GAF Pro‑Start® Starter Strip Shingles

Pre-cut eave/rake starter strips are one of the most overlooked parts of a quality roofing system. That’s because some roofing contractors will try to use a cut-up 3-tab strip shingle as the “starter” course on your roof.Unfortunately, these cut-up shingles may not have properly positioned adhesive to help reduce the risk of shingle blow-off. Pro-Start® Eave/Rake Starter Strips are made with a high-quality, properly positioned adhesive applied at the factory to help prevent shingle blow-off.

Ridge Caps

Use Ridge Caps to Cool Your Home Unobtrusively

Ridge caps are probably the most unobtrusive, yet environmentally friendly way you can ventilate your home. Its simple but effective function, coupled with its low-profile form, can make it an ideal choice for homeowners who place a high value on both aspects.

A ridge cap is a metal piece that runs along the ridge of your home’s roof and serves as a vent for your attic. The space underneath the ridge cap is open to allow air to circulate in and out of your attic. A similar open space around the soffit area of the roof allows air to enter in the lower portion of the attic and rise as it heats up. The warmer air is forced out of the ridge cap, thus cooling the entire attic.
