work as proposed. We do advise that roofing warranties are worthless if proper ventilation is not addressed. We also advise of potential conflicts in a given system. Contrary to how most roofing contractors approach a given job, we do not always advocate use of a Ridge Vent. Ridge Vents are a fantastic form of exhaust ventilation. If used properly, they can do a world of good. If used improperly, results can be disastrous.We provide you with a written ventilation recommendation based upon government specifications. With this form and your new roof, you have added value and assurance that your roofing system will last test of time. http://www.fourseasonsroofingandsiding.com Four Seasons Roofing and Siding

The enigma comes in with transient nature of industry and employment of techniques that are improper. Roofing flashings are usually laborious to replace properly and almost always neglected. With a strong underlayment, an actual flashing leak can be disguised for several years. The leak, while unnoticed by building owner, is poised to present a major problem down road. The mentality that ice & water shield is cure-all is just wrong. The only time underlayment should be wet is in event of catastrophic weather conditions. Call us for an estimate and we will be happy to explain.
