The Impact of STINGER EXO50 Underlayment on Roofing Labor Costs
Roofing contractors are always on the lookout for ways to increase efficiency and reduce costs without compromising quality. Labor costs can account for 30-50% of roofing expenses—and they can make or break your project. To maximize profit, consider your underlayment.
While traditional felt underlayments are generally cheaper, their bulkiness makes them difficult to handle, requiring labor-intensive, time-consuming installation. Add to that the possibility of weather-related delays and your profitability is in serious jeopardy. This has led to the rise of lightweight synthetic alternatives, which offer both superior performance and the potential for labor cost savings. However, not all synthetic underlayments are created equal.
Discover how STINGER EXO50 premium synthetic underlayment, with its rapid installation, exceptional durability, and water resistance, can revolutionize your roofing process and deliver significant labor cost savings to boost your bottom line.

- Faster Installation: EXO50's preprinted fastener pattern and overlap lines streamline the installation process and minimize errors. Accelerate installation further by using STINGER Collated Caps, a recommended best installation practice that provides superior hold, reduces fastener count, and minimizes blow-offs as well as providing the ultimate moisture protection.
- Lightweight Design: At 32 pounds per roll, EXO50 combines light weight with high performance for easy handling, even in challenging conditions.
- Enhanced Safety: The spun-bond non-woven walking surface and slip-resistant backing on EXO50 provides better traction, improving safety and efficiency.

It’s also resistant to UV rays for up to 6 months. This translates to long-lasting performance with a reduced risk of weather-related damage, callbacks, and costly re-work.
Additional Benefits of EXO50 Underlayment
Beyond labor cost savings, EXO50 offers superior protection for the roof deck against moisture penetration, preventing mold and mildew issues that can lead to expensive repairs and customer dissatisfaction. This high level of moisture protection helps maintain the integrity of the roof over time, reducing the likelihood of callbacks and additional repair costs.
