Why Choosing Asphalt Shingles is a Good Way to Go
Asphalt shingles are probably the most popular roofing material installed in the United States. They are incredibly durable and hardy in the sun, heat, and rain. Utilizing these shingles on Phoenix roofs provides assurances and peace of mind through warranties directly from their manufacturer, as well as our contractors. Whether you need to install, replace, or repair your home or business shingles, give us a call! Our team at Geo Roofing offers the experience and reliability people trust.
What You Need to Know About Asphalt Shingles
As roofing contractors, we know the best brands and the longest-lasting roofing materials. We also guarantee each of our services, so you can rest assured that your roof installation or repair has been built to last. With asphalt roof shingles, each one consists of a core material (cellulose fibers or fiberglass mat), a top and a bottom layer of asphalt, and then is coated with colored mineral granules for the surface coating.
When it comes to asphalt shingling, all styles are relatively easy and inexpensive to install and come in a wide variety of colors and styles. Depending on the type of shingle you choose, it can last anywhere from 15 to 30 years with regular inspections and maintenance, making it an obvious choice for homeowners everywhere.
The Types of Asphalt Shingles
3-Tab Shingles are a matte, non-dimensional option named for the number of tabs on each strip. Over the last decade, manufacturers have purposely phased out these shingles, limiting stock volumes to smaller repairs or partial roof replacements at a higher cost than their laminate replacements.
Laminated Shingles, also known as architectural shingles, offer more than protection to the building on which they are laid. They mimic the look of wood shake shingles and add dimension to an otherwise “flat” roof. These shingles are the result of gluing, or “laminating,” two shingles together, resulting in a thicker, longer-lasting shingle.
Designer Shingles, or luxury shingles, are a more expensive, high-performing, and long-lasting option for asphalt shingles. These shingles add to your home’s overall aesthetic appeal.
