What callers askabout shingle roofs
What is better, 3-tab or architectural shingles?
Architectural, on the numbers. IKO rates its Cambridge architectural shingle at 110 mph, or 130 mph with High Wind Application, and its Marathon Plus AR 3-tab at 60 mph. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso installs IKO shingles and can go over both at your free inspection.
Do lifetime shingles really last a lifetime?
Lifetime is a warranty term. IKO defines it in the Limited Warranty in effect when your shingles are installed, so read that paper. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso hands it to you printed beside our own workmanship warranty.
How much does an asphalt shingle roof cost in El Paso?
It depends on the roof. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso prices each shingle roof after a free inspection, and the written estimate reaches you within 48 hours. Roof size, pitch, layers to tear off, decking, and the IKO line set the price.
Will insurance pay for a new shingle roof?
Your policy decides. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso doesn’t need a claim to inspect your roof. If you file one, we document the damage and write the estimate, and your insurance company makes the call.

How to choosean IKO shingle
Roof size and pitch come with the house, and the shingle line is your choice. The wind rating, the impact class, and the warranty set the lines apart.
Skip 3-tab when
- Wind worries you. The 60 mph rating on 3-tab sits under El Paso’s 84 mph peak gust on record.
- You want a Limited Lifetime warranty in place of a Limited 25 year.
- You want an impact class to show your insurance agent.
Check before you pick a shingle
- Availability. IKO limits its cool colors to certain regions and Nordic to select markets.
- The warranty. IKO’s terms are the ones in effect when your shingles are installed.
- The discount. Your insurance agent can tell you what an impact class earns.
Inside the City of El Paso, a residential roof covering permit is required when 25% or more is replaced. Texas has no state roofer license, so ask any roofing contractor for proof of insurance before you hire.
What El Paso, TXweather means for shingles
Sun and heat
Heat speeds the aging of asphalt shingles, and south-facing slopes age faster. Look for surface cracks called alligatoring and splits that run in stair-steps.
Wind
A shingle’s wind resistance depends on its seal strip, and it drops sharply once that bond fails. NRCA advises hand-tabbing with quarter-size dabs of adhesive where winds are high.
Monsoon
A normal El Paso year brings 8.78 inches of precipitation, so a new shingle roof can sit dry for months. A monsoon storm can be its first real test.
Hail and storm damage
An impact class is no promise against hail. IKO says hail damage isn’t covered under its limited warranty, and that the rating exists to help owners get a premium reduction, if available.
Weather figures from the National Weather Service in El Paso. Signs of aging from InterNACHI. Hail terms from IKO.
What you getin writing
A new shingle roof comes with two papers: the written estimate before we start and the warranty paper at the end. IKO’s limited warranty covers the shingles, and ours covers how they were installed.
Our workmanship warranty transfers to the next owner if you sell the house. IKO’s transfer terms vary by year and product.

More questions aboutasphalt shingles
What are Class 3 shingles?
They’re one step below the top impact class. Impact classes run 1 to 4. IKO’s Cambridge and Dynasty are Class 3, and Nordic is Class 4. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso can tell you what each rating means for your roof.
Do impact-rated shingles lower insurance in Texas?
They may. The Texas Department of Insurance says Class 4 gets the highest credit, and each company sets its own discount. Ask your agent before you buy. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso can’t promise a discount.
Are dark shingles a bad idea?
Ask about cool colors first. IKO’s Cool Colors Plus versions of Cambridge and Dynasty carry a CRRC-1 listing and SRI 20+, and they’re sold only in certain regions. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso can go over color at your free inspection.
Do roofers still use 3-tab shingles?
Yes. IKO still lists Marathon Plus AR as its 3-tab line, with a Limited 25 year warranty. Ask Lifetime Roofing of El Paso whether it’s available here.
How many bundles of shingles make a square?
Three, on IKO’s coverage figure. Each bundle covers 33 1/3 square feet, and a square is 100 square feet. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso works out your roof’s size at the free inspection.
Can I finance a new shingle roof?
Yes, financing is available. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso also offers a 5% military discount. Ask about both when you call (915) 353-3934.
