Advanced Components for Comprehensive Protection

The Total Protection Roofing System® integrates multiple layers that each play a vital role:

  • Seal:
      • Ice & Water Barrier: Protects against ice damming and wind-driven rain, especially around skylights, chimneys, and valleys.
      • Synthetic Underlayment: Acts as a water-shedding barrier underneath the shingles, providing an additional line of defense against moisture.
  • Defend:
      • Starter Shingles: Ensures straight edges and strong seals along the eaves and rake edges, areas susceptible to wind uplift.
      • Shingles: The primary defense layer that offers durability and aesthetic appeal with various colors and designs.
      • Hip & Ridge Shingles: Enhances protection at the roof’s hips and ridges, areas highly exposed to wind.
  • Breathe:
      • Intake Ventilation: Maintains a balance of air flow, replacing warm, humid air with cool, dry air to reduce moisture accumulation.
      • Exhaust Ventilation: Controls temperature and humidity in the attic, helping to prevent ice damming and extend the life of roofing materials.
  • Comfort:
    • Adding attic insulation helps meet the latest Department of Energy standards, enhancing your home’s energy efficiency and indoor comfort.
