Protecting Your Assets By Installing A Complete Roofing System![]()
At Mear's Roofing we believe in installing a "complete roofing system." That is why we are 1 of less than 20 GAF Master Elite roofing contractors in Washington State. Our single source manufacturer component roofing systems are installed carefully to the required specifications which allows us to offer up to 25 year workmanship warranties and limited lifetime material warranties.
To give that some perspective Washington State only requires a 1 year workmanship guarantee. While some contractors choose to offer above the state requirements they are not obligated to. That is why Mear's Roofing is your best choice for a Tacoma Roofing contractor, we protect what matters most to you with the best manufacturer backed warranty available in the Nation today!
The Role Roof Deck Condition Plays In Your System & Warranty
One area that is commonly brought up as a point of confusion with homeowners is when and why a resheet of the roof deck is required. It's important to understand that the roof deck is absolutely the foundation of your roofing system. Just like the actual foundation of your home, if its not properly poured and square the rest of the house will be affected.
Manufactures actually require a smooth and solid substrate as the foundation of the roofing system and there are many reasons for that! Read on below to learn the key reasons!
1) Manufacturer Warranty Requirements
The most important and simple reason is that most manufacturers require ship lap to be covered in order to provide a warranty. There is a tremendous amount of testing and national standards that have to be met called "ASTM" ratings in order to get a product into the market and offer tangible warranties. All of this testing is completed on sold roof decks, not on older roof decks.
2) Wind Uplift Warranty
When ASTM testing takes place on an asphalt shingle it must pass a "wind uplift" test. The shingle must withstand wind gusts of up to 110 MPH which is now the standard for asphalt shingles. The roof deck is the mot critical aspect of the wind warranty. On older homes where ship lap or skip sheathing was used the condition of the wood often becomes brittle and has lost alot of it's structural integrity due to expansion, contraction and moisture. The coil nails used to install the asphalt shingle needs to have a sold structure to penetrate into in order to withstand windy conditions. Installing a new rood into old brittle ship lap will more than likely result in "blow off" as the wind will rip single shingles or large sections of the roof right out of the compromised roof deck.
3) Telegraphing
The last key factor we would like to discuss regarding roof deck condition is what is known as telegraphing. In the roofing world telegraphing is when the uneven surface below the asphalt shingles begins to surface or show through the shingles. When the roof deck is uneven all of the imperfections will eventually warp the shingles and can damage them or compromise the integrity of the waterproofing if the condition is bad enough.
Mear's Roofing Does It Right, EVERY TIME!
If you are a potential customer of Mear's Roofing you are in great hands. Roof deck protection is an area we just will not compromise. That stand will result in a roofing system that will last for decades and provide you with peace of mind knowing that you will never have to wonder if the roof deck will eventually fail. That is the Mear's standard. To learn more about our roofing services and warranties click on the desired link below.
