What Do We Offer?
Types of Roof Shingles
When it comes to quality asphalt shingles, we offer several varieties to meet your budgetary needs and your home’s needs. From strip shingles to dimensional shingles to luxury shingles, we can do it all! We offer a wide variety of colors to match your home. We’ll work with you to choose the best shingle that will determine your roof’s performance, longevity, and look.
Strip Shingles
Strip shingles are also commonly referred to as 3-tab shingles due to the cut of the shingle. These shingles are the original and most basic type of asphalt shingles. They’re made from a single layer of asphalt and have a remarkably flat look that can create a slate-like appearance for your roof. As they’re made with only one layer of asphalt, they typically weigh and cost less than most other types of shingles. We have a wide variety of colors that can match the look of practically any home’s color scheme. This is the perfect shingle for homeowners looking for an inexpensive roof or roofing replacement.
Dimensional Shingles
These shingles are also known as architectural or laminate shingles. These are the most common asphalt shingles on the market today. This kind of shingle is made using two or more layers of asphalt fused to create a thicker, multi-dimensional look. Dimensional shingles are made to mimic the wood shake and natural slate roofing appearances. These shingles are usually heavier than strip shingles and can last longer before needing to be replaced. Our company offers a broad array of colors and color combinations that can be used to make your house your own!
Luxury Shingles
Luxury shingles are the highest quality asphalt shingle on the market. They offer a beautiful look and higher performance that outclasses many other types of shingles. Aside from being the heaviest of the asphalt shingles, they provide advanced protection from weathering and longer lifespans. Despite their higher price, luxury shingles are still more affordable than a cedar or slate roofing system. Luxury shingles offer a stunning look with the highest quality, coloration, and dimensionality of any shingle. No matter the design or architectural style of your home, we have a luxury shingle that can compliment your house and keep it looking attractive. Our team is proud to offer the installation of these premium shingles that will give your home years of worry-free use!

Signs That You Need to Replace Your Roof
No one wants to have to replace their roof. However, it’s something that every homeowner will have to deal with at some point. A bad roof can cause all sorts of problems for your house. Below are some signs that you can look out for to help you determine when to replace your roof before it starts causing problems in your home!
Shingle Damage & Wear
The easiest way to check if you need a new roof is to simply look at the shingles. If you notice your shingles are cracking or curling up, they’re nearing the end of their lifespan. Keep an eye out for missing shingles too. If you see that you have some missing shingles scattered across your roof, you likely need to replace it. Lastly, if your gutters are full of granules, it means the asphalt on your shingles is wearing away.
Moss on Your Roof
Many people look at moss as a quaint quality that makes your house look like something out of a fairy tale. However, this can hint at more severe damage. Moss naturally absorbs water and holds it. The point of your shingles is to allow water to roll off of your roof. If you notice moss on the roof, there could be water damage or mold underneath your shingles. Have the moss cleaned up and check for permanent damage.
Leaks
A roof leak is a sure sign that your roof is needing to be replaced. Roof leaks can occur for several different reasons. Whether it’s missing shingles, sitting water, or physical damage that caused the leak, it can lead to more expensive repairs than just having your roof replaced. If you notice a leak in your roof, you need to have it inspected for the full damage it may have caused and then have your roof replaced.
The Age of Your Roof
One factor that many homeowners don’t consider before it’s too late is the age of their roof. This isn’t as obvious as a warning sign, but it’s essential to keep in mind as your house ages. Usually, a roof that’s at least 20 years old can benefit from replacement with updated materials. Most asphalt shingles are designed to last roughly 20 years, so once your roof hits that age, consider replacing it to prevent leaks and other problems.
The Benefits of Replacing Your Old Roof
Replacing your roof can fix a lot of problems, from the way it looks to stopping leaks. However, there’s more benefits to gain from replacing your roof!
- Increased Property Value – Replacing a worn-out roof will increase the value of your home and make it easier to sell.
- Return on Investment (ROI) – A new roof has one of the best returns on investments available, averaging around 67% to %70.
- Energy Efficiency – An aged roof can leak air, causing your HVAC system to work harder to lower or raise the temperature in your house. Whereas a new roof will allow it to work more efficiently, saving you money on your monthly energy bill!
- Healthier Home Environment – Replacing your roof can help prevent health hazards, such as mold and mildew, that are known to build up on an old roof.
- Improved Safety – The longer you put off replacing your old, worn roof, the more dangerous it can become. A worn roof can actually cause part of your home to become unstable or even collapse in some cases.
- Updated Materials – Roofs are designed to last for decades. Investing in a roof replacement will allow you to take advantage of the newer, updated materials that will make your roof more effective and have higher performance.
- New Look – A new roof can be the perfect opportunity to give your house a makeover! With the endless styles and colors available today, you can design a new roof to match your style and your home.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the benefits of asphalt shingles?
Asphalt shingles offer a wide variety of benefits to homeowners. These shingles perform well in extreme temperatures and in high wind, excessive water, and prevalent ice. These cost-efficient shingles offer a low application cost that provides customers with a higher value that’s challenging for other materials to compete with. Asphalt shingles require little to no maintenance when appropriately applied. These are also considered the most straightforward shingles to apply, which can result in lower installation costs. In addition to these shingles’ durability and longevity, they’re highly resistant to fire, providing the highest fire resistance of any shingle.
How long will my asphalt shingle roof last?
The lifespan of your asphalt shingle roof is dependant on a few factors. These factors include climate and weather conditions, such as snow, hail, and high winds, that can cut any roof’s lifespan. A standard asphalt shingle roof should last approximately 20 years before needing to be replaced in most cases.
How long will it take to replace my roof?
How long it takes to replace your old roof depends on several factors, including the size of your roof, the pitch of your roof, and whether you have an existing layer of shingles that needs to be removed for your new roof to function properly. When we need to tear off a current layer of shingles, it can add a little more time to the process. On average, a full replacement, including removing existing shingles, typically takes around three to four days to complete. This time frame will be shortened if you’re having us install a new layer of shingles over your existing roof.
