The HTX Difference
Owner-Led
System-Based
Transparent
Premium is not a label. It should change the project.
HTX is built for homeowners who care about the finished result and want to understand exactly what they are buying. The goal is not to push the most expensive option. The goal is to show what changes when you spend more—and whether those changes are worth it for your property.
More than a shingle sample
Compare the roofing system: material, accessories, flashing, ventilation, warranty opportunity, architecture and project scope.
Clear scope and pricing
HTX publishes roof-pricing guidance and explains inclusions, exclusions and assumptions before asking a customer to commit.

Manufacturer Credential
Local Business Verification
Owner Verification
You should be able to verify who you are hiring.
A contractor's website should not be the only source telling you the contractor is credible. HTX publishes outside references so homeowners can verify relevant manufacturer, business and professional information independently.
TAMKO Pro Gold Certified Contractor
HTX participates in TAMKO's Pro contractor program and can offer applicable enhanced manufacturer warranty opportunities on qualifying systems.

Roofing claims should be tied to something you can check.
HTX uses manufacturer documentation, recognized testing standards and independent industry resources to explain roofing performance. Laboratory impact classifications are comparison tools—not promises that a roof cannot be damaged by hail.
What does Class 3 mean?
TAMKO Titan XT carries a UL 2218 Class 3 impact classification. That is a laboratory test classification, not a hail-proof guarantee.

UL 2218 is a recognized impact-resistance test standard for prepared roof covering materials.
