BE EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS OF CHEAP WALLABA SHINGLES BEING OFFERED FOR SALE THERE ARE SOME IMPORTANT FACTORS TO CONSIDER ABOUT THE GRADE OF SHINGLES WHICH CAN CAUSE YOUR ROOF TO LEAK

Wood is a natural product which has inherent defects in the tree. After the tree is cut, the log is converted to shingles. During the conversion process from logs to shingles there are many defects within the log which can become part of the finished product. Many architects, contractors, installers and home owners may not be familiar with such defects which can compromise the integrity of the roof.
