What you are looking at
A long roof tests how straight the shingle courses stay over a long run. We snap chalk lines across the deck before the shingles go down, so the courses hold a steady line from the first gable to the last.
The gable ends are where the roof meets the wind head on. The edge shingles there are set so wind cannot get under them and lift the row.
The deck and yard sit directly behind the house, so this is the side of the roof the family sees most from home.
