At New Heights Roofing, we pride ourselves on using materials that strike the perfect balance between performance, durability, and visual appeal—especially in a region like the Inland Northwest, where weather can go from harsh winters to blazing hot summers in a matter of months.
While we install a wide range of shingle products, Malarkey Windsor® designer shingles stand out as one of the top-tier options we offer for homeowners looking to take their roof to the next level. Whether you’re after increased protection, longer-lasting materials, or just want your home to turn heads, Windsor is one of the best ways to get there.
What Are Malarkey Windsor Shingles?
Windsor shingles are architectural laminated designer shingles designed to mimic the natural look of cedar shake roofing, but with the low-maintenance durability of asphalt. These are Malarkey’s heaviest and most robust shingles, making them ideal for homes where both aesthetics and protection matter.
Windsor shingles are made using polymer-modified (SBS) asphalt, which gives them a level of flexibility and impact resistance that standard shingles can’t match. This added toughness helps them resist cracking and damage during freeze-thaw cycles—something we know all too well here in the Inland Northwest.
Why Choose Windsor Over Standard Shingles?
Here are just a few reasons we recommend Windsor for clients looking for a high-end roofing option:
✅ Bold, Dimensional Appearance – With an oversized profile and enhanced shadow lines, Windsor shingles provide deep dimension and rich curb appeal that traditional shingles just can’t replicate.
✅ Superior Durability – Engineered to withstand extreme weather, these shingles carry a Class 4 impact resistance rating, which may qualify you for insurance discounts.
✅ Scotchgard™ Algae Protection – Say goodbye to ugly black streaks. Windsor shingles are built with copper-coated granules that prevent algae growth over time.
✅ Smog-Reducing Granules – Like all Malarkey shingles, Windsor includes sustainable, smog-reducing granules that help clean the air—equivalent to planting two trees per roof.
✅ Limited Lifetime Warranty – Backed by Malarkey’s strong warranty support for peace of mind.
Is Windsor Right for Your Home?
Malarkey Windsor shingles are an excellent choice for larger homes, high-end remodels, or homeowners who want more than just “basic protection.” If you’re after something that makes a statement and holds up against the elements year after year, this is a shingle worth the investment.
At New Heights Roofing, we’ve installed Windsor shingles on homes throughout Washington and North Idaho, and each time we’re reminded why this product sits at the top of the Malarkey lineup.
