Different Types Of Shingle Roofs

What type of roof do you have? If you're looking for a new roof, there are many different options to choose from. The most common roofs are asphalt shingles, metal, and flat roofs. Flat roofs are used where the pitch or slope is flat or nearly flat. Neither shingles nor metal are good for roof slopes lower than 0.5/12 (a half-inch of rise or less, per every 12 inches of run or horizontal surface). Asphalt shingles come in a variety of colors and styles that can match your home perfectly! Metal is an excellent choice if your home has steep pitches because it's lightweight and durable. There are many options available to you, and it's up to you to decide which you want for your home.

Asphalt Shingle Roofs

Asphalt shingles have a different style and thickness as their defining characteristics.  Modern Asphalt roofs us composition laminated shingles like fiberglass mat embedded with an asphalt compound.

3-Tab Shingle Roofs

Three-tab shingles are a classic, old-school design that really screams nostalgia. But these haven't been used much anymore and have gradually been replaced with more modern styles for the same cost! If you're not in need of an upgrade but want to keep your three-tab roof around out of admiration or respect, it's still possible to convert your current roof into architectural style shingles without breaking the bank.

Architectural Shingle Roofs

Some of the most common shingles that you can find being used now are architectural shingles, also known as laminated composite shingles. Architectural shingles have a staggered look to them, much like wood shake roofs do, but they come in a variety of different colors, which give a unique look that really pops!

Impact-Resistant Shingles

It is important to note that although these shingles are resistant or impervious, hail and other objects can damage even impact-resistant shingles. However, in our experience (having worked with them for years), insurance companies will not pay out on claims of this nature if impact-resistant shingles have shielded the roof from an object like a tree branch. Our opinion is that your money would be better saved as a deductible rather than paying extra for something you may never need; but some local contractors will try their best to sell it anyways!

Wind Rated Shingles

When it comes to wind, there are a variety of options: some shingles won't withstand strong winds and others can take the brunt. The Owens Corning Oakridge is an example since they resist up to 110 mph, but if you're in Springfield, MO, or near areas where straight-line winds exceed 100 miles per hour (such as during hurricanes), then your main concern will be something else entirely! The average homeowner might not have much concern about these types of weather events considering how infrequent they tend to happen, but it's always best for homeowners to know what rating their roof needs so as not to waste money on something more than necessary while also ensuring durability.

Other Designer Shingles

It’s time to find a new roof for your home. There are many different types of shingles available on the market, and Cook Roofing Company is ready to help you explore them all! For example, L-shaped ones with scallops or slate lookalikes. You won’t have any problems finding one that suits your tastes as they come at an affordable price too - just make sure you don't forget about these two important factors when choosing: color match and quality material.

How Do You Know If Your Shingle Roof Needs To Be Replaced?

If you have not replaced your roof in the past 15-20 years, it may be time. Most asphalt shingles will last between 15-25 years under optimal conditions. If your roof has had a lot of traffic, leaves, hail, or is poorly ventilated, it can wear out much faster. Most of Missouri has experienced 5-10 hail storms just over the past few years, and this tends to prompt roof replacements. Granules fall off, the asphalt becomes brittle and cracks, high winds can rip the mastic (black sticky stuff) seal apart and tear tabs off the shingle - especially on three-tab roofs. Whatever the reason your roof might be worn out, Cook Roofing Company has a plan to meet your needs - including financing. So call us for a free estimate today at 573-400-0307.

Can You Repair a Shingle Roof?

It depends. People often ask this question because either they see a shingle missing or insurance only paid to replace a couple of shingles. But a shingle roof is a roof system comprised of many components that stick together and seal out the weather. If you go and patch it - especially on an older, brittle roof - you can just cause more issues. Your best course of action is to call Cook Roofing Company for a free roof evaluation. We'll give you an honest and thorough estimate of the options you have for repairing or replacing your roof. If there's insurance involved, we'll help you understand the process of getting your roof replaced through insurance, and you should only be out of pocket for your deductible (we'd love to waive that, but that's illegal). Call us at 573-400-0307. We can even finance that deductible!

FAQ

Are Architectural Shingles Better than 3-Tab?
Well, that, of course, depends on your roofing preferences. If you want the cheapest option, then three-tab shingles are going to be the pick for you. However, if you're okay with the extra price, then there are a lot of reasons that architectural shingles will be the better choice for you. For instance, if you want a more durable and higher windproofed shingle for extra protection for your home, then architectural shingles are the better choice for you. Architectural shingles are almost twice as thick as three-tab shingles, and the windproof rating is twice as good at 120 mph. If you also want the flexibility to make your shingles look like a more premium material, architectural shingles have a multi-dimensional look and a unique composition to make that happen (for materials like cedar, slate, etc.).
What are Architectural Shingles?
Architectural shingles are a type of asphalt shingle. These shingles are often compared to the other type of asphalt shingle, three-tab shingles, but there are some key differences. Architectural shingles are almost twice as thick as three-tab shingles, making them more durable. They also have a unique look that gives them extra use; you can use the dimensional look to make these shingles look like other materials such as cedar and slate. Architectural shingles also weigh more than three-tab shingles, so they have a higher wind rating of around 80-120 mph.
Are Architectural Shingles Easier to Install?
Architectural shingles are easier to install than other types of shingles. Of asphalt shingles, architectural shingles are not easier to install than three-tab shingles. However, asphalt shingles, on the whole, are easier to install than other premium shingles. Because asphalt shingles are easy to install and have a relatively good density and windproof grade, they are the most popular shingles in use in North America.
