I was on my way to work and saw a "roofing crew" atop a house and
noticed that they had Tyvek spread out all over the roof. Â*They also
had bundles of shingles waiting.
I ASSUME they were going to put the shingles over the Tyvek.
Of course, I grew up with the 15/30 pound felt option.
Anyone know if this is the future. I have a shed I will probably have
to roof in a few years....
Some shingles are meant to be put up without felt....voids the
warranty if you use it. Tyvek may have been used instead of a tarp.

Please supply us with a reference for ANY shingle manufacturer that
voids the warranty if the shingle is applied over roofing felt.
