Would Malarkey shingles survive a solar-powered zombie apocalypse?

Picture this: it’s 2032, the grid’s down, zombies are everywhere, and you’re holed up in your house with a roof full of Malarkey shingles and a shiny new set of solar panels. But… do those shingles actually hold up with all that extra weight and hardware? Or do they start cracking under pressure (literally)? I’ve heard mixed things about how well they work with solar installs, especially after a few years of wild weather. Anyone want to pick up the story from here—maybe your panels saved you from a zombie horde, or maybe your roof caved in at the worst possible moment?

Yeah, drilling into any shingle roof for solar is always a gamble, no matter the brand. I’ve seen Malarkey hold up better than some, but water’s sneaky—especially after a rough winter. Those rail-less systems are interesting...less to go wrong, in theory. Still, I’d trust a good installer over just fancy hardware any day.
