What Are Asphalt Shingles?


We offer reliable products from today’s top manufacturers. Our products are primarily composed of:

  • Fibreglass core made of glass fibres that are held together with a strong resin. The fibreglass centre is strong, dependable, and  lightweight.
  • ​​The fibreglass core is coated with asphalt. The asphalt provides the shingle with a water-resistant material and durability from the wind.
  • The outside is coated with ceramic granules. The granules are available in various   colours and give added   protection from harmful UV rays from the sun. 
  • Sealant strips bond the shingles together when they are layered on top of each other.

Asphalt Shingle Types

There are different types of roof shingles based on your budget and needs:

3-Tab  - These are flat shingles with consistent sized tabs. They come in tabs of 3 and create a slate look.  These are a popular product as they are affordable and offer durability and longevity. Their flat design also makes it extra difficult for wind to get underneath and lift them up.  ​


Architectural - Architectural shingles have thicker layers of asphalt have added durability compared to 3-tab. They come in a wider variety of shapes, styles, and designs and provide an aesthetic look. While they are a greater investment than 3-tab, they are generally more stronger and longer-lasting. They also normally have a longer manufacturer’s warranty.
