Class 4 refers to the UL 2218 impact standard: the shingle resists cracking under a steel-ball impact test that approximates severe hail. In Krum, that matters twice. You get fewer storm-damaged roofs over the system’s life, and many Texas carriers discount wind/hail premiums for homes roofed with certified Class 4 products. Ask your carrier for their specific discount before you decide; we document the product certification for your policy file either way.
We install and service class 4 impact-resistant shingles across Krum and the surrounding DFW communities. Expect free written estimates, documented inspections, and honest guidance on whether this system actually fits your home and budget.
On the ground in Krum
Every city wears this system a little differently, and Krum is no exception. Housing this far out is less uniform than the inner suburbs. Age, pitch, and construction quality vary house to house, so the material fit does too. Asphalt fits that reality well: it replaces like-for-like without structural questions, and the Class 4 versions buy real hail resilience for a modest premium.
Permit-wise, this work in Krum runs through the city’s building department, and filing it is our job, not yours. North Texas sits in the country’s most active hail belt, and Class 4 shingles take bruises where standard laminates open up; the difference shows at the adjuster meeting. Because Denton, Lewisville, and Flower Mound share our dispatch routes, examples of this exact system nearby are easy to arrange. When we quote it, ask for nearby addresses. A real roof with weather on it is the honest brochure.
