Moisture remains one of the biggest threats to roof longevity — especially in humid regions like Kentucky. In 2026, roofing systems focus heavily on moisture intelligence.
New moisture-control innovations
- Synthetic waterproof membranes with higher permeability control
- Condensation-resistant attic designs
- Moisture-channeling underlayments
- Improved flashing and seam systems
These upgrades prevent:
- mold growth
- wood rot
- insulation failure
- hidden structural damage
Why this matters in Owensboro
