Luxury Shingle Roofers

Most roofs on houses here wear shingles built from a glass-fiber core with an asphalt skin, and each part has a job to do. Granule loss is the clearest sign that a shingle is wearing out, so a handful of grit in a downspout tells a story.

Traditional three-tab shingles are a single flat layer cut into three tabs, and they are the lightest and plainest option, so many homeowners compare it with thicker lines. The extra layer adds weight and strength, and the cut pattern breaks up the lines, and the difference shows in the finished roof. Premium and luxury lines go further, with thicker laminates, deeper shadow lines and designer shapes, and the added weight is a benefit in wind.
