About This Product

WeatherLock Flex Self-Sealing Ice and Water Barrier provides excellent protection against water infiltration resulting from freeze/thaw cycles wind driven rains and normal water flow around eaves, valleys, vents, chimneys and skylights. Plus it can be applied over existing poly surface ice and water barriers so re-roofing is easy and less costly. For optimal protection, apply to entire roof deck on 2:12 to 4:12 pitch roofs. Ensure proper ventilation is met when applied over the entire roof deck.

Highlights

  • High performance-flexible and pliable poly surface
  • Aggressive self-adhesive helps prevents water migration
  • Slip-resistant surface for excellent traction and safe installation
  • Seals tight around nails
  • UV exposure up to 30 days
  • Weatherlock G does not replace the starter shingle strip. Owens Corning Starter Shingle Roll can be installed over Weatherlock Leak Barrier products.
  • WeatherLock Specialty Tile and Metal Self-Sealing Waterproofing Underlayment should be used with a metal roof.
  • Shop Owens Corning Total Protection Roofing System
  • Step 1: seal - Ice and water barrier and underlayment properly seals your roof and helps prevent rot and mold

    Can this be placed on top of synthetic underlayment before the addition of shingles?

    Answer This Question

    NO, this is meant to go UNDER the roofing underlayment! It is for the purpose of dealing with ice and protecting the 3' of roof edge BEFORE the roofing underlayment goes on. It is also "self-sticking" to the bare decking material.

      Hello Anthony, WeatherLock product should be installed directly to the wood deck, roofing underlayment should not be installed beneath the product. Thank you for your inquiry!

          How long can the product be exposed to the weather before shingles are applied? I will be doing a 700 sf roof solo so it will take some time

          Mine was exposed for 3-4 months with no signs of degrading. Seems to be working fine so far.

          Hello Joe, Owens Corning WeatherLock Flex should not be left exposed for more than 30 day. Prolonged exposure to wind, sun and weather will adversely affect this products installation and performance. Thank you for your inquiry!

            Yes it will. But I did not use the foam on my roof.

              Hello Kent, we do not have recommendations for installing WeatherLock Flex directly to Foamular. Thank you for your inquiry!

                        High quality product. Difficult installation.
                        Once the product is installed, it appears to be very high quality. My only issue is the difficulty of installation. The product sticks like mad, so be very careful to get it where you want it the first time. Unlike other ice and water barriers I have used, the backing material is one solid piece instead of two halves, which I do not like as well. Lastly, if the product sits on the roof in the sun for even a short period of time, the backing material becomes extremely difficult to get off.

                              Absolutely great stuff. I have it on the outside roof exposed to weather and sunlight and it is great going into the third winter . . . and I use it under carpet instead of vinyl and I can put it down cheaply.

                                Product is very good once down. Unfortunately product was difficult to lay by not being able to lay half at a time like other brands. and paper backing sometimes stuck to ice shield. I would choose a different brand next time only because of this.

                                recommended it to all my customers very easy to put down. I will definitely get it a five-star.
