Why Choose Class 4 Hail Resistant Shingles?
Living in Calgary, you may be very familiar with how bad hail can get in the area, and you’re going to want to make sure that your home is properly protected against this extreme weather condition.
This usually means looking into roofing materials like hail resistant shingles to guarantee that your roof is hail proof.
To help make sure that your home and roof is hail proof, here is a rundown on what you need to know about hail resistant roof shingles, and why you should consider investing in these for an impact resistant roof.
Class 4 Shingles: Your Roof’s Knight in Shining Armor
Hail resistant shingles are shingles that have received the Class 4 impact resistance rating classification. While there are plenty of factors to look at that contribute to your home and your roof being hail proof, this is the most universal indicator.
Roof shingles are rated from classes 1 to 4, with a Class 4 roof being the highest rating that you can get. To determine if you have a roof that is built with Class 4 hail resistant shingles, then you should consult your roofing contractor.
