Impact-Resistant Roofing

What This Service Involves

Windstorms rolling off the Sound routinely send fir and cedar branches onto Northwest roofs, and Class 4 impact-rated products hold up where standard shingles crack. These reinforced materials resist punctures from limbs and debris and shrug off the sporadic hail that hits the region. Some insurers offer a premium discount for the added durability. On tree-lined Puget Sound lots, the toughness pays off through every stormy winter.
