Types of Asphalt Roofing Shingles

Apr 18

There are many different kinds of asphalt shingles on the market. You can choose from three-tab shingles, impact-resistant shingles, or luxury shingles. All these types have their benefits and disadvantages. Here, we'll discuss the differences between each one. Depending on your needs, you can choose any one of them. You can also choose from colors and styles. In this article, we'll go over the benefits and disadvantages of each type of shingle.

 Roofing Shingles

3-tab shingles

Three-tab asphalt roofing shingles are the most common type of shingles used for residential roofing in the United States. They have three horizontal asphalt tabs along the lower edge of each shingle, making them fit together like a puzzle. The three tabs are evenly spaced. These shingles are inexpensive and easy to install. However, they do not have the aesthetic appeal of other shingles and will need to be replaced within ten to fifteen years of installation.

Regardless of their aesthetic appeal, architectural shingles are often more expensive than 3-tab shingles. However, these are still inexpensive compared to other kinds of roofing materials. While 3-tab shingles can protect your home well, you may find it difficult to afford architectural shingles. While 3-tab shingles can still protect your property, they don't offer the same long-term value. Architectural shingles are multi-layered and can withstand 130 mph winds. Some manufacturers offer 50-year warranties for their architectural shingle roofing systems.

Dimensional shingles

Most homeowners who want a new roof will choose dimensional asphalt shingles, also called architectural laminate shingles. These shingles are the most popular type of asphalt shingles on the market today. In 2010, dimensional asphalt shingles accounted for almost three-quarters of asphalt roofing sales. This trend is expected to continue through 2017 and many manufacturers now offer a warranty of thirty years on their products. Dimensional asphalt shingles cost approximately $3-$5 per square foot.

Dimensional asphalt shingles come in three main types. Basic dimensional shingles have a single layer of material and are of equal thickness throughout. Standard dimensional shingles have square edges. If you want a layered look for your roof, the square edge dimensional shingles may be the best option. Both types of dimensional shingles are available in a variety of colors. Each type has unique benefits, and you should choose the one that best matches your home and its aesthetics.

Luxury shingles

If you're looking for the ultimate roof protection, consider installing luxury asphalt shingles on your roof. These unique roof tiles are made to replicate the rich look and feel of traditional shingles while offering state-of-the-art technology and durability. They are laminated to imitate slate and shake roofs and are licensed for professional installation. For added peace of mind, these luxury asphalt shingles are available from a licensed roofing contractor. Their products are backed by lifetime warranties to prevent leaks and damage to your roof.

While all asphalt roofing shingles will come with the same impact rating, there are some differences between the two. For example, a luxury asphalt shingle will have a higher impact resistance than standard asphalt shingle. Additionally, it will have better UV-ray reflectivity. This makes luxury asphalt shingles the superior option for protecting your home from the harmful effects of UV rays. These roofs will also last longer, with an estimated 50-year lifespan.

Impact-resistant shingles

There are many types of shingles that can withstand hail damage. Impact-resistant shingles are among the toughest types of shingles available. The impact resistance of these shingles is tested through a test known as UL 2218. During the test, a two-inch steel ball is dropped from 20 feet on the shingle. In order to receive a high impact resistance rating, the shingle must withstand two impacts, with no cracks or other signs of material compromise. Impact-resistant shingles reduce the chances of the backing of the shingle breaking off, and decrease the likelihood of water entering the home's interior.

These shingles are durable and resistant to high winds, fire, and snow. GAF's shingles have a granule-like structure that increases their toughness and granule adhesion. They are designed to withstand long-term exposure to sunlight, heavy rain, and winds as high as 150 mph. Proper maintenance is important for extending the life of asphalt shingles and reducing leaks. However, impact-resistant asphalt shingles may not be the best choice for everyone.
