Class 3 and Class 4 Roofing Shingles: Lowering Your Insurance Premiums and Saving Money

It’s clear to see that modernization is all around us. From smartphones to smart homes, advancements in technology have revolutionized the way the world works. Even when it comes to home improvement projects like roof replacements, it often goes unnoticed. While a roof’s primary purpose is to protect your home, it also can be a smart investment that saves you money.

Introducing Class 3 and Class 4 shingles. Produced by a variety of brands, Class 3 and 4 shingles offer durability and impact resistance, potentially lowering insurance premiums (often by hundreds of dollars per year). If you’re getting a new roof, now is the time to learn about them and see if switching will be a good investment for you.

Shingles are rated on a scale of Class 1 to Class 4, with Class 4 being the best for impact resistance. The upper range, Class 3 and Class 4 shingles are stronger and more durable. They’re made with advanced materials and techniques, making them highly resistant to damage and they usually come with longer warranties, providing peace of mind for the years to come.
Having a roof with a Class 3 or Class 4 rating can reduce insurance costs because insurance companies often offer rebates or discounts to homeowners with highly rated shingles. These shingles’ impact strength minimizes damage from hailstorms and high winds, making homes less risky to insurers.
