Asphalt Shingle Roofing

Asphalt shingle roofing offers reliable protection for residential roofs. Three-tab shingles provide a lightweight, fast-to-install option with a service life of about 15 to 18 years. Architectural shingles offer a thicker look and last about 24 to 30 years for longer durability.

FCH Roofing Pros installs and repairs asphalt shingles across the cities we serve. We handle roof replacements, inspections, and repairs with attention to detail. Our team ensures proper permits and inspections are obtained for full replacements.

Who uses it

Typical Asphalt Shingle Roofing projects

Residential Re-Roofs

Ideal for budget-conscious homeowners, three-tab shingles suit simple gable roofs and rental properties. Architectural shingles fit full replacements seeking longer service life and better wind resistance, making them suitable for varied residential roofing needs in many neighborhoods.

Roof Repairs

Quick repairs on damaged or curling shingles restore protection and extend roof life. Matching three-tab shingles is straightforward; architectural shingle repairs may vary in color and texture, requiring careful selection to blend with existing materials.

Wind Resistance

Architectural shingles provide better resistance to strong winds compared to three-tab options, making them suitable for areas with challenging weather conditions. Their laminated design also improves durability and enhances the roof’s overall appearance.

Storm Preparation

Proper installation and inspection help maintain roof integrity ahead of storm seasons. We ensure shingles are securely fastened to reduce granule loss and curling, which helps preserve the roof’s function over its typical service life.

Insurance

Does insurance cover this work?

Insurance rarely applies to planned asphalt shingle roofing work. Storm-damaged roofs follow a separate claim process that includes inspection and documentation.

Simple process

How it works

Our asphalt shingle roofing process includes inspection, preparation, installation, and final inspection to ensure lasting protection and compliance with local regulations.

  1. Roof Inspection

    We inspect the existing roof to assess its condition and determine if repairs or a full replacement are needed before installation.

  2. Preparation and Permits

    We prepare the roof deck and pull necessary permits for full replacements, coordinating inspections with local building departments to comply with all regulations and ensure code compliance.

  3. Shingle Installation

    Experienced installers apply shingles according to manufacturer specifications, ensuring proper alignment, fastening, and flashing to prevent leaks and maintain the roof’s weather resistance over time.

FAQ

Asphalt Shingle Roofing questions

What is the typical service life of three-tab asphalt shingles?
Three-tab asphalt shingles typically last about 15 to 18 years. They are lightweight and quick to install but show age earlier with granule loss and curling compared to architectural shingles.
How do architectural shingles differ from three-tab shingles?
Architectural shingles have a laminated double layer, providing a thicker, textured look. They last about 24 to 30 years and offer better wind resistance but are heavier and may vary in color.
Do I need a permit for asphalt shingle roof replacement?
Most cities require a building permit and inspection for full roof replacements. Small repairs often do not need permits. The contractor usually manages permit applications and inspections to ensure compliance with local building codes.
Can asphalt shingles be repaired if damaged?
Yes, damaged sections of asphalt shingles can be repaired quickly. Matching three-tab shingles is easier, while architectural shingle repairs may show slight color or texture differences due to laminated layers and manufacturing variations.
How do you temporarily cover a damaged roof?
To temporarily cover a damaged roof, first document the damage with photos from the ground and attic. Then, use a tarp to cover openings or divert leaks, securing it well to prevent further water intrusion. Keep receipts for any materials used. Avoid walking on the damaged roof to prevent injury or additional damage. Contact a roofer for a professional inspection before filing an insurance claim to ensure the damage is accurately assessed and repaired.
Will homeowners insurance cover roof repair?
Homeowners insurance may cover roof repair if damage results from a covered event like a storm. Document the damage with photos, stop further damage with tarps, and keep receipts. Contact your insurer promptly to report the loss and understand coverage and deductibles. A roof inspection and estimate help the adjuster assess the claim. Costs depend on roof size, pitch, material, tear-off needs, decking repairs, access, permits, and insurance terms. An accurate quote requires an inspection.
