Shingles are the most popular roofing choice

About 75% of American homeowners—and many businesses—choose shingle roofing.

Shingles are popular for many reasons:

  • The wide variety of colors and styles
  • Durability
  • Adaptability to any style or shape of roof
  • Noise reduction
  • Affordability

A shingle roof adds beauty, texture, and color, raising property value and curb appeal. 

Types of shingles

Many varieties of shingles are available. The two most common are three-tab shingles and architectural shingles.

Three-tab shingles are single-layer strips divided into three equal sections or tabs. Tabbed shingles give the roof a uniform-texture and a flat, even look. Tabbed shingles are budget-friendly but have a shorter warranty period. 

Architectural shingles (also known as dimensional or laminate shingles) are thicker and heavier than tabbed shingles. Their distinctive look and durability make them the preferred shingle choice. Architectural shingles are made from multiple layers sealed together with slight variations in color and thickness. The result is a three-dimensional look that reflects light and shadow and adds texture to your roof. Architectural shingles cost more than tabbed shingles, but they are more durable and have a longer warranty.
