Frequently asked questions
Have questions about your roofing project? We’ve got answers. Whether you’re wondering about timelines, materials, warranties, or what to expect during installation, our FAQ section covers the most common questions homeowners ask. Explore below to get the clarity and confidence you need before starting your project with Cal-Vintage Roofing.
What makes Malarkey roofing shingles different from other brands?
Malarkey roofing shingles are made with NEX® Polymer Modified Asphalt, which combines traditional asphalt with upcycled rubber and plastics. This unique formula improves shingle flexibility, granule retention, and impact resistance while also reducing environmental waste—making Malarkey a leader in sustainable roofing.
Are Malarkey roofing shingles impact-resistant?
Yes, many Malarkey roofing shingles—including the Vista® AR and Legacy® Scotchgard™—have a Class 4 impact rating, the highest available. This means they provide excellent protection against hail and debris, which can help homeowners in storm-prone regions avoid costly damage and repairs.
How long do Malarkey roofing shingles last?
Malarkey roofing shingles are built for long-term performance. Depending on the product line and installation, they can last 30 years or more. They come with limited lifetime warranties, and higher-tier shingles include extended non-prorated coverage for even more peace of mind.
What is NEX® Polymer Modified Asphalt?
NEX® is Malarkey’s proprietary asphalt blend that includes recycled rubber and plastic. It enhances the shingles’ strength, flexibility, and weather resistance while using sustainable materials that reduce landfill waste and help create cleaner, longer-lasting roofing systems.
Are Malarkey roofing shingles environmentally friendly?
Yes. In addition to using upcycled materials, Malarkey shingles feature 3M™ Smog-Reducing Granules that help remove pollution from the air. Their roofing systems also contribute to energy efficiency and meet many green building standards.
What are 3M™ Smog-Reducing Granules?
These granules use photocatalytic technology to break down smog-forming pollutants like nitrogen oxides. When exposed to sunlight, the granules trigger a reaction that helps clean the air—making each Malarkey roof function like a small urban tree.
What is Scotchgard™ protection, and how does it work?
Scotchgard™ Protector, powered by 3M™ Copper Granules, is designed to resist algae growth and staining. These granules release copper ions over time, preventing the black streaks commonly caused by algae and keeping your roof looking clean and new.
Are Malarkey roofing shingles eligible for homeowner insurance discounts?
Yes. Because many Malarkey shingles have a Class 3 or Class 4 impact rating, some insurance providers offer discounts for homes with these shingles installed. It’s a good idea to check with your insurer for specific savings.
