The 2025 Atlantic hurricane season is already shaping up to be another active one. According to AccuWeather forecasts, homeowners could see 13 to 18 named storms, with as many as five major hurricanes reaching Category 3 or higher. For those in Gulf Shores, Mobile, and across coastal Alabama, that means one thing: your roof needs to be ready.
At TAMKO Building Products, we’ve been helping homeowners protect their most valuable investment for decades. Titan XT® shingles are designed with Gulf Coast homeowners in mind — engineered to protect against the high winds, heavy rains, and flying debris that hurricane season brings, all without sacrificing style or curb appeal.‡
Hurricane-force winds can peel back shingles, loosen nails, and leave homes vulnerable to water damage. Torrential rains and debris can compromise a roof’s integrity, leading to costly repairs — or worse, interior damage. Even a “minor” storm can create major problems. That’s why having a roof with the right combination of strength, durability, and performance is key to protecting your home and family during hurricane season.
Titan XT® Shingles: Roofing That Rises to the Challenge
When it comes to protection against high-winds, Titan XT® shingles stand out as one of the strongest options on the market.‡ With a 160 mph wind warranty,* Titan XT® shingles are engineered to stay put when the winds pick up — giving you confidence even in the face of a major storm.
But Titan XT® shingles don’t stop at wind protection.* With a Class 3 impact rating,† these shingles also help safeguard your home against the other elements that can occur with severe weather.‡
Innovation at the Core
At TAMKO, we pride ourselves on innovation. Titan XT® shingles feature our exclusive TriShield™ Technology and AnchorLock™ protection — a combination that delivers superior performance by:
- Keeping protective granules in place
- Creating a strong, weatherproof seal
- Maintaining laminated shingle integrity
- Reinforcing the entire roofing system
This isn’t just a shingle — it’s a purposefully designed solution to help Alabama homeowners prepare for anything Mother Nature has in store.
Beauty Meets Strength
Protection doesn’t have to come at the expense of style. Titan XT® shingles are available in 20 vibrant colors, giving you the freedom to choose a look that enhances your home’s beauty while delivering award-winning protection. (Titan XT® shingles were proudly voted Product of the Year 2024 in the Home Protection category!**)
Don’t Wait Until It’s Too Late
As any Alabama homeowner knows, waiting until a storm is on the radar is too late to address roofing issues. Now is the time to inspect your roof and invest in an upgrade that can save you time, money, and worry later.
By choosing Titan XT® shingles, you’re not just replacing a roof — you’re reinforcing your home against what’s to come. With the 2025 season already underway, there’s no better time to take action and secure your home with the strength of Titan XT® shingles.
