Why Choose Impact Resistant Shingles?

If you service homeowners who live in areas prone to hail or other rough weather, then you may want to consider recommending impact-resistant shingles. The shingles are manufactured and tested extensively to help the roof withstand the extreme forces from Mother Nature.

Now, new Glenwood^® Shingles join Grand Sequoia^® ArmorShield™ and Timberline® ArmorShield™ II Roofing Shingles to offer impact resistance for many budgets and styles.

These three shingle options offer an excellent combination of protection, beauty, and potential insurance savings* for the home.

• Potential insurance savings*
• Excellent wind performance
