Budget-Friendly: One of the most cost-effective roofing options without skimping on quality.
Style Variety: Tons of colors and designs to match your home’s aesthetic.
Durability: Can withstand heavy winds, hail, and the freeze-thaw cycles common in Michigan.
Easy Repairs: If damage ever happens, shingle sections can be swapped out quickly.
Great for Re-Roofing: In some cases, you can install over an old roof (we’ll let you know if it’s safe to do).
Fire Resistant: Asphalt shingles offer solid protection against embers and external fires.
Warranty-Backed: Most come with strong manufacturer warranties when installed by a certified contractor.

Asphalt Shingle FAQs—Straight from the Roofer’s Mouth

You’ve got roofing questions, and we’ve got roofing answers. Below are some of the most common things homeowners ask us about asphalt shingles. If you’re still curious after this, just reach out—we’re happy to nerd out about roofing.

What’s the difference between 3-tab and architectural shingles?

3-tab shingles are the more basic option; lighter, flatter, and typically less expensive up front. Architectural shingles are thicker, layered, and built to last longer, with better curb appeal and wind resistance.

We’ll help you decide what fits your home and budget best, and we’ll show you samples so you can actually see the difference.

How do asphalt shingles hold up in Michigan weather?

They are easily one of the best roofing material choices, especially when they’re installed right. High-quality asphalt shingles are designed to withstand heavy snow, high winds, and rapid freeze-thaw cycles (aka: every Michigan winter ever).

We use brands that are known for durability, and we install them in ways that make sense for our local climate.

Can asphalt shingles be installed under solar panels?

Absolutely. In fact, asphalt shingles are one of the most solar-friendly roofing materials. They provide a strong, consistent surface for mounting solar panels and don’t require any fancy prep work.

We’ll make sure your new shingle roof is fully solar-ready if that’s something you’re considering now or down the road.

How long do asphalt shingles typically last?

Most architectural shingles are rated for 25 to 30 years, and many last even longer with proper maintenance. Cheaper 3-tab options usually fall in the 15 to 20-year range.

Either way, we’ll explain your warranty coverage and give you tips on how to extend the lifespan of your roof.

What kind of maintenance do asphalt shingles need?

They’re low maintenance, but not no maintenance. You’ll want to keep your gutters clear, trim overhanging branches, and schedule the occasional inspection, especially after a big storm. Spotting small issues early (like a few loose shingles or a clogged valley) can save you a ton in repair costs later on.
