Causes of a Wavy Roof

What causes a Wavy Roof?
Causes of a wavy roof:
1. The felt paper used on the decking was potentially wet or bubbly when laid down. Thankfully
this is something that can be fixed with just a little time and heat. Typically after a few warm
summer weeks, the shingles will lay flat and you will no longer notice the wavy look.
2. First layer of shingles were wavy and the roofer laid directly over the existing layer. This is a
bad move, a roofing company should not lay new roofing shingles over shingles that are wavy.
A new roof will be required, after stripping both layers of shingles, to achieve a quality flat look.
3. Damaged decking could also cause a wavy look to shingles. Inspect the plywood from the
attic and look for cracks, sagging, or rotting. If any of this is found, be sure to have a roofer
replace any plywood, with the required thickness of board that is code for where you live.
4. Quality of the roofing work in general can also cause a roof to look wavy. Potentially it could
be caused if the shingles were not properly aligned or not nailed fully. Ultimately there is no
single answer for why a roof may look wavy, but could be a combination of factors.
