3-Tab Asphalt Shingle

The three-tab asphalt is a great choice if you are looking for something that’s affordable and does the job. Three-tab asphalt shingles are made of fiberglass and mineral granules. This gives them a variety of colors. They are available in sizes 12″ x 36″, and can withstand the elements up to 20 years. Although the three-tab asphalt shingles are an affordable option for homeowners, they lack the aesthetic appeal of higher-tier shingles. These shingles can also be subject to blow-off.

Dimensional Asphalt Shingle

These shingles are also known as architectural or laminated shingles. They have two layers of asphalt shingles that have been bonded together to create a three-dimensional effect. These shingles are strong and can last for up to 30 years. These shingles will cost you more than the three-tab asphalt shingles, but dimensional asphalt is the most popular choice. You have a wide range of color options when choosing dimensional asphalt shingles.

Luxury Asphalt Shingle

Luxury asphalt shingles can give your roof the look of high-end luxury roofing materials like cedar shake and slate. These shingles have a multi-dimensional texture that mimics the appearance of slate or shakes. Although luxury shingles are not suitable for all homes, the extra layers provide incredible strength and resistance to impact and tear.
