Architectural Shingles
Architectural shingles come in varying sizes and shapes giving them a dimensional look. They are about 50% thicker than a traditional three-tab shingle and therefore heavier granting them greater wind resistance. They can contain unique cutouts or no cutouts at all, and their lower portions are laminated with an additional asphalt layer. This creates the contoured, dimensional look that makes them aesthetically pleasing. Asphalt sealant bonds the layers, reinforcing the shingles’ waterproof capability. But, are architectural shingles worth the cost? An architectural shingle roof will have a longer life and warranty than a three-tab shingle. They can also increase the value of your home.
Three-Tab Shingles
Three-tab shingles are distinguished by cutouts—tabs—made along their long lower edge. The resulting profile creates the illusion that each shingle is three separate pieces when installed, however it is only one. Three-tab shingles have been in the market for a long time, and remain one of the most economical and popular selections for residential roofing across the country. The Home Exteriors by Baker team has a surplus of experience working with three-tab shingles and ensuring a quality installation on every home. We will guide you through selecting decking that will best reinforce your three-tab shingle.
