The project
The Fairview home has a large, steep, multi-plane roof where workmanship and sequencing matter. Element coordinated the full roofing system and related exterior details rather than treating the shingles as a stand-alone surface.
A matched roofing system
The project used CertainTeed Landmark ClimateFlex Class 4 shingles in Heather Blend with RoofRunner underlayment, SwiftStart starter, StormGuard ice-and-water protection, and matched ridge components. Product selections are based on the written scope for each home.
Details beyond the field shingles
Work included ridge ventilation, counterflashing, gutter and downspout coordination, and finish work at shutters and louvers. Those transitions and penetrations are where careful planning protects both performance and appearance.
Documented from above
Element photographed the project before, during, and after installation. Drone footage records the scale of the roof, exposed decking, dry-in, active installation, and the completed system—details homeowners rarely get to see.
Why Class 4?
Class 4 describes the shingle’s impact-resistance rating under the applicable test standard. It can be a practical option for North Texas weather, but the right system still depends on the home, budget, appearance goals, and insurer requirements.
Questions homeowners ask
Do you install Class 4 roofing throughout DFW?
Yes. Element serves Fairview and communities across Dallas–Fort Worth. We confirm availability for the property and explain the material options in the written proposal.
Will a Class 4 roof lower my insurance premium?
Some insurers offer discounts for qualifying impact-rated products, but eligibility and savings vary. Homeowners should confirm requirements directly with their insurance carrier before selecting a system.
Can I see the installation process?
Yes. The project videos on our homepage show the tear-off, deck preparation, dry-in, and installation stages from above.
