If you are considering replacing your aging or damaged roof then you are probably wondering what kind of roof to put your money into. With so many options and different price points, it can seem a bit baffling. As a West Hartford Roofer, we feel it is best to get educated about the two most popular and affordable types of roofing materials we install.
Three-Tab Shingles
Traditional asphalt 3-tab shingles are the most common type of shingle on the market today, as they provide a cost-effective solution in a plethora of color options and styles. With a lifespan of roughly 20 years, asphalt shingles are an excellent option for the homeowner going for a low profile, economical roofing solution. Nevertheless, if you want to give an architectural look to your home, an asphalt roof replacement with a West Hartford Roofing pro may not be the right route to go.
Architectural Shingles
Gaining more admiration for their three-dimensional depth and thicker laminated construction, affordability, and durability are architectural or laminated shingles. Most come with anti-stain and algae coatings to add further protection and will not fade from UV deterioration. With remarkable warranties up to 50 years and wind classes up to 130 mph, this roofing material is an excellent selection and usually costs around 20% more than conventional 3-tab asphalt shingles.
