Asphalt Shingle Roofing

Durable & Cost-Effective Roofing

Asphalt shingles are one of the most popular roofing materials in North America, known for their affordability, durability, and wide range of styles and colors. Shingles are installed by layering them from the bottom edge of the roof to the top. Each shingle overlaps the one below it, creating a watertight barrier. Whether you're building a new home or replacing an old roof, asphalt shingles offer a practical and attractive solution.

These shingles are thicker, offer more dimension and textured 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.
