Asphalt Shingle Roofingin Arlington, TX
Most Arlington homes have shingles, and many have already had them replaced after hail. When yours are due, we help you choose between standard and impact-resistant shingles and install them to Arlington's re-roof code.
Details that decide how long your shingles last.
New underlayment, every time
Arlington requires underlayment to be replaced when shingles are. We would do it anyway.
Slope limits
No shingles under 2:12, and double underlayment from 2:12 to 4:12. Common on south Arlington additions.
Impact rating
Class 4 shingles resist hail better and may earn a Texas insurance discount.
Ventilation
Balanced attic venting keeps Arlington summer heat from aging shingles early.
Proper nailing
Correct nail placement keeps tabs sealed when storm gusts hit.
Flashing rebuilt
Flashing at walls, chimneys and vents rebuilt to the manufacturer's instructions.
Both are popular in Arlington.

How long do shingles last in Arlington?
Often around 15 to 25 years, depending on ventilation, color and hail. In Arlington, hail usually decides the roof's lifespan.
Are Class 4 shingles worth the extra cost?
If you have had hail claims, they often are. Ask your insurer about a discount and compare it to the price difference.
Can you shingle over my existing roof?
Arlington allows covering only one existing layer in limited cases. We recommend tearing off so the decking can be checked.
Do you handle the permit?
Yes. We file the City of Arlington permit online, post it at your house and schedule the final inspection.
What color works best?
Lighter colors absorb less heat. If you are in an HOA, start with their approved list.
