Asphalt shingles are durable, impact-resistant, and easy to install. Best of all, they’re one of the most cost-effective roofing materials on the market today.

Architectural Shingles
Architectural shingles are thicker, heavier, and more durable than three-tab shingles, offering a lifetime warranty. They offer a more “dimensional look” because they come in various sizes and shapes. When properly installed by a roofer, architectural shingles can increase the value of your home or other structure.
High Definition Shingles Provide “High Definition” color blends and enhanced shadow effect.
These shingles also promote safety, with a Class A fire rating from Underwriters Laboratories, the highest rating possible.
Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Asphalt shingles are widely used because they offer many style and color choices, work with a broad range of homes, and are available in different product and warranty levels. Performance varies by shingle line and roofing system, so the best choice should consider the home's roof design, local exposure, budget, and manufacturer requirements.
There is no single lifespan that applies to every asphalt shingle roof. Service life depends on the specific product, installation quality, ventilation, roof slope, weather exposure, maintenance, and whether the roof has experienced storm damage. Use the manufacturer's warranty and product documentation as a reference, but evaluate the actual roof condition when deciding whether repair or replacement is needed.
Often, yes. If damage is limited to a small area and the surrounding roof is in good condition, replacing or repairing individual shingles may be appropriate. If damage is widespread, the roof has recurring leaks, or compatible replacement materials are difficult to match, a larger repair or replacement may make more sense after inspection.
Major cost factors include roof size, slope and complexity, tear-off requirements, the number of existing layers, decking repairs, shingle product, flashing and ventilation work, access, and disposal. A written estimate should identify the roofing system and scope rather than relying only on a price per square.
Compare the full roofing system, not just color or an advertised warranty term. Ask about the shingle line, underlayment, ice-and-water protection, ventilation, flashing details, manufacturer requirements, workmanship coverage, and what conditions apply to each warranty.
