What happens here
After the fascia is complete, the roofing crew arrives on site with their trucks and trailers carrying metal roof panels. They begin by installing the underlayment, which consists of two layers: a base layer of ice and water shield and a moisture barrier. These layers are crucial for preventing ice dams and water intrusion, especially in cold climates. The underlayment covers the entire roof surface, ensuring a weather-tight seal before the metal panels are installed. The crew utilizes ladders to access the steep A-frame roof and carefully rolls out and secures the underlayment.
Goal: Apply ice and water shield and moisture barrier to the roof
