Shingle Roofs
We Use architectural shingles. Architectural shingles, also known as dimensional or laminated shingles, are a premium type of asphalt roofing material made by bonding multiple layers of asphalt-coated fiberglass together. This construction creates a thicker, textured profile with added depth and contour, mimicking the natural appearance of materials like cedar shakes or slate—unlike flat, uniform 3-tab shingles. Their key benefits include superior durability and longevity (often lasting 30–50 years), enhanced resistance to wind (up to 110+ mph), better impact protection against hail, improved weather resistance, and significantly greater curb appeal that boosts a home’s overall aesthetic and resale value—all at a reasonable cost compared to genuine wood or stone alternatives.
Malarkey Vista and Legacy Shingles
These are premium architectural shingles from Malarkey Roofing Products, both engineered with innovative NEX® Polymer Modified (Rubberized) Asphalt technology for superior durability, flexibility, granule adhesion, and all-weather resilience.
Vista® Shingles are Malarkey’s most popular architectural option, featuring a laminated design that adds dimension and curb appeal. They deliver excellent performance with a Class 4 hail impact rating (the highest available), smog-reducing granules that help clean the air of emission pollutants, enhanced wind resistance (up to 130 mph in many cases), and strong sustainability through upcycled rubber and plastic. Available in standard and Cool versions for better solar reflectivity, Vista is ideal for homeowners seeking reliable, high-value protection with great looks and eco-friendly benefits.
Legacy® Shingles (including Legacy® Scotchgard™ variants) represent Malarkey’s highest-performing architectural line. Slightly thicker than Vista for added strength and tear resistance, they also carry a Class 4 impact rating, feature 3M™ smog-reducing granules, and often include Scotchgard™ Protector for long-lasting defense against algae streaks. With superior adhesive bonds, extreme weather protection, and a pronounced, high-profile look, Legacy is built for the toughest conditions—like hail-prone or high-wind areas—offering maximum longevity and peace of mind.
Both lines emphasize quality craftsmanship, environmental responsibility, and warranties that stand behind their performance, making them excellent choices for durable, attractive roofing.
CertainTeed
CertainTeed Landmark, Landmark Pro, and Belmont Shingles are premium architectural asphalt shingles from CertainTeed, each offering dimensional appeal, strong weather resistance, and reliable performance with features like StreakFighter® algae resistance (to prevent unsightly black streaks), Class A fire resistance, and solid warranties.
Landmark Shingles are CertainTeed’s popular baseline architectural option, featuring a dual-layer laminated design that creates a textured, wood-shake-like look with excellent curb appeal. Key benefits include durable fiberglass construction for long-term protection, easy installation with NailTrak® technology, 110 mph wind resistance (upgradable), and a 25-year StreakFighter® algae warranty. They provide great value, reliable all-weather performance, and a lifetime limited transferable warranty—making them an ideal choice for homeowners seeking proven quality at an accessible price point.
Landmark Pro Shingles build on the Landmark foundation as a premium upgrade, with thicker, heavier construction (often around 20-30% more material) for enhanced durability and tear resistance. Benefits include richer, more vibrant Max Def colors for deeper contrast and fade resistance, superior adhesive bonding (like QuadraBond), a longer 30-year StreakFighter® algae warranty, and UL 2218 Class 3 impact resistance in many configurations. They deliver bolder aesthetics, better longevity in tough conditions, and added peace of mind—perfect for those wanting elevated performance without jumping to luxury tiers.
Color Options Landmark Pro
Belmont Shingles stand out as a luxury slate-look option, with large-format tabs (18″ x 36″) and multi-positioned layering that creates authentic depth, bold shadow lines, and a sophisticated quarried-slate appearance. Benefits include superior curb appeal for steep roofs, dynamic color blends in classic hues, high wind and fire resistance, and a 30-year StreakFighter® warranty. Many versions offer Class 4 impact resistance (the highest rating) for exceptional hail protection, all while being lighter and easier to install than real slate—no deck reinforcements needed. They’re ideal for homeowners prioritizing elegant, timeless style with top-tier durability.
