Malarkey Vista — Premium Architectural Shingles
The Malarkey Vista line is our most-installed residential shingle. Vista shingles feature Malarkey's Flexor polymer modified asphalt for superior granule adhesion and flexibility in temperature extremes — critical for Indiana's freeze-thaw cycles. Available in colors like Storm Gray, Brilliant Black, and Black Oak, Vista shingles provide a rich, dimensional appearance that enhances any home's architecture.
Vista shingles include Scotchgard Protector by 3M as standard, preventing the black algae streaks that plague conventional shingles within 5-10 years. The Class 4 impact rating provides proven hail resistance, which can qualify homeowners for insurance premium discounts. Our Preferred Contractor status ensures your Vista installation meets Malarkey's specifications for full warranty activation.

Malarkey Highlander — Impact-Resistant Performance
The Malarkey Highlander is engineered for maximum durability in storm-prone regions. Like Vista, Highlander carries a Class 4 impact rating and Scotchgard protection, but with additional weight and thickness that provides enhanced wind resistance up to 130 mph. Highlander is available in popular colors including Black Oak, Natural Wood, Weathered Wood Plus, and Storm Gray.
For Indianapolis homeowners who want the highest level of storm protection, Highlander is the premium choice. The heavier construction resists blow-off in high winds and withstands larger hailstones without cracking. Combined with proper underlayment and flashing details from our installation team, a Highlander roof provides decades of reliable protection.

Why SPG Installs Malarkey
We chose Malarkey as our primary residential roofing partner based on years of field experience comparing shingle performance across manufacturers. Malarkey's Flexor polymer modified asphalt consistently outperforms standard oxidized asphalt in granule retention, flexibility, and longevity. Our crews have installed over 180 Malarkey roofs across central Indiana, and the warranty claim rate is virtually zero.
As a Preferred Contractor, SPG has direct access to Malarkey's technical support, enhanced warranty programs, and the latest product training. This relationship means our homeowners receive better warranty coverage than standard installations, and our installers are always current on Malarkey's evolving best practices.

Color Selection & Design Consultation
Choosing the right shingle color impacts your home's curb appeal and can influence resale value. Malarkey offers a carefully curated palette across both Vista and Highlander lines, from classic Storm Gray and Driftwood to bold Brilliant Black and Natural Wood. Our design consultation process includes sample boards, drone-captured aerial views of your existing roof, and digital visualization tools.
We help homeowners coordinate shingle color with existing brick, stone, siding, and trim to create a cohesive exterior appearance. Indiana homeowners increasingly choose darker, high-contrast colors for modern curb appeal, while traditional neighborhoods tend toward earth tones. Either way, every Malarkey color includes Scotchgard protection to maintain its appearance for decades.

What Our Customers Say
SPG installed Malarkey Highlander Black Oak on our home after hail damage. The roof looks incredible and we got a discount on our insurance premiums because of the Class 4 impact rating. Highly recommend.
We chose Malarkey Vista in Storm Gray based on SPG's recommendation. Two years later, no algae streaks while our neighbors' roofs are already showing dark spots. The Scotchgard really works.
SPG's crew was professional and efficient. They replaced our 20-year-old roof with Malarkey Highlander in two days. The cleanup was spotless and the warranty process was seamless.
