Frequently Asked Questions
Quick Answers
Can Class 4 impact-resistant shingles lower my homeowners insurance? Many Oklahoma carriers offer 15–25% premium discounts for Class 4 (UL 2218) impact-resistant shingles because they dramatically reduce hail claims. On a typical $2,000 annual premium, that is $300–$500 saved every year, which can offset the upgrade cost within a few years. Proof Construction installs Class 4 systems and can help you document them for your carrier.
Is it better to replace my roof now or wait? If your roof is past its expected life, waiting usually costs more: emergency repairs, interior water damage, and a rushed replacement after a storm all carry premiums. If your roof still has 10+ years of life, waiting can make financial sense. The calculator above compares both paths over a 10-year window so you can decide with real numbers instead of guesswork.
Does replacing my roof save money on energy bills? Yes. A new roof with modern ventilation, cool-roof shingles, and tighter decking typically cuts heating and cooling costs by 5–15% in the Tulsa climate. On a $180/month energy bill that is roughly $110–$320 per year. The payback calculator above applies that range to your specific bill and roof age.
When should I replace my roof instead of repairing it? As a rule of thumb, if your roof is past 75% of its expected life, has widespread shingle loss, curling, or granule wear, or has already leaked, replacement is usually the smarter investment than repeated repairs. Run the payback calculator above with your roof’s age and material life, then call (918) 734-4444 for a free inspection and honest recommendation.
