Choosing the Shingle and the System
Choose the shingle and the assembly together. Appearance, impact rating and price matter, while fastening, underlayment, flashing and ventilation make the selected material work on the actual roof.
A replacement is a useful time to compare architectural asphalt, other shingle profiles and suitable material changes. The options should be explained against the building’s slope, details and applicable property requirements.
Asphalt Shingle Types
Different profiles offer different appearances and product specifications.
Three-tab
A flatter repeating pattern. Availability and suitability depend on the selected product and roof.
Architectural
A layered dimensional profile, with product-specific weight, ratings and instructions.
Premium profiles
Larger or more shaped shingles can offer a different appearance and require their own installation details. Compare the complete system and budget.
Impact Ratings and Oklahoma Hail
An impact rating describes performance in a defined laboratory test. It is a useful comparison point, but it does not mean the roof is hail-proof or that storm damage will be covered under a policy.
Ask about the specific rated product and the system it needs. An insurer may have its own eligibility or documentation rules for any material-related credit; do not count a discount before it is confirmed.
Examine exposed wood during removal and repair unsuitable substrate.

Coordinate underlayment, edges, starter, valleys and flashing with the product.

Finish covering and ventilation
Follow fastening, exposure, caps and ventilation details appropriate to the assembly.
Roof Material Changes in Del City
A material change needs more than selecting a color.
Actual property requirements
Del City’s published zoning includes a district with specific material restrictions. Verify the parcel’s applicable requirements rather than extending that rule to every neighborhood.
Different assemblies
Metal, tile or another covering can change weight, attachment, slope and flashing requirements. The building and system must suit the choice.
