Is Your Roof Warning You?

Your roof protects everything under it. If you notice any of these signs, it may be time for a repair or replacement—before small problems become expensive ones:

  • Roofing nails are exposed
  • Shingles have blown off or are curling
  • Hail or storm damage
  • Algae growth or dark streaks
  • Water stains on ceilings or walls
  • Rising energy bills from poor insulation
  • Your roof is 20+ years old
  • A sagging or uneven roofline

The Total Protection Roofing System

We don't just nail down shingles—we install a complete Owens Corning system engineered to work together, from the deck up.

Seal

A self-adhered ice & water barrier and synthetic underlayment create a waterproof shield against ice dams and wind-driven rain.

Defend

Starter shingles, laminate shingles, and hip & ridge shingles work together to defend your home against the elements.

Breathe

Balanced intake and exhaust ventilation regulates attic temperature and helps prevent moisture buildup.

Class 3 & Class 4 Impact-Resistant Shingles

Iowa hail is hard on roofs. Impact-resistant shingles are rated under UL 2218, which measures how well a shingle stands up to impact—important protection for eastern Iowa storms.

Class 4 — Top Rating

The highest UL 2218 rating: a 2-inch steel ball dropped from 20 feet won't crack the shingle. The best protection against hail.

Class 3

A strong impact rating (tested with a 1.75-inch steel ball)—solid protection, one step below Class 4.

Possible Insurance Discount

Many insurers offer a premium discount for Class 4 impact-resistant roofs. Check with your provider—we'll help with the documentation.

We install Owens Corning® Duration® STORM® Class 4 impact-resistant shingles, with WeatherGuard® and SureNail® Technology. Ask us whether impact-resistant shingles are right for your home.

What Our Roofing Customers Say

“Jaymeson was great to work with. I was referred to him by a friend to replace my roof shingles. He communicated clearly and provided useful before and after pictures. I trust him and his crew to be fair and complete any project the right way.”

★★★★★— Matt Angell

“Summit Roofing was punctual, responsive, and a fair price. Jaymeson was easy to communicate with and did a high quality job putting new shingles on our roof, cleaning our gutters, and replacing a gutter. If you're in the Iowa City area, I'd recommend Summit for the job.”
