Pro-Start™ Eave/Rake Starter Strip Shingles

Help Prevent Shingle Blow-Off And Eliminate Waste With An Eave/Rake Starter Strip

Pre-Cut Eave/Rake Starter Strips Are One Of The Most Overlooked Parts Of A Roofing System!

That’s because it’s easy for a contractor to use a cut-up shingle as the “starter” course on your roof. Unfortunately, cut-up shingles may not have properly-positioned adhesive to ensure adequate wind resistance.

Using a pre-cut eave/rake starter strip will:

Provide a cost-effective alternative to using cut-up shingles as your starter course
Include a high-quality, properly-positioned adhesive that will tightly lock your shingles in place to
help prevent blow-off
Be easy to use and install, with no cutting on the roof

Pro-Start™ eave/rake starter strip is a key part of the GAF Smart Choice ® Roof System Solution.

Weather Watch Leak Barrier
A Quality Leak Barrier Will:

Create a 100% watertight seal that keeps water out at the most vulnerable areas of your roof (at the eaves and rakes, in valleys, around chimneys, etc.).

Weather Watch ®, a quality leak barrier, will:

Protect your home by preventing costly repairs due to wall or ceiling staining
Help prevent leaks due to water damming in your gutters,
wind-driven rain, and, in the North, damaging ice dams
