Shingle Brands and Ratings
Quality Shingles for Central Texas Homes

Your roof is more than a layer of shingles – it’s a complete system designed to protect your home from heat, hail, wind, and moisture. That’s why Oakwood Roofing and Construction carefully selects roofing products from trusted manufacturers and considers the performance, appearance, and rating of each shingle before installation.


We regularly install shingles from Malarkey, CertainTeed, IKO, Owens Corning, Tamko, and GAF. These brands offer a variety of colors, styles, warranties, and impact-resistance ratings to meet the needs of different homes and budgets.


While the shingle is an important part of your roof, we also pay close attention to the underlayment, flashing, ventilation, starter materials, ridge caps, and other components that help the entire roofing system perform properly.

Shingle Brands We Install

Our most used shingle brands and product lines include:


  • Malarkey: Highlander, Class III; Vista, Class IV
  • CertainTeed: Landmark, Class III; ClimateFlex, Class IV
  • IKO: Cambridge, Class III; Dynasty, Class III; Nordic, Class IV
  • Owens Corning: Duration, Class III
  • Tamko: Titan, Class IV
  • GAF: Timberline HDZ, Class III


We have additional options available as well. Depending on your home, roof design, goals, and project requirements, our team can help you compare appropriate materials and select a shingle that fits your property.

 

Class III and Class IV ratings can be especially important for homeowners in Central Texas, where hailstorms are a regular concern. A higher impact-resistance rating may provide added protection, although no roofing material is completely hail proof. Proper installation and the use of compatible system components are equally important.

A Complete Roofing System

One way to reduce the upfront cost of a roof is to install a manufacturer’s shingles while using generic materials for the rest of the system. However, while the difference may not be visible once the roof is complete, it can become important if a manufacturer warranty claim is needed.

 

Manufacturers generally provide coverage for qualifying products, not unrelated generic materials. Because of this, our default approach is to use a complete manufacturer system whenever possible. This gives homeowners greater confidence that the products are compatible and that warranty requirements have been considered from the beginning.

 

Oakwood Roofing and Construction installs roofing products according to the manufacturer’s instructions and takes the entire roof into account.
