Project Coordinated by Customer Service TeamLemont, IL Malarkey Vista Roof Transformation The Project Overview
The Project Overview
Stan’s Roofing & Siding recently returned to a loyal customer in Lemont, IL to perform a full exterior upgrade. What started as a simple roof repair evolved into a complete high-performance roof replacement to ensure long-term protection for this local home.
What Roofing Materials Were Selected for This Lemont Home?
For this project, the homeowner chose to upgrade to Malarkey Vista® AR (Algae Resistant) shingles. These are not your average asphalt shingles; they are engineered with polymer-modified asphalt for superior durability.
Shingle Type: Malarkey Vista® Performance Shingles.
Color Selection: Natural Wood, which provides a rugged, cedar-like aesthetic that complements the Lemont landscape.
Project Scope: Full tear-off and replacement following a previous repair assessment.
Why Are Malarkey Vista Shingles Best for Lemont, Illinois Winters?
Homeowners in the Lemont and greater Chicago area often ask: "What is the most durable shingle for hail and wind?" Malarkey Vista shingles are a top answer because:
Impact Resistance: They offer a Class 3 or 4 impact rating, which can often lead to lower insurance premiums for homeowners.
Freeze-Thaw Flexibility: The rubberized asphalt allows the shingles to stay flexible in extreme Lemont winters, preventing the cracking common in standard shingles.
Sustainable Technology: These shingles incorporate upcycled rubber and plastics, making them an eco-friendly choice for the community.
The Result: From Repair to Long-Term Reliability
While we originally helped this homeowner with a minor repair, the decision to invest in a full Malarkey replacement in Natural Wood has transformed the home's curb appeal and significantly increased its resale value and storm resilience.
