The basics of roofing caps sheeting



home remodeling ideas

The primary reason a building needs a roofing sheet is to protect its asphalt from the sunlight. Exposed asphalt can crack and break easily from constant sunlight. Also, water can get through the cap sheet and cause damage to the structure if it is not properly installed. Cap sheets are used to protect asphalt from the sunlight. Cap sheets are an additional ply that helps asphalt retain its flexibility.

Cap sheets, which are more durable than traditional roofing materials, do not need to be placed over other layers of roofing material. Instead, cap sheets are fused with the existing roof to increase the durability and impermeability of the roof, thus increasing the building's lifetime. To strengthen the bond between layers, it is common to add extra material. To bond the cap sheet to an existing roofing system, heat welding may be used. This makes the entire process quicker and easier.
