The project story
The roof system begins below the shingles
Shingles are the visible layer, but they rely on a properly prepared deck and compatible underlayment below. The installation photos show GAF FeltBuster covering the roof area before the remaining shingle courses are completed.
Synthetic underlayment adds a consistent secondary layer
FeltBuster is designed to lie flatter and resist tearing during installation compared with traditional asphalt felt. Its role is to support the roof covering and provide temporary and secondary protection as the full assembly comes together.
Architectural shingles complete the Kelowna roofline
The finished shingles add depth and definition while protecting the home from sun, wind, rain, and seasonal snow. Straight courses and clean transitions help the completed surface perform and present well from the street.

Project questions
What homeowners ask about this work
What is GAF FeltBuster?
GAF FeltBuster is a synthetic roofing underlayment installed over the roof deck and beneath asphalt shingles. It is one component of the complete roof system, not the finished exterior roof covering.
Is synthetic underlayment better than traditional felt?
Synthetic products are generally lighter, more tear-resistant, and more stable underfoot than traditional felt. The right product still depends on the selected roof system, manufacturer requirements, roof design, and installation plan.
Does Blue Jay Roofing install asphalt shingles in Kelowna?
Yes. Blue Jay Roofing installs architectural asphalt shingle systems throughout Kelowna and the Central Okanagan, including underlayment, flashing, ventilation, and related roof details.
