The roof deck under the starter course
When you don't have 3 layers as your starter course, water can work its way down onto the roof deck. Here you can see the staining exactly corresponding with the seams of the shakes.
THIS EXPLAINS ALL THAT PEELING PAINT ON THE SOFFITS AND FASCIA NOW, DOESN'T IT???? All the water that finds its way through the starter course of shingles gets dumped right into the soffits.
Unfortunately, it also means we need to replace the whole main roof sooner rather than later, as it is no doubt having the same problems. If we wait, our soffits will rot out, which will be even more costly to repair.
