synthetic choices entered the market. Still, asphalt-saturated remains a reliable option for a roof underlayment because it\u2019s water-resistant, flexible and cost-effective.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Synthetic.\u00a0<\/strong>This option offers improved water-resistance and flexibility, while being only slightly costlier than asphalt-saturated. One prime example of this is the GAF\u00ae Deck-Armor\u2122 Roof Deck Protection \u2014 a key part of the GAF Lifetime Roofing Systems offered by Dynamic Roofing Concepts, Inc. It sets itself apart from conventional synthetic underlayment thanks to breathable technology, which helps manage roof system moisture and provides additional protection against wind-driven rain.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"ad-link\">\n<p class=\"blog-p\">Is Your Tampa Roof Ready for Excellence?
