Why Homeowners Choose Malarkey Shingles

Malarky Highlander Strom Grey

When it comes to protecting your home, not all shingles are created equal. That’s why at Red Rock Roofing & Construction, we proudly install Malarkey Roofing Products — shingles built for performance, sustainability, and peace of mind.

Built to Last in Northwest Weather

Malarkey shingles are engineered with advanced technology to withstand rain, wind, hail, and UV exposure far better than standard shingles. They feature:

  • Rubberized asphalt for flexibility and tear resistance in extreme temperatures
  • Up to 50% more laminate bonds to prevent layers from separating
  • Double the rain seals for extra leak protection
  • A wider nailing area for faster, more accurate installation

Independent testing has shown:

  • Up to 35% greater tear strength
  • Up to 65% better granule adhesion
  • Class 4 impact resistance (the highest rating) for hail and storm protection

Sustainable Roofing That Benefits the Planet

Every Malarkey roof helps reduce waste and pollution:

  • Each roof upcycles the equivalent of 5 recycled tires and 3,200 plastic bags
  • Smog-reducing granules help clean the air, with the same effect as planting about 2 trees per roof

Shingle Options We Offer

Malarkey has a variety of shingle lines to match your budget, style, and protection needs:

Asphalt Shingle FAQs

Which shingles hold granules best?

Polymer-modified shingles like Malarkey’s NEX® Technology lines hold granules longer, helping your roof look newer over time.

Are asphalt shingles better than cedar shakes?

  • Asphalt: Affordable, low-maintenance, wide color range, and Class A fire-rated.
  • Cedar shakes: Beautiful but costly, and require regular upkeep.
  • Shake-look asphalt: Combines cedar’s appearance with asphalt’s durability.

What warranties are included?

  • Malarkey Secure Choice™ system warranties
  • Red Rock Roofing: Our own 15-year workmanship warranty
