Roofing underlayment installed across a coastal development

Epilay

Synthetic Roofing Underlayment.

The protective layer beneath the finished roof — selected to match the structure, exposure, and roofing system on each project.

The Foundation

A critical layer beneath every roof.

Synthetic roofing underlayment installed on a complex roof

Protect your investment from the underlayment up. Epilay is a 100% synthetic roofing underlayment built from advanced engineering and unique features that make it our most recommended deck protection.

Exceptionally light-weight with superior tear strength — a 10-square roll at 7 MIL thickness weighs only 23 lbs — Epilay can water-tight your roof for up to 6 months, giving you a generous window between dry-in and the finished roofing system going on.

Tougher than felt. Faster to handle. Built to last between trades.

Why It Matters

Built to protect the deck before the finish goes on.

Synthetic Protection

Modern underlayments resist moisture, tearing and jobsite wear better than traditional felt on demanding projects.

High Tear Strength

Designed to handle foot traffic, wind exposure, and fastening without breaking down during installation.

UV Stability

Helps protect the roof deck if final roofing installation is phased or delayed during construction.

Walkable Surface

Textured surfaces improve installer footing and make work on the roof safer and more controlled.

Lightweight Coverage

Large rolls cover significant roof area efficiently, reducing handling time compared with heavier felt products.

Roof-System Compatibility

Suitable beneath metal, stone-coated, and other sloped roofing systems when matched to the project requirements.

System Options

Synthetic underlayment
