    Thank you. Great value. Today I rented a dumpster and began demo. As the old work is uprooted the prior installers didn't even peel the plastic strips to expose the tar strip.
    No one does a good job. And then they go defraud the insurance cos, jacking up my rates.

    I've heard that 30 lb felt has the important role of providing a source of asphalt to replenish the asphalt in the shingles as they dry out with age. Roofs with synthetic underlayment will fail 20% earlier because there is no replenishment with the synthetics. Just what I've heard.

    interesting how the culture play a part here. In Brazil wood frame and steel frame as relatively new and no one uses asphalt underlayment, it´s considered that only countries that are used to it still uses, on new construction only synthetic ones. In commercial buildings with more detailed projects sometimes is completely forbidden use asphalt underlayment that is considered a inferior product. I am not saying that I agree, I don´t have enough experience to do that but... it´s how it works here.

      I tend to agree. When I filmed this, they synthetic underlayments were just getting started. Anymore, that's all we use.

    Which products reduce noise from airplane flyovers the most? My general understanding from other sound deadening / noise reduction products is that the heavier the material the more noise reduction you get. (30 lbs felt paper or a heavy synthetic like Owens Corning Titanium UDL 50) seem like they'd do a better job than lighter, thinner underlayment).
    Most of the new synthetic underlayments seem to advertise more benefits to the installers than the home brewers from what I've been reading.

    In the USA they tend to rely on these underlays too much . Surely if the roofs are tiled or slated properly it should not get through to the underlay. The pitch of the roofs obviously is an issue. They are too shallow. In Europe its not normal to fit roofs on low pitches

    GAF tells their underlayment will not keep out water. If it rains before you shingle, your wood is getting wet.
    How's this a good thing?

      If you are going to criticize someone who is trying to be helpful, the least you could do is be constructive but that's not in your nature is it?

      @@arocketgal He's a salesman and has never put a roof on in his life. His job is to sell you something you don't need. After 30 years+ I tell them what I want not what they have to sale. All you have to do is ask then about local roofing codes, they have no clue.
