How to Choose the Right Roofing System for Missouri Homes—with Less Delay, Better Protection

Choosing a roof isn’t just about shingles. It’s about long-term durability, local climate resilience, and making smart decisions that protect your investment. For homeowners and builders in Franklin County, picking the right combination of shingles, underlayment, and sheathing can mean the difference between constant repairs and lasting peace of mind.

Step 1: Start with Proven Shingles

Missouri weather puts roofing materials to the test. Options like Timberline HDZ® and UHDZ™ shingles provide advanced wind resistance and a bold look that enhances curb appeal. These shingles are designed to last, giving homeowners both performance and style.

Step 2: Don’t Overlook Underlayment

The shingle system is only as strong as the layer beneath it. Hall Brothers Lumber supplies synthetic underlayment such as Epilay® ProtecTite®, which provides a water-resistant barrier to shield homes from moisture damage. It’s lighter, stronger, and more durable than traditional felt.

Step 3: Protect with Advanced Sheathing

A roof built to last needs structural reliability. That’s where Huberwood ZIP System Roof Sheathing comes in. With a built-in water-resistant barrier and taped seams, it simplifies installation while ensuring code compliance and long-term energy efficiency.

Step 4: Factor in Support and Delivery

Materials matter, but so does service. Hall Brothers Lumber offers delivery across Franklin County and beyond, plus expert guidance on installation, compliance, and product selection. That means projects run smoother with fewer costly delays.

Step 5: Think Long-Term ROI

By investing in quality shingles, underlayment, and sheathing now, you reduce maintenance and repair costs down the road. Builders and homeowners alike can count on Hall Brothers for solutions that combine performance with affordability.
