Asphalt Shingle Roofing

Architectural asphalt shingles are the most common roof on Michigan homes for good reason. We'll help you choose the right product, color, and system.

Asphalt shingles cover most homes in Michigan. They handle the climate well, come in a wide range of colors and profiles, and suit everything from a ranch to a large custom home.

The shingle you see from the street is only part of a roof. What’s underneath — the underlayment, flashing at walls and chimneys, and the ventilation that keeps your attic from trapping heat and moisture — has a big effect on how well your roof performs and how long it lasts. We look at the whole system when we recommend a roof.

Choosing your shingle

We’ll help you weigh appearance, product line, and budget, and we’ll explain what you’re actually getting with each option. Your estimate will list the specific products we plan to use.

Asphalt shingle roofing questions

What's the difference between architectural and 3-tab shingles?

Architectural (also called dimensional or laminate) shingles are thicker, with a layered look that adds depth to the roof. 3-tab shingles are flatter and thinner. Most homeowners today choose architectural shingles for their appearance and durability.

How do I choose a shingle color?

Look at your brick, siding, trim, and the homes around you. We can bring samples and help you see colors in daylight against your home, which looks different from a brochure.

How long do asphalt shingles last?

It varies with the product, ventilation, installation, and weather exposure. Your manufacturer's warranty documentation will state the coverage for the specific shingle you choose.
