OVER THE TOP ROOFING
Asphalt Shingle Roofing
By far, the number one covering over commercial and residential steep-sloped roofs in the United States is shingles. Developed over a century ago, the more common paper-based asphalt shingle has come far; giving way to more durable and affordable fiberglass reinforced and recycled rubber shingles. When it is time to replace your roof, you’ll have to decide if you are going to strip the existing roof or go over it with another layer of shingles. We highly recommend stripping the roof, as it allows for a full inspection of the deck surface (plywood or planks), transition points, skylights, chimneys, or any other areas that may be prone to leaking.
One of the main benefits of shingle roofing is that it is relatively easy to install and repair. Additionally, shingles are relatively durable and can last for many years with proper maintenance. They are also fire resistant, which can provide peace of mind for homeowners. In addition, shingle roofs typically have a long lifespan, so they are a good investment for the long term. For all these reasons, shingle roofing is a great option for many homeowners.
