Architectural Shingles
Architectural shingles are more three dimensional than 3-Tab shingles, giving your property a more unique look and a nice curb appeal. These shingles can raise your property value which is always an added bonus. They also weigh more with a thicker base, and a higher wind resistance, giving you a more durable, long lasting roof in the long-term.
Architectural shingles, also known as dimensional or laminate shingles, provide a visually appealing and durable roofing option. Their three-dimensional design enhances curb appeal, potentially increasing property value. These shingles have a thicker base, offering better resistance to wind and severe weather conditions. This durability leads to a longer lifespan, reducing maintenance and replacement costs over time. With a wide range of styles and colors available, architectural shingles allow homeowners to achieve their desired look while ensuring long-term protection for their homes.
3-Tab (Strip Shingles)
Three tab shingles are the most common shingle type among homeowners. The 3-tab shingle system is much more cost effective than Architectural shingles with a uniform look. These shingles can last anywhere from 10 to 25 years if taken care of properly.
3-Tab Shingles are a cost-effective roofing choice known for their simplicity and affordability. They feature a uniform appearance with three evenly spaced tabs. Their lifespan typically ranges from 10 to 25 years, depending on maintenance. While they offer budget-friendly roofing, they may be less durable in extreme weather conditions compared to other options like architectural shingles or metal roofing.
Both shingle types are integral to the diverse roofing solutions offered by Standard Roofing LLC.
