What kind of roofing material on what kind of roof?


Dimensional shingles on a home's roof. Do you need more information?
If so, what?


I just had a new roof put on. I wanted dimensional shingles but the
roofer ruled them out because he said my roof did not have a steep
enough pitch which could result in water damage eventually. Apparently
water won't drain off the roof well enough with dimensional without a
steeper pitch. He said lots of companies will use dimensional if
customers ask for them even if their roofs lack the necessary pitch,
but he won't. So you may want to look into that.

This is a redo and we are replacing dimensional with dimensional.
After 20 years, I think I would have noted any problems like that (g).
BTW: Being replaces because of hail damage.

Thanks for the reply.
