As you sit comfortably under your roof, enjoying the warmth of your home, have you ever thought about the layers working

tirelessly to protect you? Especially the underlayment, which serves as the first line of defense for your roofing system. In today’s

world, cantraditional felt still meet modern needs? Let’s compare.

 

 

The Limitations of Felt

 

 

Although felt has been a staple in roofing systems for decades, it comes with some undeniable drawbacks:
