Shingle roofing is the most popular roofing system property owners use to elevate the curb appeal and value of their homes or commercial establishment. Shingles are flat and rectangular-shaped, made from asphalt, composite, or other materials. In shingle roofing, shingles are installed in rows, starting from the roof's bottom edge and moving upwards toward the peak, overlapping to ensure complete coverage and superior protection from the elements and extreme weather.

Advantages of Shingle Roofing

Inexpensive:

Asphalt shingles are the most economical roofing materials available currently. Shingle roofing is a sound investment for property owners looking for a durable, high-performing, and budget-friendly roofing option.

Available in many colors and styles:

A shingle roofing is highly versatile. Shingles are available in many shapes, colors, and textures to complement any home style and match the desired aesthetics. Shingles work with most roof types, and as they are the most commonly used roofing material, blend with the neighboring homes.

Easy installation and repair:

Shingle roofs are easier to handle because they are lightweight. Qualified contractors are easy to find, and the project can be completed quickly, as the installation requires minimal prep work and no special tools. Shingles are also easier to repair or replace than alternative roofing systems.

Recyclable:

Shingle roofing is recyclable at the end of its useful life and prevents the waste from ending in landfills. It makes shingle roofing a sustainable option. Contractors use recycled shingles for various paving projects.

Types of Shingle Roofing We Offer:

There are three broad types of asphalt shingles to choose from when installing a new roof or reroofing. Each has its advantages and drawbacks. And, in addition to the style/design options, there are up to 20-25 different colors from which to choose. With such a wide range of available options, you are sure to find a perfect match.

3-TAB SHINGLES:

3-tab shingles are the most economical and commonly used in some areas. Despite their name, these shingles are a single base mat covered with mineral granules with three evenly-spaced cutouts at the bottom. The tabs make each shingle appear as if it were three distinct pieces when installed correctly. While they're not the most attractive option, 3-tab shingles can be installed quickly and last for decades

DIMENSIONAL OR ARCHITECTURAL SHINGLES:

Dimensional or architectural shingles are similar to 3-tab shingles because they're a single mat that appears like individual shingles. However, dimensional shingles are multi-layered, which adds an element of durability. Their main selling point is how much better they look than conventional 3-tab shingles. They're also much more durable by their very nature, and some offer warranties of up to 30 years. Unfortunately, they also carry a higher upfront cost of about 20% more than 3-tab shingles.

PREMIUM OR LUXURY SHINGLES:

Premium or luxury shingles are the third type, and they're designed to replicate natural roofs such as slate or cedar shake. They can faithfully reproduce the appearance of a roof costing several times their price. They're not ideal for every property since they're considerably heavier than 3-tab shingles, but if a home can bear the weight, they're more resistant to wind damage.

Signs a Shingle Roof Needs Replacement

  • Old age: A shingle roof needs replacement if it is more than 20 years old or shows other signs of wear and tear. Older roofs are more vulnerable to damage, and replacing them before they fail is best.

  • Multiple missing shingles: Another prominent sign of an impending shingle roof replacement is when many shingles are missing from different areas of the roof. It means that the shingles have weakened and are wearing out.

  • Curled or cupped shingles: When the shingles cup, curl, or claw, it is a warning sign that the shingle roof is approaching the end of its service life and needs replacement. These conditions can also develop due to improper ventilation, incorrect installation, or extreme temperatures.

  • Excessive granules in the gutter: Granules protect the shingles from sun damage. It is natural for a new roof to lose some granules, but an old roof losing significant amounts of granules is concerning. Noticing excessive granules in the gutter is a telltale sign that it is time for a new roof.
