Superior Roofing

Many people consider asphalt shingles as their go-to option, but what they do not know is that there are different versions of this roofing system. These include the three-tab, dimensional and designer shingles. But, how can you tell which of these three is the best choice for your home? Superior Roofing, a roofing company in the area, discusses the main differences between these types of asphalt shingles.

Three-Tab Shingles

Homeowners who want an economical roofing material that is easy to maintain should choose three-tab shingles. They consist of three tabs in one layer. With proper installation, this type of asphalt shingles can withstand strong winds. Three-tab shingles, however, may not look as good as designer shingles, but they still are attractive.

Designer Shingles

For homeowners who want to revamp their home’s look, why not consider installing designer shingles? This type of roofing material comes in a variety of colors, shapes and styles, which can add more character to your home. It also matches dimensional shingles in strength, which can provide long-lasting weather protection to your home.

Dimensional Shingles

Dimensional or architectural shingles cost a bit more than their traditional three-tab counterpart. They have layers on each shingle, which improves their overall attractiveness. This material also adds more contour to your roofing system, unlike the straightforward design of three-tab shingles. Moreover, their many layers provide superior wind and hail resistance that can safeguard your home.
