CertainTeed’s Presidential® Shake® UL 2218 Class 3 impact-resistant and algae-resistant shingles are a premium roofing option designed to capture the timeless appearance of hand-split wood shakes while delivering modern durability and performance. Their layered construction combines a fiberglass core with protective surface materials and advanced color blending techniques, resulting in a rich, dimensional aesthetic that closely resembles natural wood.

These shingles are engineered to handle demanding weather conditions, including wind speeds up to 110 mph, helping maintain roof integrity during storms. They also carry a Class A fire resistance rating from Underwriters Laboratories, providing the highest level of tested fire protection available for residential roofing systems.

A broad palette of color choices allows homeowners to achieve an authentic wood-shake look without the upkeep, cost, or weathering concerns associated with real timber. This makes them a practical option for those who want traditional style paired with modern performance benefits.

For installation, Presidential Shake shingles incorporate a secure locking design that helps keep shingles properly aligned and firmly in place, even under high-wind conditions. They also include self-sealing adhesive strips and NailTrak® guidance markings, which support more accurate placement and a cleaner, more consistent finished roof.

To help preserve long-term appearance, StreakFighter® technology is included (in applicable regions) to reduce algae growth and minimize dark streaking on the roof surface. This helps maintain a cleaner look with less ongoing maintenance.

Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, these shingles are designed to offer long-term confidence and protection. Overall, Presidential Shake combines architectural elegance with strong weather resistance and low-maintenance performance, making it a high-end roofing solution for homeowners seeking classic style with modern reliability.
