Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Use Arctic Seal as the leak barrier at eaves and valleys where ice damming is a concern, and extend it up walls and around penetrations for continuous protection. Apply to a clean, dry deck within the manufacturer's temperature range and roll the laps firmly for a watertight bond. Pair with matching Malarkey shingles and starter for a full-system installation.
Self-adhering membranes are slippery, especially on slopes or when wet; wear proper fall protection and roof-appropriate footwear during installation.
Order the Malarkey Arctic Seal self-adhering SBS underlayment roll for leak protection at your roof's most vulnerable areas.
