Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Synthetic underlayment like Deck Defense is a common choice over felt because it is lighter to carry and more tear-resistant during install. Unroll it horizontally starting at the eave with proper course overlap, and check the manufacturer's fastening pattern for your exposure. Confirm local code requirements for ice barrier at eaves; Deck Defense may need to be paired with a self-adhered ice and water membrane in those areas.
Synthetic underlayment can be slippery, especially when wet or dusty; wear appropriate footwear and fall protection while installing.
Add Owens Corning Deck Defense 10-square synthetic underlayment rolls to your shingle job.
