Insurance Guidance

We walk you through the insurance process

Elevated Roofing is proud to offer Class 4 impact resistant shingles to homeowners throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Class 4 shingles are the highest rated shingles for wind and hail protection, and we don’t just carry them, we are certified GAF Class 4 shingles installers.

Class 4 shingles are premium roofing materials designed to reduce long-term repair cost. They’re tested to withstand the impact of 2-inch hail, a level of protection most shingles can’t offer. Among the best Class 4 shingles, for example, are the GAF Timberline® AS II shingles. They’re super-flexible and durable to improve resistance to impacts. While they cost more upfront than standard shingles, homeowners in our hail-prone region often save significantly over time because of fewer repairs and lower insurance costs.

If you’re in the DFW area, hailstorms can cause serious roof damage. Hail damage to roofs is one of the costliest roof problems you can face as a homeowner.

The storms keep getting more severe in our area every year, so if you’re in the market for a new roof, you might want to consider Class 4 roof shingles. We’d love to meet with you, give you a free roof inspection, and provide a free quote for a new roof with GAF Class 4 shingles. So, contact us today.

In the meantime, you can learn more about Class 4 shingles, Class 3 vs Class 4 shingles, Class 4 shingles insurance discounts, and how to get a quote for a new roof with GAF Class 4 shingles to keep your home protected, despite the Texas hailstorms.

What are Class 4 Shingles?

Independent raters determine a shingle’s class rating, not manufacturers. The classes of shingles range from Class 1 shingles (less resistant to impact) to Class 4 shingles (most resistant to impact).

Class 4 impact resistant shingles, including GAF Class 4 impact resistant shingles, can withstand the impact of a steel ball with a 2-inch diameter hitting them from 20 feet above. Because hail isn’t as hard as steel, testers use steel balls to simulate how large and strong hail can be. The goal is to see what size impact the shingle can withstand without cracking. In the case of a Class 4 shingle, that suggests a 2-inch hailstone dropped from the sky in a storm.

Class 4 roof shingles are the strongest shingles available, and they can stand up to even the toughest Texas hailstorms.

Class 3 vs Class 4 Shingles: Which Is Right for Your Home?

When it comes to protecting your home from severe Texas hailstorms, not all shingles are created equal. Homeowners often wonder which roofing option provides the best balance of durability, protection, and long-term value. Understanding the difference between Class 3 vs Class 4 shingles can help you make the right choice for your roof, your wallet, and your peace of mind.

Class 3 shingles are incredibly durable. They can resist impacts from most Texas hailstones. The only shingle rated more highly than Class 3 shingles are GAF Class 4 impact resistant shingles. Class 3 impact resistant shingles can withstand the impacts of hailstone up to 1 ¾ inches in diameter, whereas the Class 4 roof shingles can withstand the impacts of hailstones up to 2 inches in diameter.

Class 3 shingles can withstand most of our storms, but Class 4 roof shingles are recommended for areas that get frequent severe storms that can produce hail, and unfortunately, that describes the DFW area perfectly. We highly recommend GAF Class 4 shingles in our region.

Class 4 Shingles Insurance Discount

Class 4 roof shingles are so durable in the face of severe weather that many insurance companies offer large discounts for homes that feature these high-quality shingles. Between the less frequent repairs and the insurance discounts, many homeowners find that the superior shingles actually save a significant amount of money over the lifetime of the roof.

The Texas Department of Insurance explains the insurance premium credits that may be available, but keep in mind the actual discount depends on your insurance company.

GAF Class 4 Shingles

For homeowners who want the highest level of impact resistance available, GAF offers several Class 4 shingles engineered to handle severe hail and demanding North Texas weather.

Timberline® AS II shingles use an ArmorShield® II design with a reinforced fiberglass core and modified asphalt formulation that helps them absorb and disperse heavy impact. For a thicker, more dimensional look, the Grand Sequoia® AS line delivers a wood-shake aesthetic with built-in Class 4 performance. Both options are tested to meet UL 2218 Class 4 standards, the strongest impact rating available, making them a strong choice if you want maximum durability and the best chance of qualifying for an insurance discount for impact-resistant roofing.

These are some of the best class 4 shingles and provide enhanced protection while offering different visual styles to suit a wide range of homes.
