Asphalt Shingled Roof

Asphalt Shingles
​

​           Sloped roofs are designed to shed water quickly and budget friendly asphalt shingles are their most popular choice of roofing material- the most affordable roofing option in the short term. Most families stay in their homes an average of 9 years so a budget friendly asphalt roof that’s rated to last 12 to 17 years works well for most families.
​
Asphalt shingles are manufactured in an almost limitless array of colors and patterns so there is no doubt that you can find one that will create a very attractive complement to your home or business. 

​ Asphalt shingles are either organic or fiberglass.

​Three styles of Asphalt shingles

3-Tab Shingles

Architectural Style Asphalt Shingle

Premium Style Shingles

The 3-Tab Asphalt Shingle
The most basic in style and least costly are the 3- Tab asphalt shingle. They are thinnest in composition and rated to resist uplifting in 60 to 70mph winds. Most product manufacturers will offer a 20 to 30-year warranty. These cost roughly $20 to $30 per bundle of shingles (material costs only). 

Architectural Style Asphalt Shingle
Architectural style asphalt shingle also known as a 3-dimensional asphalt shingle gives a 3-dimensional look to your roof, and some imitate the look of wood or slate shingles. They are thicker in composition, as compared to the basic 3-tab, and rated to resist uplifting in 110 to 130mph winds. Product manufactures usually offer a 30 to 50-year warranty.  They cost roughly $35 to $40 per bundle (material costs only). However, they need about 25% more material to cover the same area as 3-Tab shingles.

Premium Style Asphalt Shingle
Premium style asphalt shingles are unique in style and high in cost. Most premium shingles are rated to resist uplifting in 110 mph winds. Product manufactures offer a lifetime warranty which is a different number of years in each state.  They cost roughly $45 to $55 per bundle (material costs only). However, they need about 40% more material to cover the same area as 3-Tab shingles.

​Asphalt shingles are manufactured in an almost limitless array of colors and patterns so there is no doubt that you can find one that will create a very attractive complement to your home or business.
