For greater protection and
beauty, consider Architectural Shingles.
Architectural shingles give a roof more "texture" due to
additional tabs that are attached (laminated) to each shingle.
Architectural shingles come with 30-Year, 40-Year or Lifetime
warranties, depending on the thickness of their construction.
Wind warranties range from 70 to 110 m.p.h.
A new development in Composition Shingles is the "Impact-Resistant" Shingle.
Designed with hail protection in mind, Impact-Resistant
Shingles are constructed specially to quality for a UL Class 4
rating, the highest available in roofing products.
Most homeowners insurance companies offer discounts for homes
with this type of roof.
The main drawback to Composition Shingles is their limited
life expectancy. Heat,
strong sunlight, poor attic ventilation and severe weather,
conditions that are common in our area, reduce the service life of
Composition Shingles.
