When you think of a home, many elements come to mind—the rooms, walls, paint colors, brick, windows, and even the fancy door. But how often do you think about the roof? At Amstill Roofing, your trusted Houston roofing experts, roofs are all we think about.
As one of the most trusted roofing contractors in Houston, we understand how important the roof is to a home and how it protects the rest of the structure (the rooms, the walls, and everything in it). We know that a good roof makes the home. We also know that a beautiful roof gives that home a certain accent, a certain style.
There are plenty of choices of shingles to choose from at Amstill. One of those choices is Architectural Shingles. These shingles help beautify the home and provide a sense of elegance that surpasses the traditional type of shingles.
When homeowners or future homeowners in Houston think of elegant roofing shingles, they are thinking of wood or slate. Architectural shingles are very close to both because they can be made to look exactly like slate shingles or cedar wood shakes, except not nearly as expensive.
WHAT ARE ARCHITECTURAL SHINGLES MADE OF?
Architectural shingles provide a three-dimensional look as they are built thicker and with more dramatic designs. They are made of water-resistant asphalt and are composed of heavy fiberglass mat and ceramic-coated mineral granules.
This thick and strong shingle ensures an even better durability than traditional shingles. Architectural shingles typically provide a warranty of 50 years or more, compared to the warranties of approximately 30 to 50 years for laminate shingles and 20 to 30 years for 3-Tab Shingles.
A BEAUTIFUL AND DURABLE ROOF
We’ve all heard the saying about being thankful for a roof over our heads—but how strong is your roof, really? Upgrading to architectural shingles significantly boosts your roof’s strength, providing enhanced protection against storm damage.
In addition to their durability, architectural shingles bring timeless beauty to your home. With styles that mimic the elegance of wood shakes or slate shingles, they offer a perfect blend of strength and sophistication.
