Shingle Roofing

Benefits of Asphalt Shingle Roofs

Shingle roofs are an economical and visually pleasing roofing option that have a long lifespan. Besides a wide variety of styles and colors, their fire rating is among the best and are still a low-cost option that also comes with low maintenance needs.

Asphalt shingles are the most popular choice for roofing for a multitude of reasons. Firstly, their low cost makes them the most economic option compared to other roofing materials. Despite their affordability, they offer a long lifespan, typically lasting 25 years or longer depending on the type of shingles chosen. Another significant advantage is the wide variety of colors available, ranging from basic black to bright red, ensuring there is an option to meet any design preference.

In addition to their aesthetic and economic benefits, asphalt shingles are also highly practical. They are resistant to wind and perform well under most strong wind conditions. Their high fire resistance adds another layer of safety for homeowners. Moreover, asphalt shingles are lightweight, meaning they can be applied to most roofs without the need for additional engineering, unlike heavier materials such as tile.

What Makes Up an Asphalt Shingle?

Surface / Granulated Layer - This is the portion of the shingle that is visible when the roof is complete. It provides the color of the roof as well as offers UV protection to the shingle, allowing it to last longer. This layer can also prevent heat from getting through to the structure of the house, keeping the house cooler.

Asphalt Layer - This is what provides for a waterproof roof, protecting the home from water’s damage. This is also where most of the weight of the shingle comes from.

Base Layer - The base is the frame, or, put another way, the part that provides the structure of the shingle. Most shingles today are fiberglass, and it is the base where you can find the fiberglass. This layer is what holds the whole shingle together.

Adhesive Strip - If you look at a shingle before it is installed, you will see what looks like a dotted line on it. This is adhesive and it holds the shingle above from rising with the wind.

Nailing Strip - Simply put, this is the area where the shingle must be nailed down.
