the (roof) underlayment
Explanation:
This is what I do when I lay a roof: first there is an undelayment. In the USA, this is some kind of a felt paper or some rubber membrane. Shingles go next, so it stands to reason that we are talking about underlayment.

Hopefully, this term means the same to nonPolish audiences, hence my low level of certainty.
