Über dieses Material

Asphalt shingles are the most popular residential roofing material in North America, covering over 75% of all homes. They come in two main styles: 3-tab shingles (flat, uniform appearance, 20-25 year warranty, lower cost) and architectural/dimensional shingles (layered, textured appearance, 30-50 year warranty, more wind resistant). Shingles are sold in bundles, with 3 bundles covering 1 roofing square (100 sq ft). Architectural shingles cost $30 to $50 per bundle, while premium designer shingles run $50 to $100 per bundle. Popular brands include GAF Timberline, CertainTeed Landmark, and Owens Corning Duration. Shingle color affects attic temperature — lighter colors reflect more heat in southern climates. Wind ratings range from 60 mph for basic 3-tab to 130 mph for high-wind architectural shingles. Ridge cap shingles are sold separately (about 20 linear feet per bundle) and are needed for all ridge and hip lines.
