Flex to extend the season

Flex to extend the season

Don’t let cold weather cut your business short. When looking for some of the best shingles to use on your next project, trust TAMKO® to help you get the job done.

Cold temperatures and unpredictable weather can cut roofing seasons short, limiting opportunities to take on more projects and negatively affecting your revenue. But what if there were a way to extend your work season while ensuring homeowners receive some of the best shingles with superior protection against the elements?  StormFighter FLEX™ shingles from TAMKO®  are built different – they are designed with better asphalt, better polymer and better additive for better performance all year long.

Enhanced polymer technology for cold weather performance

StormFighter FLEX shingles are engineered to handle the toughest weather conditions. Powered by TAMKO’s proprietary ForceFX™ polymer technology, these shingles are designed for superior flexibility, maximizing cold weather performance. Unlike traditional shingles that become brittle in the cold, StormFighter FLEX can be installed in temperatures as low as 25° F without breaking or cracking – the lowest install temperature per manufacturer specifications. Most asphalt shingles should not be installed below 40° F – in these conditions, the sealant may not activate properly – but with TAMKO’s polymer and advanced sealant technology, installation remains easy despite the cold. That means you can extend your work season into colder months, keeping your crews busy and projects on track.

These shingles not only extend your season, but they also extend your workday. The advanced Fusion™ Sealants quickly bond, providing a secure hold that withstands up to 160 mile per hour winds when paired with TAMKO Starter. Additionally, their reinforced AnchorLock™ Layer nail zone ensures strong, reliable installations.

Installation made easy

Another benefit? These shingles are designed for ease of installation. Their flexibility makes them more forgiving to work with, even in colder temperatures, and with the AnchorLock™ Layer nail zone reinforcement, you’ll provide your customer a strong, reliable and efficient installation that allows you to tackle more jobs in a day. They also carry UL 2218 Class 3 or 4 impact ratings, providing excellent resistance to hail and debris while allowing your crews to move confidently across the roof without concern for foot traffic damage during installation.

Contractors who have installed StormFighter FLEX have expressed their trust in these shingles, with one TAMKO Certified Contractor saying, “I would put this product on my mother’s house, that’s how confident I am in this product.”

Gain an Edge

Be a contractor of choice when you join the TAMKO Edge® Contractor Program and stand out from your competition with the tools, training and technology you need to succeed. From enhanced limited system warranties and tech stack tools to specialized training and dedicated contractor support, you can sharpen your installation techniques, refine your sales strategy and grow your business. Be the best contractor you can be when you use better tools for better results.

Provide your customers with award-winning products and be recognized as a TAMKO pro. When you offer StormFighter FLEX shingles, you are offering the best – not only do they stand behind their products, but you will too.  

With their industry-leading low-temperature installation capability, impact resistance and ease of installation, TAMKO’s StormFIghter FLEX shingles are built different – better asphalt, better polymer, better additive, better performance.
