Hip and ridge shingles are specially designed shingles installed along the peaks and ridges of your roof.

These areas experience the strongest wind forces during storms.

Why Standard Shingles Aren’t Used Here

Regular shingles aren’t designed to bend over roof peaks. Ridge shingles are thicker and pre-cut to create a secure seal.

Why They Matter

Hip and ridge shingles:

• Prevent wind uplift

• Protect roof peaks

• Improve roof ventilation sealing

• Enhance appearance

Roof peaks are the most vulnerable areas during hurricanes. Proper ridge caps dramatically improve wind resistance.
