Fix Buckled Roof Sheathing
WITHOUT TEARING IT OUT
If you’ve been roofing long enough, you’ve seen it
Homes built in the 70s, 80s, 90s, and early 2000s used 4x8 plywood roof sheathing. It was good material—but decades later, many decks have started to fail between the trusses.
Plywood seams bridged or buckled
Soft spots you can feel underfoot
Sagging panels that telegraph through shingles
Leaks caused by movement, not bad roofing
The problem isn’t always the roof system.
It’s the deck.
The Industry Fix That Never Worked for Remodels
New construction solved this years ago
with H-clips.
But once the house is built?
✔ You can’t easily retrofit H-clips
✔ Attic bracing takes hours and project costs increase
✔ Changing decent plywood because of one bad seam is unproductive
Until now, there’s been no clean solution.
Buckle Down
is Built for Roofing Contractors
Buckle Down creates a new structural support between compromised plywood seams, restoring strength without full tear-off.
✔ Works on bridged, buckled, or sagged plywood
✔ Installs from the top side
✔ No crawling attics
✔ No unnecessary deck replacement
This is a labor saver, not a science project.
What It Means for Your Crew
✔ Fewer labor hours
✔ Faster tear-offs
✔ Cleaner deck prep
✔ Stronger finished roof
✔ Less liability from hidden deck movement
