Why Your Roof Needs More Than Just a Shingle
When rain hits your roof, it doesn’t just slide straight down. Instead it follows the natural channels formed where two roof planes meet. Those intersections are called roof valleys, and they’re one of the most important (and most leak-prone) parts of any roofing system. A properly designed and installed valley ensures water flows off your roof quickly and efficiently.
When it comes to protecting your home from water damage, roof flashing is one of the smallest yet most important parts of your roofing system. While shingles and underlayment do the heavy lifting against rain and wind, flashing is what keeps water from sneaking in through the cracks — especially around roof penetrations and edges.
