Rolled roofing is a roofing material made of similar roofing materials used in the composition of shingles but is not as durable. It is often installed over bare wood sheathing or sheathing that has been painted with a primer. Applying roofing felt first will better protect the sheathing against condensation and leaking.
The basic process of installing rolled roofing is:
1. Install drip-edge flashings, roofing felt, and WSU as needed.
2. Attach the first course or strip of roofing.
3. Attach the second course with 4-inches of overlap over the first.
4. Spread roofing cement to seal
5. Seal vents with roofing cement around the pipes
6. Overlap the valley
7. Attach the final piece to finish the installation
Although more manageable than other roofing materials to install, a professional roofing contractor should install roll roofing to ensure maximum durability and longevity.
