A roofing job requires two key elements: quality materials and expert workmanship. Without both, your roof may not provide the durability and protection your home needs. At Ideal Precision Roofing, we take pride in educating our customers about the materials we use and ensuring every project is completed with precision and care.

Underlayment is a critical barrier that prevents wind-driven rain and moisture from infiltrating the roof. Products like GAF Tiger Paw™ Premium Roof Deck Protection create a durable, breathable layer between the shingles and the roof deck, helping to extend your roof’s lifespan.
🔹 Make sure to measure your roof’s surface area accurately before purchasing underlayment. It’s sold in rolls, so double-check the coverage per roll and get enough plastic cap nails or staples for installation.
Leak barriers shield the most vulnerable parts of your roof, such as eaves, valleys, and roof penetrations. A product like GAF WeatherWatch® Leak Barrier is designed to prevent leaks caused by ice dams and wind-driven rain, reducing the risk of costly water damage.
Shingles are the outermost protective layer of your roof, designed to shield your home from weather and impact damage. Products like GAF QuickMeasure help accurately calculate how many shingles are needed for the job.
🔹 Always order 10% more shingles than your estimated coverage to account for waste and cuts around valleys and hips. Having extra shingles on hand ensures you’re prepared for future repairs.
Starter strip shingles are the foundation layer installed along roof edges to prevent shingle blow-off during high winds. Some manufacturers require specific starter strip products to match the type of shingles being installed, so be sure to check compatibility.
The hip and ridge areas of a roof are highly susceptible to wind and moisture damage. Hip and ridge cap shingles help seal these intersections, providing both protection and a clean, finished look.
Proper ventilation helps regulate attic temperature and moisture levels, preventing overheating, mold growth, and ice dams. A balanced ventilation system ensures that air flows in and out evenly, extending the life of your roof and improving energy efficiency.
At Ideal Precision Roofing, we only use high-quality materials from GAF, one of the most trusted names in the roofing industry. Our team is committed to expert craftsmanship, honesty, and superior customer service.
