Because Quality Roofing Materials Make For Quality Roofs
More Than The Sum Of Its Parts
When you have Affordable Quality Roofing Vancouver do your roof, the final product is more than the sum of its parts, but quality-roofing materials sure help!
For your roof to function at full capacity, the roofing materials must work together:
- Underlayment
- Outer Layer
- Ventilation
- Hip And Ridge Roof Shingles
- Attic Insulation
- Skylights
All Form Part Of A Complete Roofing System
What Is Roofing Underlayment?
The Underlayment is the roofing material that provides an immediate line of defense – so strong it can protect your home for up to 6 months of unprotected UV exposure. Underlayment is also a secondary water-shedding barrier, with roof shingles of course being the primary barrier.
Affordable Quality Roofing doesn’t use the “standard” felt underlayment, which doesn’t fare well in Vancouver’s humid climate. Our durable synthetic underlayment comes with a 30-year limited warranty.
What Is The Roofing Outer Layer?
The roofing outer layer is the roofing material you see when you look at a house. There are many roofing materials (sometimes called roof shingles) available:
- Cedar roof shingles,
- Fiberglass roof materials,
- Asphalt Roof Materials,
- Tin and metal roof materials,
- Roll Roofing
- Torch On Roofing
What Makes AQR Roof Materials Last Longer?
Affordable Quality Roofing is one of the only companies to use a Scotchguard algae resistant roofing system that protects the natural beauty and performance of your roof shingles. Copper stops algae, and when the precise level of copper-fortified granules are uniformly distributed in precise combination with standard colored granules, are washed across the surface of your roof by rain, it’s like a fresh coat of scotchguard every time.
The black discoloration found on homes in areas where moisture settles on shingles is not caused by mildew or fungus, it is roof algae. Algae staining can be prevented using this system to protect your roofing materials.
It is because of these types of extra little steps that we at AQR take, that we can offer an industry leading 25-year labour warranty.
