Malarkey shingles are engineered for performance, sustainability, and long-term protection.

Unlike standard roofing shingles, Malarkey shingles are made with NEX® Polymer Modified Rubberized Asphalt, include upcycled rubber and plastics, and use smog-reducing granules designed to help clean the air. Malarkey reports that its shingles provide up to 35% greater tear strength and up to 65% greater granule adhesion than the ASTM D3462 industry standard, with select lines offering up to a Class 4 impact rating.

Better materials matter.

So does the company installing them.

That is why Mr. GoodRoof installs Malarkey shingles as complete roofing systems, with the installation standards, warranty registration, and documentation needed to help homeowners understand what they are getting before they sign.

Why Choose a Malarkey Shingle?

Malarkey shingles are built around a simple idea:

Make the shingle stronger, more flexible, longer-lasting, and more sustainable.

Malarkey’s roofing products are designed with four major advantages:

  • 1

    Craftsmanship
     Shingles made with advanced materials, strong adhesive bonds, wider nailing areas, and thoughtful installation features.

  • 2

    Performance
     Roofing products engineered for wind, rain, hail, heat, cold, and long-term weather exposure.

  • 3

    Sustainability
     Upcycled rubber and plastics help reduce landfill waste, while smog-reducing granules help clean the air.

  • 4

    Warranty Protection
     Strong manufacturer warranty options, with enhanced coverage available through Malarkey Certified Premium Contractors on qualifying complete roof systems.

At Mr. GoodRoof, we pair Malarkey’s product technology with our complete roofing system approach. That means the roof is installed for appearance, performance, protection, and warranty support.

What Makes Malarkey Shingles Different?

NEX® Rubberized Asphalt

Malarkey pioneered SBS polymer modified, rubberized asphalt shingle technology. Their NEX® Polymer Modified Asphalt strengthens and rubberizes the asphalt core of the shingle for all-weather resilience, impact resistance, granule adhesion, and aging longevity.

In plain English:

Rubberized asphalt helps the shingle flex, absorb impact, and resist cracking better than traditional oxidized asphalt shingles.

That matters in Middle Tennessee, where roofs face heat, cold snaps, wind-driven rain, hail, storms, humidity, and rapid weather changes throughout the year.

Upcycled Rubber and Plastics

Malarkey incorporates upcycled rubber and plastics into its shingles to help reduce landfill waste. Malarkey reports that its use of upcycled materials and smog-reducing granules has diverted the equivalent of billions of plastic bags and millions of rubber tires from landfills.

That gives homeowners a roof built for performance while also supporting a more sustainable manufacturing approach.

Smog-Reducing Granules

Malarkey shingles use smog-reducing granules designed to help clean the air of emission pollutants. Malarkey reports that its smog-reducing shingles have delivered the smog-fighting capacity equivalent of more than one million planted trees.

In plain English:

A Malarkey roof does more than protect the home. It can also help reduce air pollution.

Built for Middle Tennessee Weather

Middle Tennessee roofs deal with more than normal wear and tear.

A roof in this region may face:

  • Heavy rain
  • Wind-driven storms
  • Hail
  • High humidity
  • Heat buildup
  • Cold snaps
  • Rapid temperature swings
  • Tree debris
  • Algae-prone shaded roof slopes

Malarkey shingles are engineered for all-weather performance, with product lines that include impact resistance, enhanced wind warranty options, strong granule adhesion, and algae protection depending on the shingle selected.

Malarkey vs. GAF: Which Shingle Is Right for Your Roof?

Mr. GoodRoof also installs GAF roofing systems and can help homeowners compare both options during the estimate process.

GAF is a strong, widely recognized manufacturer with broad warranty options and strong consumer name recognition. Malarkey may be the better fit for homeowners who prioritize rubberized asphalt technology, Class 4 impact options, smog-reducing granules, upcycled materials, and Malarkey’s Certified Premium warranty path.

In plain English:

There is not one “best” shingle for every home. There is the best roof system for your home, your budget, your performance goals, and your warranty priorities.

That is why Mr. GoodRoof walks homeowners through the options before they commit.

WHY contractor Certification matters with Roof Warranty - mr goodroof

  • Starter shingles
  • Hip and ridge shingles
  • Flashing and edge metal
  • Ventilation
  • Pipe boots and penetration details
  • Proper installation methods
  • Warranty registration and documentation

That is why Mr. GoodRoof treats roof replacement as a complete system, not just a layer of shingles.

The roof should be installed to support performance, longevity, and warranty protection.

  • Algae protection
  • Warranty options
  • Sample boards and exterior pairings
  • Roof designer tools and color selectors
