Asphalt Shingles

Asphalt shingles  are a type of roofing material made from asphalt-impregnated fiberglass or organic material. They are commonly used in residential roofing applications due to their affordability, ease of installation, and wide range of styles and colors.

 

Asphalt shingles come in two main varieties: fiberglass and organic. Fiberglass shingles are lighter and more fire-resistant, while organic shingles are thicker and more durable. They are typically installed using nails or staples and can be used on a range of roof slopes.

 

Asphalt shingles are known for their low cost and relatively short lifespan of 15-30 years depending on the quality of the shingles and the local climate. However, they are easy to repair or replace and are widely available at most home improvement stores. Additionally, asphalt shingles are available in a range of styles, including three-tab, architectural, and designer, allowing homeowners to choose a look that suits their aesthetic preferences.
