Texas homeowners are no strangers to hailstorms and high winds—and insurance companies know it. That’s why many providers offer discounts for upgrading to impact-resistant roofing materials like Class 3 or Class 4 shingles.
But what’s the difference?
🔹 Class 3 vs. Class 4 Shingles
Class 3 Shingles: Withstand steel ball impacts at 1.75”
Class 4 Shingles: Withstand steel ball impacts at 2” — the highest level of impact resistance
Class 4 shingles are engineered to handle hail and debris impact without cracking or splitting. They’re tougher, last longer, and often qualify for insurance premium reductions.
💡 Insurance Companies Love Class 4 Shingles
Some Texas insurance providers offer up to 20% off your premium when you install a Class 4 roof. The reason? It lowers their risk—and yours.
🏠 Should You Upgrade?
If your roof is due for replacement (or you’re filing a claim), it may cost only a little more to upgrade—but it could save you thousands long term.
