What is important is the ability of the deck to quickly shed water and resist blown rain and damming. The slope requirements and installation method for rubber shingles would be similar if not the same as asphalt. One other option I've seen done in the past is glued down EPDM as the underlayment with shingles nailed over it. In theory the rubber is supposed to seal around the nail holes, but this seems like overkill compared to double lapped 30# felt. | |
