I have a choice between two Certainteed underlayments: Roofer Select (included), or Diamond Deck synthetic for $600 more.
I like the sound of the Diamond Deck - less chance of buckling, and if a shingle blows off in a bad storm (which we sometimes get), it protects the wood. I saw a piece of a similar product from another roofer, and you could not tear it. Also, it weighs less than 1/2 of the felt.
Also, not sure if the light color of the Diamond Deck helps reduce heat gain installed under a Moire Black shingle!
Opinions please!
Thanks,
Al
