About Decra Roofing Systems
Decra Roofing Systems has manufactured stone coated steel roofing products since 1957, establishing the category that now includes numerous competitors. As the originator of stone coated steel technology, Decra brings over six decades of product development and warranty backing to every panel they produce. Decra products are manufactured using Galvalume steel, and are warranted for 50 years with wind warranties up to 120 mph depending on the product line and installation method.
Decra Product Lines
Decra Shake
Decra Shake replicates the rustic texture and shadow depth of authentic wood shake without wood’s vulnerabilities to fire, rot, and insects. The steel core and stone coating deliver a Class A fire rating and Class 4 impact resistance that wood shake cannot approach.
Decra Shingle
Decra Shingle provides a traditional asphalt shingle appearance in a stone coated steel panel that dramatically outperforms the material it resembles—delivering two to three times the lifespan and far superior storm resistance.
Decra Shingle XD
Decra Shingle XD features an enhanced profile with increased dimensional relief for a more premium, high-definition shingle appearance with deeper shadow lines and thicker visual profile.
Decra Villa Tile
Decra Villa Tile replicates Mediterranean clay barrel tile at dramatically lower weight than genuine tile — an excellent choice for Austin homes with Spanish Colonial or Mediterranean architectural styles where genuine clay tile roofing would require significant structural reinforcement.
Decra Tile
Decra Tile offers a flat tile profile suited to contemporary and transitional architectural styles where a more restrained tile aesthetic is preferred over dramatic barrel profiles.
Why Decra Performs in Austin’s Climate
Hail Impact Resistance
All Decra products achieve UL 2218 Class 4 impact ratings—the highest classification available. In Austin’s active hail corridor, this provides meaningful protection against hail events that regularly damage conventional roofing, and many Texas insurance carriers offer premium discounts for Class 4 rated systems. Our hail damage assessment team can evaluate your current roof if you’re making a replacement decision following a hail event.
Wind and UV Performance
Decra systems are tested and warranted for wind resistance up to 120 mph. The interlocking panel design distributes wind uplift forces across the roof structure during severe storm events. For any wind-related damage, our wind damage repair expertise covers Decra systems specifically. Decra’s acrylic-bonded stone granule surface resists UV degradation far more effectively than organic roofing materials, maintaining color stability across the 50-year design life.
Fire Resistance
All Decra products achieve Class A fire ratings, providing the highest residential fire protection—which is especially relevant for Austin-area properties in or near wildland-urban interface areas.
Installation Process
Certified Decra installation follows manufacturer specifications that differ meaningfully from conventional roofing installation. We begin with a comprehensive roof inspection identifying any deck damage, drainage issues, or structural considerations requiring attention before installation begins. Our certified technicians ensure every aspect of the installation—including substrate preparation, panel layout, fastening patterns, and flashing integration—meets Decra’s requirements for full warranty activation.
Decra vs. Competing Stone Coated Steel Products
As the original stone coated steel manufacturer with the longest track record in the category, Decra occupies a premium position in the stone coated steel market. Competing products from manufacturers like Tilcor offer comparable performance in many applications and may suit specific project requirements or budget parameters. Our team provides honest, product-neutral comparisons to help you find the right fit.
