What Are Composition Shingles?

Contents

Roof Done With Compostion Shingles

Composition shingles represent an innovative solution for roof construction, based on multiple layers: silicone sand, bitumen and pre-impregnated glass fiber. This structure provides very good mechanical strength. In addition, the copper metallic, titanium-zinc or aluminum film, as well as the ceramic granules colored at high temperatures, guarantee the chromatic stability of composition shingles.

Where are they used?

Composition shingles are suitable for most roofs:

  • residential houses
  • turrets
  • hostels and boarding houses
  • cottages etc.=

What should you consider before buying composition shingles?

First, you must calculate the roof surface and take into account various aspects included in your project, as well as field measurements:

  • the architectural recommendations in your area
  • the urban planning
  • your roof slope
  • the annual snow load in the area
  • the direction and power of the wind
  • the required accessories, as they may differ from manufacturer to manufacturer
  • the final price of the entire project

The advantages of composition shingles

This roofing material is popular because it provides good protection for affordable prices. It can be installed easily by a skilled East Lansing roofing contractor and, due to being lightweight, it reduces the pressure on the building`s structure.

Composition shingles are designed to withstand various weather conditions (UV rays, wind, hail, snow), they do not favor condensation, do not rust and require minimal maintenance. They come in a wide range of patterns and colors, which makes them versatile enough to match various roof types.

Professional, Knowledgeable, and stress free is how I would describe my experience with Roof One. From first call, a representative actually answers the phone with a friendly welcome. Jason was prompt and quick to come out and give a detailed consultation. Antonio’s crew was amazing! Not only were they on time, but a few minutes early. They made sure to walk me through the process and didn’t leave until the job was complete. Scott helped work with my insurance adjuster and went out of his way to make sure I was completely satisfied. Bill and Sandra in the office treated me like family and Steve, the owner, was very kind and welcomed me to the Roof One family. Phenomenal Job Roof One, my family and I couldn’t be happier - Thank you!

From the beginning to the end, Roof one really impressed me regarding their professionalism when roofing my house. In particular Steve and Mark managed this job wonderfully. The crew they sent over did such a wonderful quality job and made sure my property was free of nails and debris. I would definitely hire this company for a roof job. Very straight forward with their prices and options. I was also grateful they hooked up vent fans and provided a gorgeous flashing for my large chimney. Good job guys! Wish there were more contractors like you!
