Our Roofing system

Not all homes are the same, therefore not all roofs are the same. Roofing systems must work the same way. A roofing system must work by keeping water from standing on the roof's surface. To protect it from the elements, and provide thermal insulation. As well as, a roof must survive an expected period of time: this is dependent on the material installed. After a roof replacement, there should be no blemishes, or misaligned shingles.

At Spartan Roofing, we are replacing every roof with 3 key components: Ice and water shield, synthetic paper, and high quality shingles. This will ensure your home is 100 percent safe and a full warranty is provided.

Prior to a roof installation, the roof deck, the material supporting your roof most commonly made of plywood, must be inspected for mold and the structural integrity.

What is ice and water shield?

What is synthetic underlayment?

It is a waterproof roof underlayment membrane developed to protect vulnerable areas on a roof from ice and water damage. Ice and water protectors (sometimes called ice and snow shields ) are made with polymer-modified bitumen. This is placed on the first 3 feet of roof deck, on any roofing valley, and along any part where a roof deck meets a wall or chimney brick.

What is synthetic underlayment?

Synthetic underlayment is a layer of laminated polypropylene or polyethylene plastic material that goes over the roof deck. Its purpose is to provide an extra layer of protection to the roof system. This covers your entire roof and guarantees your roof is always protected. Colour may vary.

What is drip edge flashing?

Drip edge is a metal flashing that is installed at the edges of the roof to help control the flow of water away from the fascia (located behind the eavestrough) and to protect the underlying roofing components. Drip edge overhangs the sides of the roof and has a small metal flange that is bent away from the fascia.

What is a roof valley?

What is drip edge flashing?

A roof valley is formed where two slopes meet. Water collects in a valley to flow off the roof. Our system uses metal v-shaped flashing that is installed in the valley. This ensures water has no place to stay on the roof.
