Typical Causes of Roof Problems
Lack of Maintenance
The failure to find and correct minor roof deterioration in the earliest stages is probably the greatest cause of premature roof problems. This is particularly true of roofing materials applied on relatively low-sloped roofs.
Weathering
All roofing materials deteriorate from exposure to the weather at rates determined largely by the kind of material and the conditions of exposure. In general, inorganic roofing materials tend to deteriorate less rapidly from exposure than organic roofing materials. All types of roofing materials may be damaged by hail. Exposure to air pollutants and industrial or salt-laden atmospheres may accelerate the deterioration process of some roofing materials.
Wind Damage
Roofing materials are subject to damage from strong winds and flying debris. Generally, roofs are not designed to withstand winds of hurricane and tornado intensity. However, moderate-intensity winds may also damage roofs, with gusts reaching 50 to 75 miles per hour.
The primary cause of wind damage is from the partial vacuum created by wind blowing over the edge of the roof. Nature tries to neutralize the low-pressure area by bringing in air from a higher-pressure area, usually from inside the building. This air pushes up on the bottom side of the roof assembly and, over time, loosens fasteners and breaks the adhesion making the roof susceptible to damage from the next moderate or strong wind.
Bon Air Exteriors ensure that roofing and insulation are adequately fastened to the roof deck and a securely-fastened perimeter detail will be provided along with Tamko TitanXT shingles that withstand wind speeds up to 160 MPH.

Our Process
The beauty of your roof is only half the story. Underneath are several additional layers. Read our installation process below.
1. Ice & Rain Underlayments
This is a waterproof barrier installed along the roof’s edges, valleys, and other vulnerable areas. It helps prevent water from seeping under the shingles due to ice dams or wind-driven rain.
2. Underlayments
A secondary layer of protection is laid across the entire roof deck. It acts as a moisture barrier beneath the shingles in case any water gets through the outer layer.
3. Shingle Starter
Starter shingles are installed along the roof edges before the main shingles. They provide a straight edge for the first row of shingles and help prevent wind uplift and water infiltration at the roof’s edge.
4. Cements & Sealants
Roofing cement and sealants are used to secure flashing, seal joints, and reinforce areas around chimneys, vents, and skylights. They provide extra protection against leaks.
5. Tamko Shingle Options
This is where the homeowner selects the type, color, and style of Tamko shingles they want. These shingles are the primary outer layer that protects the roof and enhances curb appeal.
6. Ventilation
Proper roof ventilation (such as ridge vents, soffit vents, or attic fans) is installed to allow air to flow through the attic. This helps regulate temperature, prevent moisture buildup, and extend the life of the roof.
7. Hip & Ridge Shingles
These are specially designed shingles placed on the hips (angled external corners) and ridges (top horizontal peak) of the roof. They complete the look and add an extra layer of protection at these vulnerable points.
