Class 4 shingles use a reinforced mat and polymer-modified asphalt that stops granule loss after repeated hail strikes. In Minneapolis stock built before 1990 you often see 3-tab shingles that crack along the tabs once ice dams form along the eaves. We pull old layers, check for rotted decking from summer humidity, and install CertainTeed Landmark or GAF Timberline HDZ with Class 4 rating. Hennepin requires a permit for any tear-off over 6 squares; we pull it same day so the job stays on schedule.
Winter snow load pushes 40–60 psf on flat pitches in neighborhoods like Northeast and Camden. Class 4 shingles add stiffness that keeps the surface from sagging between rafters. Cheap crews skip the starter strip with sealant and the first row lifts in March winds off the Mississippi Riverfront. We run the starter full length and set every nail at the target line so the edge stays tight when temperatures swing 60 degrees in a day.
Target Field and Uptown jobs often involve tight alley access and shared walls. We stage material on the street with city permits and use 30-foot conveyors to limit foot traffic on the roof. Summer heat softens standard shingles; Class 4 holds granule adhesion better when roof surface hits 160 degrees. After install we walk the seams with a magnet to catch missed nails before we leave the block.
Call 612-555-0199 for 24/7 hail or wind damage response. We show up same day, document with photos for insurance, and schedule the Class 4 install within 48 hours once the adjuster signs off.
