Around 70% of roofs in the U.S. have asphalt shingles on them. It is one of the most popular roof replacement options in the country. If you are considering this material, doing some research can help you determine if it is ideal for your home.
High-end dimensional or designer shingles are the best type of asphalt shingle roofing. This option is available in a wide variety of colors, styles, and shapes. Some manufacturers create designer shingles to resemble slate, clay, or wood shake. While it costs more than other types, it offers the highest ratings for wind, fire, and impact.
Also called laminated, dimensional shingles are today’s most popular in new roof installations. They come in various colors, making them ideal for any home style. These shingles also feature the highest levels of ratings for wind, fire, and impact. However, unlike designer shingles, they do not resemble slate or shake shingles. To make the most of the benefits, make sure to have your asphalt shingles installed by an experienced roofing contractor.
Despite being thin and costing less than the two earlier options, three-tab shingles can last for up to 30 years when maintained properly. Since they have cutouts running along their bottom edge, they cost less and are faster to install.
