How To Protect Your Home From Leak & Moisture Damage.

Safeguard Your Home & Your Belongings!

Roof Repair Orting

When a well-built home is properly maintained water is a benefit and a pleasure. On the other hand, uncontrolled water in our homes can cause damage, expense and considerable inconvenience. It can lead to mold growth, rotting wood and structural damage. It can also lead to the loss of irreplaceable personal belongings.

 Protecting your home by preventing leaks before they even begin by ensuring proper maintenance of you roof and regular inspections. The other aspect to protecting your roof from leaks and moisture is the roof system itself. The two products we will be discussing are GAF’s Weather Watch® Leak Barrier and Tiger Paw™ Roof Deck Protection.

WeatherWatch® Leak Barrier

weatherwatch

Create a 100% watertight seal that keeps water out of the most vulnerable areas of your roof (at the eaves and rakes, in valleys, around chimneys, etc.). WeatherWatch™ will help protect your home in the following ways:

  • Protect your home by preventing costly repairs due to wall or ceiling staining
  • Help prevent leaks due to water damming in your gutters, wind driven rain, and in the North, ice dams.

 

Why Choose WeatherWatch® Leak Barrier?

  • Looks Better: Fiberglass reinforcement helps resist wrinkling and buckling – lays flat under shingles.
  • Meets Building Codes: In the North, where leak barrier MUST be used.
  • Peace of Mind: Benefits from the same warranty term as the asphalt shingle it is applied under, up to a maximum of 30 years.
  • Helps Eliminate Waste: Special Adhesive allows for one-time repositioning, but aggressively adheres over time.
  • Safer Installation: SlipGuard™ granular surface improves footing.
  • Dependable: Self-seals around nails or metal roofing fasteners.
  • Saves Labor: Split-back release film peels off in layers for faster installation and greater homeowner value.

 

 

Tiger Paw™ Roof Deck Protection.

Tiger Paw

Roof deck protection should protect you rhone by providing a critical extra layer of protection between your shingles and your roof deck. It helps prevent wind driven rain or water from infiltrating under your shingles. In addition TigerPaw™ will help protect your home in the following ways:

  • Helps to reduce damaging moisture that can become trapped on your roof deck.
  • Provides longer lasting leak protection than conventional “felts” (which can rot or become brittle before your shingles reach their useful life.)

 

Why Choose TigerPaw™ Roof Deck Protection? 

  • Better Looking Roof: Tiger Paw™ Roof Deck Protection resists wrinkling and buckling that can “telegraph” through your roof shingles and detract from its finished appearance.
  • Special Moisture-control Design: Helps remove nearly twice as much damaging moisture from your roof deck as the leading synthetic non breathable underlayment.
  • Durable Construction: Non-asphativ, polypropylene construction for long lasting performance.
  • Peace of Mind: Up to a Lifetime ltd. warranty when installed on Lifetime Shingle Roofs.
