General Contractor Walt Tomala, president of TNT General Contractors, introduces Tyvek® Protec™ roofing underlayments and its excellent durability and quality. “As a high-performance builder and roofing contractor, we are constantly doing research to find what products are the right fit for certain projects,” said Tomala. “It really comes down to making sure our installers are comfortable on a roof and that we are dealing with a product that we know is going to come with a great warranty and a name that we can trust.”

He elaborates on how the product design allows comfort under foot. “I’m able to walk on this pitch without any issues, my feet feel comfortable, I don’t feel like I am going to slip at any point in time. It’s probably the optimal walkability that I’ve ever felt on a roof itself.”

Other features that Tomala likes about the product is how well it holds our chalk line and the tear resistance. Watch Tomala’s video here.
