There are all kinds of different home shapes and sizes. Some are taller than others and the pitch might be steeper than others. Here in Redford, Detroit area, most roofs use an asphalt shingle, which we have done many roof leak repairs on. However, it’s not the only type of roofing material. There are other materials sometimes used. For example, cedar shake, slate, rubber, or metal roofing materials. 

This is only the top layer of your roof, but there are more layers below that you can’t see. For example, right below the top layer is a protective sheeting. Installers put this layer down before shingling the roof to protect it from moisture. Many times, even if the shingle is penetrated, this can protect the water from getting into your home and causing a roof leak.

Right below this layer is the final layer, which is the wood. You’ve probably seen this if you’ve ever driven past an unfinished home, it’s the plywood you see laying across the top of the home before the asphalt shingles go on. This is typically a strong layer of lumber so that it can support the rest of the load of the roofing materials that lay on top of it.
