For all of those who suffer from the giant ice growth at the eaves in the winter.
Ice and Water Shield
The onset of the ice & water shield usage in the northeast after the great ice storms of the early 90's has brought with it a mentality that has made for the profession a strange enigma. The experience that is forever embedded on the minds of those that dwelled under the massive influx of water resulting from ice dams has caused the mandate of ice and water shield usage in the installation of new roofing systems. This is much like a doctor that treats the symptom, rather than offering a cure.

The enigma comes in with the transient nature of the industry and the employment of techniques that are improper. Roofing flashings are usually laborious to replace properly and almost always neglected. With a strong underlayment, an actual flashing leak can be disguised for several years. The leak, while unnoticed by the building owner, is poised to present a major problem down the road. The mentality that ice & water shield is the cure-all is just wrong. The only time the underlayment should be wet is in the event of catastrophic weather conditions.
