danger as falling.
Cool weather is easier on shingles
Roofing shingles are primarily made of asphalt. The surface is embedded
with small ceramic granules to help make them waterproof, and to protect them
from breaking down under ultra violet light from the sun. When contractors are
installing shingles in the heat, their walking on the newly installed shingles shakes
some of these granules easier because the asphalt expands. Installing a roof in
the cooler weather actually can reduce the immediate wear on your new roof.
