01
RGR removes the roofing system down to the roof deck so the decking can be inspected and damaged or rotten plywood can be replaced before the new roof is installed.
02
Ice and water shield is a waterproof membrane installed in vulnerable areas to help protect the roof decking if water gets under the shingles.
03
RGR uses CertainTeed synthetic underlayment as a reinforced secondary water-resistant layer. On Fortified roofs, the entire deck is covered with ice and water shield.
04
Drip edge flashing protects the roof edge and fascia. RGR installs drip edge using a staggered nailing pattern, with an upgraded Fortified drip edge option.
05
Starter strip strengthens roof edges where shingles are vulnerable to wind uplift. RGR uses fully adhered starter strip on every roof.
06
Correct shingle installation is critical for durability, weather resistance, and warranty protection. RGR uses a precise nailing pattern and 6 nails per shingle.
07
RGR installs upgraded rigid ridge vent with ring shank nails and a precise nailing pattern to improve ventilation and wind resistance.
RGR vs shortcuts
| Roofing Detail | RGR 5-Star Roof | Common Shortcut |
|---|---|---|
| Decking | Roof stripped to deck and inspected. | Old felt may be left in place, hiding damage. |
| Leak protection | Ice and water shield at key vulnerable areas. | Ice and water may be skipped to reduce cost. |
| Underlayment | Synthetic CertainTeed underlayment. | Basic felt can tear and offer less protection. |
| Edges | Drip edge and fully adhered starter strip. | Edges may be under-protected. |
| Shingles | 6 nails per shingle with precise nailing pattern. | Nailing pattern may vary by crew. |
