Composite Shingle Roofing & Installation
The ARMSTRONG ADVANTAGE Steep Roofing System includes:
1. Roof Deck Protection
Superior quality roof deck protection can:
- Prevent wind-driven rain or water from infiltrating under
your shingles.
- Provide extra protection between your shingles
and your roof deck.
- Lay flatter and not buckle when installed.
- Help reduce blow off by allowing your shingles to align more uniformly.
2. A Quality Leak Barrier will Help:
- Create a water tight seal that keeps water out
at the most vulnerable areas of your roof; the eaves, rakes,
valleys and around chimneys.
- Protect your home by preventing costly repairs due to wall
or ceiling
staining from leaks.
- Prevent leaks due to water backing up under the shingles
due to blocked gutters and wind driven rain.
3. High Performance GAFMC Premium Shingles
with:
- U.V. Blocker Protection.
- Color Lock Granules -Micro Weave Core®.
- Custom specified ultra high performance provides better
layer for layer protection.
- Dura-Grip® Adhesive seals each shingle tightly & reduces
risk of shingle blow off up to 110 mph.
- Class A fire rating from Underwriters Laboratory. One of
the highest ratings possible.
- Algae Eater (standard with specification of Grand Canyon
or better) protects the beauty of the shingles by resisting
unsightly blue-green algae.
4. Proper Attic Ventilation
Balances air intake at your eaves or soffits
and air exhaust at or near your roof ridge.
FHA recommends a minimum of at least
1 sq. ft. of attic ventilation (both intake & exhaust) for every
300 sq. ft. of attic space. Despite this recommendation 9 out
of 10 homes in America do not have proper attic ventilation which
can result in:
- Premature aging (fried shingles).
- Warping, cracking or breaking down of wood framing.
- Damage to siding and paint
- Higher energy costs
5. Distinctive Ridge Cap Shingles
- This perfect finishing touch accents the natural
beauty of your newly installed architectural shingle roof.
- Insures multi layer protection at the highest stress areas
of your roof - the hips & ridges. A striking & higher
quality alternative to using cut-up strip shingles as your
ridge cap.
