Class 4 Impact-Resistant Shingles
Class 4 shingles carry the highest impact resistance rating under UL 2218 testing. They withstand a 2-inch steel ball dropped from 20 feet without cracking, and most homeowner insurance policies in Texas and Colorado offer premium discounts for Class 4 roofs. Available from CertainTeed, TAMKO, GAF, IKO, and Owens Corning.
Why Choose Class 4 Impact-Resistant Shingles?
Class 4 impact-resistant shingles are engineered for homeowners in hail-prone regions who demand the highest level of roof protection. Rated under UL 2218 Class 4 standards, these shingles withstand the toughest hail conditions while often qualifying for significant insurance premium discounts in Texas and Colorado.
Maximum Hail Protection
Class 4 shingles pass the UL 2218 test by withstanding a 2-inch steel ball dropped from 20 feet without cracking — the highest standard in the roofing industry.
Insurance Premium Discounts
Most insurance carriers in Texas and Colorado offer 5-35% premium discounts for Class 4 roofing systems, helping offset the investment over time.
SBS-Modified Flexibility
Many Class 4 options use SBS-modified asphalt that flexes under impact rather than shattering, maintaining protection across extreme temperature swings.
Proven Storm Performance
Field-tested through decades of real-world hailstorms across Hail Alley, Class 4 shingles consistently outperform lower-rated alternatives after severe weather.

Why Class 4 Shingles Outperform
Lower Long-Term Roof Costs
Fewer storm damage claims and insurance discounts mean Class 4 roofs often pay for themselves within a few years of installation.
Strongest Resale Value Signal
Homebuyers in hail-prone markets actively seek Class 4 roofs, making them a top differentiator when listing your property.
Peace of Mind After Every Storm
Instead of worrying about damage after every hailstorm, Class 4 homeowners know their roof was built to take the hit.
