Hippo Roofing

HippoShield

HippoShield™
Cool Shingle Roof System

A Florida roof can hit 150°.Yours doesn’t have to.

The hottest surface you own sits over the rooms you pay to cool. Our HippoShield™ is built to reflect the sun’s energy instead of soaking it up, so your air conditioner is not fighting your roof all summer.

Cool under the sun. Tough in the storm.

Cool isn’t a color. It’s built in.
Seven colors to choose from. Every one of them engineered the same way.

The heat

Your air conditioner is the biggest line on your power bill. Your roof decides how hard it works.

50%+
of your power bill is the air conditioner.

“In most Florida homes, air conditioning accounts for approximately 50 percent or more of the annual electric bill.”

FPL also says it can run more than half your bill during peak cooling months. That is not a summer surprise. That is every Florida summer, for as long as you own the house.

How your roof shows up on that bill
STEP 1
The roof soaks it up
An ordinary shingle hits 150° on a summer afternoon.
STEP 2
The attic heats
That heat has one direction to go, and it is down.
STEP 3
The AC runs longer
It is not cooling your house. It is fighting your roof.
STEP 4
You pay for it
Every month. And the harder it runs, the sooner you buy another one.

You are replacing the roof anyway. The only question is whether the new one keeps making that bill worse.

The technology, in two parts

So we build a roof that fights back. Two ways.

1
Cooling granules
It sends the sun back.

Reflective granules bounce the sun off the roof instead of letting it soak into your attic. All seven colors. You do not have to pick a white roof to get a cool one.

2
Copper granules
And it stays that way.

Algae is dark, and a dark roof stops reflecting. 3M™ Scotchgard™ Protector puts copper in the granule, on the shingle and on the ridge cap. Algae cannot live on copper.

One makes the roof cool.
The other keeps it cool.

Take either one away and you do not have a HippoShield™.

What you actually get

Every HippoShield™ Roof. No packages, no upsells.

This is the whole list. It is the same roof for every customer.

☀️
Solar ventilation comes standard
Sunlight runs it. It pulls the trapped heat straight out of your attic. Nothing to wire. Nothing on your bill.
🪵
Rotten wood is on us
However much rotten decking we find, we replace it. Not three sheets, not five. Fascia and soffit quoted separately.
💰
The utility savings are yours
Your air conditioner is over half your power bill. A cooler roof gives it less heat to fight, so it runs less.
3M Scotchgard Protector shingle protector
No black streaks, ever.
Lifetime algae protection on the shingle and the ridge cap. No annual wash to keep it.
💳
A new wind mitigation report, on us
We hand you a new wind mitigation report after the install. The Secondary Water Resistance credit takes a full peel-and-stick deck, so ask for it. Then ask your carrier what it saves you.
📜
50 years of coverage
Non-prorated for fifty years: shingles, labor, tear-off and disposal. Year forty pays like year one. We file the registration.
🌪
It holds in a Florida storm
130 mph wind limited warranty. Double sealant lines. Class 3 impact rating.

We will move heaven and earth to make it right
Our lifetime labor guarantee sits on top of the manufacturer paper, and it transfers once when you sell.
The HippoShield™ streak guarantee

Guaranteed not to streak, for as long as you own the home.

Not ten years. Not fifteen. And no annual wash to keep it.

One roof, half with ordinary shingles showing black algae streaks and half with 3M Scotchgard Protector shingles still clean

Ordinary shingle
With 3M™ Scotchgard™
One roof. One house. Same years. Nobody cleaned either side. Photograph supplied by the shingle manufacturer.
We install both halves. Scotchgard™ shingle and the matching Scotchgard™ ridge cap. The warranty requires both. We never sell the cap as an upgrade.
We register it. Inside the deadline, certificate in your file. A warranty nobody registered is not a warranty.
Streaks cost you twice. A dark roof stops reflecting, and it reads as a worn-out roof to every buyer and inspector.
Copper is not the whole story

Do not just ask if it has copper. Ask how much. Then ask for how long.

Most premium shingles use copper-containing granules to fight algae, so when another roofer says their shingles have copper too, they are probably right. That is not the question that matters. What matters is how much copper protection is built into the roof, and how long that protection is backed. We do not want you to take our word for it. We want you to know what to ask.

Question one
How much copper, and where?
Ours is published. 3M™ Scotchgard™ Protector is a licensed program with a written spec: a minimum 10% blend of copper-containing granules, distributed across the whole shingle and the hip and ridge cap, verified by third-party testing.

An in-house, “proprietary” algae treatment publishes no percentage at all. There is no number to compare, which is the point.

Question two
How long does it last?
Ours does not expire. The algae coverage on a HippoShield™ is lifetime, for as long as you own the home.

The big national brands warrant their algae protection for a term of years. Ten, twenty-five, thirty. Good terms. But a Florida roof lasts longer than the warranty on the thing keeping it clean, and the year it runs out is the year the streaks stop being anybody’s fault but yours.
