These shingles use a layering system where two layers are bonded together with a special sealant that appears thicker than a traditional 3-tab shingle. These shingles have a life expectancy of 30 years or more and have become more popular with new home construction over the years. They offer a wide variety of colors and textures, which gives the home or business owner many options.

Luxury asphalt shingles can give you a look you want at a fraction of the cost as putting on the real thing. These types of shingles typically weigh up to 3 times as much as traditional 3-tab shingles per square and are more durable. These shingles also last on average of 30 years, which is very appealing when deciding on which shingle to go with. Organic Shingles Organic asphalt shingles have seen a recent rise in popularity due to their eco-friendly nature. They are constructed out of recycled felt paper, which is soaked in asphalt for the waterproofing effect. They are then embedded with ceramic granules and coated with adhesive asphalt. These shingles typically last between 20 years, barring any damage from thunderstorms or high winds. Fiberglass shingles Fiberglass shingles are another "green" option for home and business owners looking for a more eco-friendly shingle. Fiberglass shingles are constructed by having a woven fiberglass base with an added waterproof asphalt coating. They are then coated with ceramic granules to protect and shield them from the sun's ultraviolet rays. Fiberglass shingles have less asphalt than organic shingles, so they weigh less but are more durable and last longer. |
