Which Shingles Survive Kendall County
Three-tab shingles are the wrong roof here. The rest is choosing between good and better.
Three-tab shingles are thin, rated for low wind speeds and bruise easily. On an exposed Boerne lot they fail early. Architectural shingles are thicker, laminated, wind-rated and carry longer warranties; they’re our baseline. The upgrade worth considering is Class 4 impact resistance, tested against a two-inch steel ball from twenty feet, which resists hail bruising and earns a premium discount from many Texas insurers.
Around Boerne we also pay attention to wind rating and installation: high-wind starter strips, six nails per shingle and sealed ridge caps, because the fronts that cross the plateau lift anything installed to the minimum.

What Makes a Shingle Roof Last Here
The shingle is a third of the system. Installation is the rest.
Full tear-off
Down to the decking.
Synthetic underlayment
Waterproof synthetic everywhere, ice-and-water shield in valleys and around penetrations.
High-wind starter and ridge
Required for the wind warranty and for a roof on an exposed lot.
New flashing and boots
Pipe boots, step flashing, drip edge and valley metal replaced.
Six nails per shingle
Hand-checked. Most premature failures trace to nailing.
Balanced ventilation
Ridge vent and intake sized to the attic, required for the warranty.
Warranties, Explained Honestly
A lifetime shingle warranty is a marketing term. Here’s what it covers.
Limited lifetime manufacturer warranties cover manufacturing defects, with full coverage for the first decade and prorated coverage after. They don’t cover hail, wind beyond the rated speed or installation errors, which is why the roofer’s workmanship warranty matters. Ours is 2 to 5 years in writing depending on the system, and we register your manufacturer warranty.
