Not all asphalt shingles are designed to create the same look.

Different shingle products use different cuts, tab shapes, profiles, and patterns. Some create a more uniform appearance, while others add more texture, depth, and shadow across the roof.

These visual differences can help homeowners match the roof to the style of the home, but appearance is only one part of choosing a roofing product. Proper installation, fastening, flashing, underlayment, and the complete asphalt roofing system also affect long-term performance.

Considering a new asphalt roof? Marks Roofing can help you compare suitable shingle options for your home.

Fall rain can expose roof problems that were easy to miss during the drier months.

Before Metro Vancouver’s wetter season sets in, it is worth checking the parts of an asphalt roofing system that manage water and weather exposure:

• Damaged, lifted, or missing asphalt shingles
• Flashing around chimneys and roof penetrations
• Roof valleys where water is concentrated
• Gutters and downspouts blocked by leaves or debris
• Roof edges and other areas showing visible wear

A roof inspection before prolonged fall rain can help identify areas that may need maintenance or repair before they become more disruptive.

What protects an asphalt roof before the shingles go on?

This project shows synthetic roof underlayment installed over the prepared roof deck. It adds a secondary layer of moisture protection beneath the shingles and helps support drainage around chimneys, valleys, roof penetrations, and other critical transitions.

These layers are hidden once the roof is finished, but proper preparation is especially important in Metro Vancouver’s frequent rain and coastal moisture.

A major roof update for a West Vancouver home on Cranley Drive.

Nicholas’s 2,500 sq. ft. roof required more than new shingles. Our team removed the existing roofing, installed new 3/8-inch plywood roof sheathing, and completed the system with CertainTeed Landmark AR architectural asphalt shingles.

The result is a refreshed exterior and a properly prepared asphalt roofing system suited to West Vancouver’s frequent rain, coastal moisture, and changing weather conditions.
