Class 4 Impact-Resistant Shingles in Omaha, NE

Maximum Hail Defense Engineered to Lower Your Annual Homeowners Insurance Premiums.

If you own a home in Omaha, Elkhorn, or Gretna, you already know that severe hailstorms are not a question of if, but when. Repeatedly replacing standard asphalt shingles after every summer storm season is frustrating and expensive. Upgrading to Class 4 impact-resistant shingles provides the ultimate defense against hail strikes while saving you significant money every single year.

Class 4 shingles represent the pinnacle of asphalt shingle engineering. Manufactured with SBS (Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene) polymer-modified rubberized asphalt, these shingles absorb and disperse the kinetic energy of heavy hail strikes without cracking or shedding their protective granules. Best of all, major Nebraska insurance carriers recognize their superior performance and reward homeowners with annual premium discounts of up to 20% to 25%.

The Science of the UL 2218 Class 4 Impact Standard

To achieve an official Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 2218 Class 4 rating, shingles must pass a grueling structural impact test:

The Steel Ball Drop Test

A 2-inch solid steel ball is dropped from a height of 20 feet twice onto the exact same spot on the shingle sample.

Zero Fracture Requirement

To qualify for Class 4 certification, the shingle must show zero tearing, cracking, or rupture on both its front surface and its underlying fiberglass mat backing.

Hail Resilience in the Field

While standard architectural shingles fracture and lose granules when struck by 1-inch to 1.25-inch hail, Class 4 SBS-modified shingles successfully withstand baseball-sized hail impacts without losing their watertight seal.
