Not only are Asphalt Shingles easy to install, but they are also a relatively inexpensive material and are therefore widely available throughout the US. As they vary in colors and styles, your roof can easily match your home and give it a stunning new appearance without putting a big dent in your budget.

Asphalt Shingles are divided into 3 major categories, each with its own unique appearance and distinctive style. Strip Shingles, also known as 3-tab shingles are the most basic and original type of shingles. They are a single layer and are therefore cheaper, flatter looking, and very lightweight. Dimensional Shingles, also known as laminate shingles, are manufactured with at least two layers of asphalt fused together to achieve a thicker, multi-dimensional appearance. They are typically engineered to mimic wood for aesthetic purposes and are heavier than Strip Shingles due to the multiple layers of asphalt. The last and most expensive type of shingles is Luxury Shingles. They are the highest-quality laminated shingles available as they offer an appealing look and have better functionality than Dimensional Shingles.
