Impact rating
A Class 4 shingle resists hail damage better than a standard-rated shingle, though no roofing material is completely hail-proof.

Asphalt Shingle Roofing in Springfield, MO
Most roofers are certified with only one shingle manufacturer, if any.
SRA is certified by four major shingle manufacturers — including Owens Corning's Platinum tier, a level most Ozarks contractors never reach — so the shingle on your house is the one you actually want.
Why Springfield Homeowners Choose SRA
A shingle roof is a system, not just what you see from the curb. The shingle, underlayment, flashing, and attic airflow all have to work together. If you get one piece wrong, the shingle's rating doesn't mean much once the wind picks up.
SRA has repaired and replaced asphalt shingle roofs across southwest Missouri, including complex storm-damaged roofs that not every crew is equipped to handle.
Certified by Four Major Shingle Manufacturers
Being certified by four major shingle manufacturers means we're not limited to one company's catalog. This means you get the shingle that actually fits your roof, instead of whatever a single-manufacturer contractor happens to carry.
Still Here When Storm Chasers Have Moved On
And unlike the crews that show up after a storm and disappear before the warranty ever matters, SRA is still here. Built on decades of Ozarks roofing experience, we're not a name you'll be trying to track down next season. Your warranty is backed by a local company, only a few miles away.
“Storm Restorations did a great job reroofing our home. There was more damage than I thought underneath the shingles, and they repaired everything that needed repair in a thorough and professional manner.”
Choosing the Right Asphalt Shingle for Your Roof
Not every roof needs the same shingle — and anyone who tells you otherwise before actually getting on your roof is guessing.
The right call depends on a few factors:
Wind rating
A higher wind rating helps shingles stay secured during strong storms, especially on exposed rooflines.
Algae resistance
Algae-resistant shingles are less likely to develop the dark streaks that appear quickly in Missouri's humid climate.
Architectural vs. three-tab
Architectural shingles are heavier and more durable than three-tab shingles, helping them hold up better against wind, weather, and long-term sun exposure.
What We Recommend
Three-tab shingles are a great option for simpler roofs and tighter budgets. They're lighter and have a more uniform look than others. After we take a look at the roof, we'll give our recommendation based on findings, the home, and your priorities.
For many homes, Springfield's weather makes architectural shingles the better long-term option. They're heavier, more durable, and hold up better against wind, moisture, and sun exposure.
What Actually Backs Your Shingle Once It's Installed
A shingle warranty is only as good as the company still around to honor it — and only as good as the certification behind the install in the first place.
Here's what most homeowners don't realize:
A manufacturer's standard warranty and an enhanced warranty are not the same thing, and not every contractor is authorized to offer the enhanced version.
GAF Certified Plus: Enhanced Warranty Coverage
SRA's GAF Certified Plus™ status means we're authorized to offer enhanced warranty options like Silver Pledge™ and System Plus on qualifying GAF systems — coverage that goes beyond the manufacturer's standard warranty.
That's not something every roofer can offer; GAF limits this authorization to a smaller, vetted group of contractors.
Warranties That Don't Disappear When the Contractor Does
An enhanced warranty is only worth something if the company that installed your roof is still around to answer for it. That's the part a storm-chasing crew can't offer — they may be gone before your warranty ever gets tested.
SRA is certified by four major shingle manufacturers and isn't going anywhere next season — which means your warranty has somewhere to go if you ever actually need it.
Asphalt Shingle Roof Installation Process
A rushed tear-off is usually how a roof ends up curling within a few years.
At SRA, we don't cut corners to hit a faster timeline. Every layer gets done right the first time, no matter how long it takes.
Here's what a typical SRA asphalt install actually looks like — no shortcuts, no surprises:
Full tear-off and decking inspection, with any soft plywood replaced before anything else goes down
Synthetic underlayment and ice-and-water barrier at eaves and valleys
Drip edge installation
Shingles installed from the bottom up
Flashing at every chimney and vent
Ridge caps
Full walkthrough with the homeowner
Most Springfield homes take one to three days, depending on the roof's size and pitch.
“Within 24 hours of our call, Gage was out to inspect our roof and did a very thorough job. He explained the results in great detail.”
Storm Damage & Insurance Claims
When storm damage leads to an insurance claim, SRA stays involved from the first inspection through the completed roof. Our customers regularly mention the communication, guidance, and hands-on help they received, from answering questions and meeting with adjusters to helping make sure important damage was not overlooked.
The SRA Difference
Here's what we do, and it's the reason SRA's insurance work holds up when it counts:
Through the free SRA Advantage program, we document your roof before a storm ever hits. That way, if hail or wind damage happens, there's already a clear, dated record of what your roof looked like beforehand.
After a storm, we document every hail hit, dent, and instance of granule loss with photos, so you walk into your adjuster conversation with evidence.
We'll walk you through what ACV, RCV, and depreciation actually mean for your policy and your roof.
The claims process has changed a lot over the last five years, and most homeowners are still working off assumptions that are years out of date.
We've kept up.

Frequently Asked Questions
Asphalt shingles can hold up well to Springfield's hail, wind, and heat, but the grade and installation quality make the difference. A higher-rated shingle, installed correctly, is far less likely to degrade early than a standard shingle installed poorly.
