Layers & Components of an Asphalt Shingle Roof

A properly installed asphalt shingle roof is much more than just the shingles you see from the street. Each layer plays an important role in protecting your home. Here’s how your roofing system is built from the bottom up:

 

  • Roof Decking: Plywood or OSB base layer providing structural support.

  • Ice & Water Shield: Waterproof membrane for valleys and eaves to block leaks.

  • Synthetic Underlayment: Water-resistant layer over decking for added protection.

  • Starter Shingles: Edge shingles that aid in water runoff and wind resistance.

  • Asphalt Shingles: Main protective layer available in many styles and colors.

  • Aluminum Drip Edge: Protects edges from water, pests, and gives a clean finish.

  • Ridge Vents: Installed at the peak for attic ventilation and moisture control.

  • Flashing: Metal pieces around joints to direct water away from weak spots.

  • Hip & Ridge Caps: Finishing shingles that seal and protect roof peaks and hips.
