Asphalt Shingle Roofing

Durable & Cost-Effective Roofing

Asphalt shingles are one of North America's most preferred roofing materials, known for their affordability, durability, and wide range of styles and colours. Shingles are installed by layering them from the bottom edge of the roof to the top. Each shingle overlaps the one beneath it, creating a watertight barrier. Whether repair or replacement, asphalt shingles are a practical and attractive solution.

Architectural Shingles

These shingles are thicker and offer more dimension and texture than three-tab shingles. Architectural shingles provide a more dimensional, layered look, enhancing curb appeal. They are more durable and typically last between 30-50 years.
