Luxury Shingle Roofing
Behind the familiar look is a layered construction, and each part has a job to do. Granule loss is the clearest sign that a shingle is wearing out, and the granules end up in the gutters.
Flat shingles of this style are economical but wear out sooner than thicker kinds, so many homeowners compare it with thicker lines. Most new roofs on houses today use architectural shingles, which look richer and resist wind better, and the thicker body stands up better to sun. Higher grades cost more, and the look is the main reason to pay for them, so the roof feels more substantial.
