Residential Roofing

What Makes a Roof “Impact-Resistant”?

Impact-resistant shingles are tested under UL 2218 standards, where steel balls are dropped from various heights to simulate hail. Shingles that earn the Class 4 rating withstand the highest level of impact without cracking.

This means your roof is better protected from:

1–2 Inch Hail Impacts

High Winds up to 130 mph (Brand-Dependent)

Flying Debris

Granule Loss and UV Breakdown

Cracking and Premature Aging

In Austin and Central Texas—where hailstorms are frequent—upgrading to Class 4 shingles can save thousands in long-term roof repairs and replacements.

Benefits of Impact-Resistant Roofing in Austin

 

Superior Hail Protection

Texas ranks among the top states for hail claims. Class 4 shingles greatly reduce the risk of shingle fractures after severe hail.

Longer Roof Lifespan

Impact-resistant shingles use thicker mats, polymer-modified asphalt, or rubberized materials that resist cracking and brittleness.

Better Wind Resistance

Most impact-resistant systems include reinforced nailing zones and adhesive strips for improved wind uplift protection.

Lower Homeowners’ Insurance Premiums

Many Texas insurance providers offer discounts of up to 20–35% for qualifying Class 4 roofs. Check with your insurer for exact savings.

Energy Efficiency Options

Cool-roof Class 4 shingles can reduce attic temperatures and lower AC demand during Austin’s 100°F+ summers.
