Get a written quoteClass 4 shingle still pays for itself on the fringe because carriers price by county, not by how often your particular street gets hit. Wind is the co-equal peril here; South Texas squall lines lift shingles as often as hail bruises them. Ventilation standards were looser then; adding ridge vent and clearing soffit intake during a replacement usually pays back in shingle life.
What it costs in Lithonia: the most affordable full-roof option; the step up to Class 4 impact-rated shingle is a modest premium that usually pays for itself in Texas through carrier discounts.
Georgia doesn't issue a roofing-specific license — most roofing falls under the state's Residential-Basic or General Contractor license once a job crosses the state's licensing threshold. We check that license, insurance, and standing with the state board before a roofer ever sees a lead.
How it works
Manufacturers say 25–30 years. In Florida and Texas sun, 18–22 is more realistic for standard architectural shingle. Ventilation and installation quality make up most of the difference.
Installation quality matters more than brand. Any of the major manufacturers' architectural lines are fine — ask what the crew installs most, because that's the one they'll do right.
