What type of asphalt shingle to choose?

There are different models of asphalt shingles. Each has its advantages. To do this, visit our section dedicated to the various products offered.

The architectural asphalt shingle

Whether rustic, embossed, slate or interlocking, architectural shingles are chic and add prestige and protection to roofs in search of new heights! Simple to install, it reduces certain labor costs.

In the roofing world, the term "stratified" or "laminate" refers to a construction in two or more layers of factory-bonded shingles. These laminate shingles are also called architectural shingles because of their superior aesthetic value. Some models evoke wood shingles or slate tiles, which its mosaic, color options and the quality of service provided by Patio Design roofers accentuate. Architectural shingles are therefore just as well known as dimensional, stratified or laminate shingles.

The three-legged shingle

It’s not some strange monster, but the traditional shingle design, which for decades has covered the roofs of homes in North America. Its surface is smooth, uniform, nested in parallel, a bit like a ceramic.

Less popular than before, less aesthetic than architectural shingles, generally more affordable to buy, it is often suitable for softer slopes without obstacles. The three-legged shingle is sometimes referred to as a 3T shingle or strip shingle.

Organic shingle or fiberglass?

The asphalt shingle found on the market today is fiberglass. The organic shingle has not stood the test of time, having demonstrated certain shortcomings, corrected by recent innovations and the qualities of fiberglass.

Its lifespan is superior and it resists degradation caused by temperature variations. An article by André Dumont, published in the magazine Québec Habitation, pointed out in 2015 that “fiberglass shingles suffer less from heat and humidity than their organic predecessors. However, they require adequate ventilation of the attic (in accordance with the Construction Code) for their warranty to remain valid. "

You my roof: a little story of the asphalt shingle

Even if its history is less fascinating than a bio of Brigitte Bardot, Wikipedia recalls that the asphalt shingle is an American invention, used for the first time in 1901. It reads that in “1903, Henry M. Reynolds of Grand Rapids, Mich., Begins marketing asphalt shingles cut from roll roofing sheets. It is then made using strips of felt, coated with asphalt, followed by a top coat of finely ground stone. In the 1920s, this roofing material was so popular that it was sold by mail order. By the 1950s, the typical asphalt shingle already resembled the product found today. "

Hence the idea that this solution crosses time and competition, with grip, confidence and stability. And that's why Patio Design favors it too. But back to Wikipedia: “Since the late 1950s, manufacturers have sought to develop inorganic-based materials as alternatives to traditional organic felt. Inorganic bases are more fire resistant and absorb less asphalt during the manufacturing process, so shingles weigh less. […] Improvements to the fiberglass mat have made it the base material for asphalt shingles, the most popular in the industry since the late 1970s. ”There you go: all you have to do is impress. your friends!
