Hammond Premium Roofing provides professional asphalt shingle roofs in Hammond, IN for residential and commercial properties across the Calumet Region. Asphalt is the right roof for almost every house in this city, so the only real question is how far up the product range you ought to go. Our answer is usually less far than the sample board suggests. The product range matters less than the details.
A modern architectural laminate at a five and five-eighths exposure, nailed correctly in the common bond area, will outlast the flashings and fasteners around it on a typical Hammond roof. Designer profiles and heavyweight lines buy you a look and a longer prorated warranty, and neither of those is what limits the life of a roof in an industrial airshed. Spend the difference on flashing and edge metal instead.
One upgrade is worth the money here, and it is a cheap one. Shingles with copper-bearing granules resist the dark streaking that homeowners in this region assume is dirt off the mills. Sometimes it is deposit and rinses away. Often it is a roof algae that lives on the limestone filler in a shingle, and copper in the granule holds it back for the better part of a decade. It costs a few dollars a square.
Color is a practical decision, not a taste decision. Very light roofs show settled deposit within a single season, and homeowners then wash them too aggressively, which strips granules faster than the weather ever would. Mid-tone weathered grays and browns hide the airshed, keep their appearance between cleanings, and still read as a new roof from the street. Ask to see a weathered sample rather than a fresh one.
Nailing is where cheap crews save money and where roofs fail. We hand-nail or run pressure-regulated guns set to seat the head flush without cutting the mat, place every fastener in the nailing strip rather than above it, and use six nails per shingle on any elevation facing an open run. All of that is checkable from a ladder, and we invite you to check it before we load the trailer. Ask for six.
Cold-weather installs get hand-sealed tabs at the rakes, eaves, ridges and valleys rather than a promise about spring sun. A shingle that never bonded is a shingle waiting for a March wind off the lake, and this is not a market where you get to skip that step and stay lucky for long. We hand-seal every winter install as standard practice, and it never appears as an extra line on your estimate.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — aluminum-substrate standing seam with a PVDF finish, copper-bearing shingle granules, low-pressure roof washing with a neutral detergent, coating adhesion patches pulled at seventy-two hours, tempered glass skylight units set on site-built curbs, 0.032 aluminum drip edge and valley pan — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Hammond and nearby communities including Munster, Highland, Griffith, Whiting.

Materials, equipment and how we do asphalt shingle roofs
The difference between asphalt shingle roofs that lasts and asphalt shingle roofs that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with aluminum-substrate standing seam with a PVDF finish, copper-bearing shingle granules, low-pressure roof washing with a neutral detergent, coating adhesion patches pulled at seventy-two hours, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Hammond job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the Calumet Region means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Hammond Chooses Hammond Premium Roofing
- ✓We wash a test area before we judge a roof, because reading granule loss or bruising through settled industrial deposit is guesswork and guesswork replaces roofs five years early.
- ✓We read the finish warranty's exclusion clause out loud before you buy a metal roof, since the premium coatings exclude locations exposed to fallout, ash and corrosive fumes.
- ✓Every exposed component we install is aluminum rather than steel, and we will show you the corroded steel we pulled off the last house instead of arguing the point.
- ✓Replacement decking is priced at a signed rate per sheet before anybody starts the tear-off, which matters on a stock where most houses predate modern sheathing panels.
