Shingle roofing is the backbone of residential roofing in Waddington. Whether you're choosing architectural shingles for their dimensional look or three-tab shingles for budget-friendly coverage, the installation process is what determines how long they last. Waddington Roofing & Maintenance follows manufacturer nailing specs and overlap requirements on every job.
Every shingle roof starts with the layers beneath the shingles. Synthetic underlayment rolls across the entire roof deck as the primary waterproof barrier. Ice-and-water shield goes down in the valleys, along the eaves, and around every penetration — chimney flashing, pipe boots, vent boots. Drip edge along every eave and rake directs water into the gutters instead of behind the fascia.
Our Shingle Roofing Process
Consultation & Inspection
Free on-site inspection. We measure, assess your roof deck condition, and walk you through architectural vs. three-tab shingles with realistic pricing. No pressure, just facts.
Strip & Inspect
Full tear-off to the deck. Old shingles, deteriorated felt, and corroded flashing removed and hauled to the dumpster. Deck inspection catches hidden damage — rotted sheathing, water-stained OSB, nail pops — before it's buried under new shingles.
Waterproofing Layer
Synthetic underlayment across the full roof deck. Ice-and-water shield in valleys, along eaves, and around chimney flashing, pipe boots, and vent boots. New drip edge installed at every eave and rake. Step flashing and counter-flashing at all wall transitions.
Nailing & Overlap
Field shingles installed with proper exposure and overlap. Nailed per manufacturer specs — 4 nails standard, 6 in high-wind zones. Starter strips at the eave prevent wind uplift. Ridge cap shingles finish every peak with integrated ridge vent for ventilation.
