Accordingly, what happens if it rains during roofing?
If it does rain, moisture can get between plies on a flat roof or between the felt and the shingles and shorten your roof's lifespan.
Also, can you roof over wet plywood? A: It is never a good idea to install a roof over wet plywood or any type of roof sheathing. Trapped water will boil when the sun heats the roof and the shingles will then have small pits where the steam finally escapes.
Also question is, can you put tar paper on a wet roof?
Do not shingle over wet or damp roof sheathing or damp felt paper. The trapped moisture cannot evaporate when the sun heats the shingle. Do not use caulking, roof tar or asphalt mixes to cover flashing materials.
How long does it take a roof to dry after rain?
If they are laying over, as they should NOT be, then you'd want the roof to dry out at least 24 hours so not to trap moisture between the shingle layers.
