Fiberglass

Shingles are made from fiberglass which makes them great for fire and moisture resistant. Shingles are then impregnated with asphalt and coated with mineral granules and copper to deflect UV Rays.

This may be a personal preference, but the important thing to remember is how many choices of composition shingles are available. We only install thicker laminated “architectural” shingles for best look.

Roofing shingles

STRIP SHINGLES

Also known as 3-tab shingles (due to the cut of the shingle) or simply strips, strip shingles are the original and most basic asphalt shingles. They are made from a single layer of asphalt and have a very flat appearance that typically offers a slate look. Since they are made from a single layer, they generally weigh and cost less than other asphalt shingles. Prior to designer shingles being introduced in the 1980s, strip shingles were the predominant roofing shingle in the market. Today, strip shingles are used most often used by home builders that manufacture inexpensive homes, or by homeowners who are replacing roofing shingles on residences that already have strip shingles on the roof.

DIMENSIONAL SHINGLES

Also known as architectural or laminate shingles, dimensional shingles are the most prevalent asphalt shingles.

These products are manufactured with two or more layers of asphalt that are fused together for a thicker and richer multi-dimensional appearance, and are engineered to replicate the wood shake and natural slate roofing aesthetics.

Dimensional shingles are typically heavier than strip shingles, and have improved warranty protection.
