Tuesday, February 26th, 2019 by Lawrence Lambert
This is a self-sealing membrane designed for the most high-risk areas of the roof. These include the eaves, valleys, chimneys, and other roof penetrations and low-pitched areas. By having a second layer of protection, your home will be protected from Wind-Driven Rain, Back Flow from Ice Dams, and other roof penetrations.
GoldShield is a premium product that provides extra protection where synthetic underlayment is not enough. Additionally, it prevents the installers from slipping while they are working and seals around nails as the shingles are installed over GoldShield. GoldShield achieves these qualities by using a rubberized asphalt material and the granular surface creates strength and ensures moisture will not penetrate the roof.
