Installation Guidelines for Maximum Performance

To ensure the best performance of BCP Roof Underlayment, follow these expert installation steps:

  • Surface Preparation:

    • Ensure the roof deck is clean, dry, and free of debris before installation.

    • Replace any damaged decking materials before applying underlayment.

  • Unrolling & Positioning:

    • Start from the bottom edge of the roof and work upward, overlapping sheets by at least 4 inches.

    • Align sheets parallel to the roof edge to prevent misalignment.

  • Fastening:

    • Secure underlayment using cap nails or roofing staples every 12-18 inches along edges and 24 inches in the center.

    • Avoid over-tightening fasteners to prevent tearing.

  • Sealing & Overlapping:

    • Use BCP-approved seam tape for added waterproofing at overlaps and joints.

    • Ensure valleys and edges are fully sealed for optimal protection.

  • Final Inspection:

    • Inspect the entire underlayment for any wrinkles, gaps, or missed fasteners.

    • Ensure proper ventilation to avoid trapped moisture.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Why is roof underlayment necessary?

Roof underlayment acts as a protective barrier between the roofing material and the roof deck, preventing water infiltration, enhancing insulation, and increasing the durability of the entire roofing system.

How does synthetic underlayment compare to felt paper?

Synthetic underlayment is stronger, more durable, lighter, and more resistant to water and UV exposure compared to traditional felt. It provides better protection and longevity for modern roofing systems.

Can BCP Roof Underlayment be left exposed before final roofing installation?

Yes, our synthetic underlayments offer temporary UV resistance for up to 6 months, but we recommend installing the final roofing material as soon as possible.

Is underlayment necessary for metal roofing?

Yes! Underlayment acts as a moisture barrier, prevents condensation buildup, and provides additional insulation for metal roofs.

How do I choose the right underlayment for my project?

The choice depends on your roofing needs—budget-friendly options like BCP RoofLayer Eco work for basic residential applications, while BCP RoofLayer Premium offers maximum durability and protection for high-end projects.
