Shingles Designed for Durability – TAMKO
When specifying a complete roofing system, underlayment selection is as critical as the choice of shingles. TAMKO Shingles paired with a high-performance synthetic underlayment such as StormFighter Flex delivers a durable, weather-resistant solution designed to protect both the roof deck and the building interior throughout installation and long-term service.
StormFighter Flex is engineered to complement asphalt shingle applications by providing a robust secondary barrier against wind-driven rain, ice damming, and incidental moisture. Its advanced polymer construction offers improved tensile strength and tear resistance compared with traditional felt, reducing the risk of damage during handling and installation. The product’s slip-resistant surface and dimensional stability facilitate safer, faster installation for professional roofers, which helps maintain project schedules and minimizes exposure of the roof deck before shingle application.
Compatibility with TAMKO Shingles is a practical advantage for contractors and specifiers seeking a cohesive roofing system. When combined, the underlayment and the finished roofing material work together to enhance water-shedding performance and long-term roof integrity. Furthermore, StormFighter Flex is designed to perform across a wide range of temperatures, maintaining flexibility in cold conditions and dimensional stability in heat, which supports reliable shingle adhesion and fastening.
From a risk-management perspective, selecting a synthetic underlayment can reduce the likelihood of short-term weather-related damage during construction and provide a durable secondary layer should primary roofing membranes become compromised. For architects, contractors, and homeowners prioritizing longevity and performance, pairing TAMKO Shingles with StormFighter Flex underlayment represents a sensible specification choice that balances installation efficiency with enhanced protection.
