What goes into a properly installed roof valley?
Our project manager walks through the process step by step.
First, the valley is wrapped with synthetic underlayment before valley metal is installed. From there, the crew chalks a line 2 inches from the center of the valley. This gives them a consistent reference point as the bleeder shingles are installed and helps keep the layout even all the way up the valley.
Once the bleeder shingles are in place, the roofing shingles are installed in a book-like pattern, creating a clean, consistent layout while directing water toward the valley.
A roof valley is one of the areas where water naturally concentrates, so proper installation and attention to detail are especially important.
