About Us:
We Are Pro Exteriors & Construction
Pro Exteriors was started in the spring of 2010. It was started by Nate Schweppe after working for his family’s roofing business since he was around 12 years old.
At Pro Exteriors & Construction we are a full-service exterior remodel and restoration company. We are family and locally owned and operated. All of our employees are local and speak fluent English. We believe that bigger is rarely better and we focus on quality over quantity. We believe every client deserves our full attention from start to finish. We know exterior projects can be expensive, stressful, and sometimes confusing, we strive to minimize or eliminate as much of that as possible. We believe in educating our clients on the options that fit their desires and budget and letting them make the decision rather than “selling” them a product or service and believe in creating lasting relationships rather than one-time sales. We believe in old-fashioned customer service coupled with cutting-edge products and services.

Just the weight and overall feel of that malarkey legacy sold me. It's damn near 50% heavier than things like the timberline or landmark. You can twist it, turn it, it doesn't crack. Try that with a landmark. I was kind of on the fence with these until I put my hands on them. Then I had no more questions and now have legacy shingles on my roof
ope you NEVER need them to honor their warrentty - cause they wont - Malarkeys own inspector deemed our one year old roof to look so bad due to manafacture defects- Malrkey has not contacted us in over 3 months since inspection - Way past their 45 day claims process timelines - Poor customer service - Malarkey acts in Bad Faith - I will never deaL WITH THEM AGAIN - Even after I take them to court and make them honor their warrenty but who needs the hassell - go with a more reputable company !
@@Tamara-ip3fw let us know when you find one 😂 like I don't doubt what you're saying. The last crew I hired warned me the warranties aren't worth the paper they're written on. The reason I made a positive comment about malarkey is because the legacy is a good thick heavy flexible shingle with a lot of adhesive . at least the batch I have. I would suggest anyone goes down and physically inspects the shingle they plan on using it just make sure it's thick and has a lot of glue. Then make sure you're installers aren't doing crazy things like leaving nails close to gap lines. It's not rocket science
I had a chance to handle a vista and certainteed full shingle.. the vista was Absolutely a different animal, flexible and the granules werent shedding... I did the rollup test where you make a burrito out of the shingle and worse yet, stomp on with ur full weight.. the vista came out will almost no damage while thye certainteed was cracking and shedding granules like crazy... like the commenter below me, when you see that 1st hand, not thru a review, it makes you a believer in the sbs polymer construction.
Yes! All Malarkey shingles are amazing!!
hay Nate were switching to Malarkey also right now
Last week I received a new roof with the vista AR which is now a class 4 shingle
They are an amazing shingle and probably the best "bang for your buck" out there! Congrats on a solid choice.
@@YetiRoofing I asked the contractor to take pictures for me, and then I put it into this little slideshow

@@dcwatashi that looks great. I love the high profile ridge cap and open valleys. Really makes it pop.
@@YetiRoofing well it’s thanks to videos like yours and also Roofing Insights. I followed his guidelines and registered through his website.
I absolutely love my roof and my neighbors who used another company but I think they used the same shingles but they did the box vents and the dark color but they love mine
Silverwood looks great on roof. I just got Vista Antique Brown installed.@@dcwatashi
Although semi retired I’ve started using malarkey along with certainteed landmark tl & pres tl..
All good options. Malarkey is our first choice but Certainteed is a great option as well.
Great Video
Thanks!
Getting a little high is definitely a big problem for roofers 😂
We have a two story home with a steep pitched roof that is quite labour intensive vs the rather straight forward garage. I was thinking of installing the Malarkey Vista on the house to get a longer life & go with IKO Cambridge on the garage in light grey on both. Do you think the look of each would be that noticeably different or would they look similar and just perform differently?
I'm not terribly familiar with Iko but off the top of my head, I would say yes. Each shingle manufacturer has their own color and color blend. If the house and garage are close enough that you can look at both of them at the same time I think they would definitely be a noticeable difference. If you're looking for something a little more cost-effective put Vista on the house and Highlander on the garage then it will be the same color.
Thanks for the input, the Vista is actually what I was thinking of installing on the house.
I guess more research on my part will be needed. Best for me would be to physically look at both.
BTW I'm up in Edmonton Alberta Canada so the long periods of extended heat are not as much a problem but the one side of the house roof faces directly south & it seems like the last few years we've had some really hot spells (for our area) & the existing 25 year old shingles have really taken a beating with cupping & noticable granual loss & debris found coming out the wave downspout.
Malarkey’s Dragan tooth or tab size
on the architectural shingles is actually wider than iko’s as well
So that is fairly noticeable
the difference in cost on your garage $500 or less
When use say the price is a little more, if going with a example Vista vs a Certainteed Landmark Pro and square foot about 2400sq.ft would you say price difference around $1000 more, or closer to like $3000 more?
@@moelo5930 probably $1,500-$2,000
How can I get Malarkey shingles in Northwest Georgia. Are they good in hot states
Synethic or felt paper underneath these?
We always use synthetic.
Can't get them on Georgia
That's not surprising. They don't initially do well in hot temperatures. They are "soft" when first installed and scuff easily.
@@YetiRoofing"Scuff Easy"? I'm a bit confused, some of the videos I've seen show the Malarkey rep basically trying to scuff them with his shoes to show how durable they are?
@@D-Mayor when they are first installed they scuff easily if it's a hot day. They firm up over time and are great.
@@YetiRoofing thanks for the info.
👌🏼
Can we get these in ohio?
There is a distributor in Dayton
Seems like a lot of the reasons you like Malarkey is because it makes your job easier. Bigger nail zone, easier to handle, can be installed in lower temperatures.
I'm not saying it isn't a good shingle. I do believe it is based on my research. I just have to wonder about your objectivity...
That is definitely part of it but also, if our job is easier it helps to reduce the chance for human error, allows us to keep our costs down, and allows us to start roofing earlier in the spring and continue installing shingles later into the fall, allowing us to help more clients get their roof problems taken care of before the weather prohibits it.
Thanks for checking out the video and commenting!
@@YetiRoofing I get it. Part of me wishes I could ask what the company does to keep the roofing installers happy before I go with a particular company. They're the ones I want to be happy and care about their jobs. Not some rapacious CEO who never installed a roof in his life.
@@YetiRoofing P.S. what is considered "early" and "late"? Is it all about average temp?
@@donaldcedar7574 totally agree. I was an installer long before I was an owner. I worked for my dads roofing company installing since I was about 10 years old.
@@donaldcedar7574 the temperature definitely plays a factor but even more than the temperature it is the positioning of the sun. The shingles need the radiant heat of the sun as much or more than they need warm air temperature.
It's better to install shingles a little "too early" in the spring since Summer is right around the corner versus installing them "too late" in the fall, in which case they have to make it through the whole winter before they will really really seal down.
We will start shingling as early as February or March if the weather is nice, but we try to be done by late October or early November if at all possible.
