Shingle Roofing

Chicagoland Residential Shingle Roofing


Architectural shingles are one of the most common roofing products used throughout the Chicagoland area because of their durability and affordability. Architectural shingles are manufactured with multiple layers of asphalt fused on top of each other. The result is a richer, multidimensional quality that looks a bit like wood or slate roofing. Architectural shingles come in a wide variety of colors to match the exterior decor of any home.

Replacing a roof is inevitable – changing the color or style of your shingles is a great way to put a personal touch on your home and add real value. Matrix Exteriors only uses quality products from GAF and CertainTeed. When installing these products we use the corresponding components that work together to give you the best roofing system available. Contact Us today for a free, no-obligation estimate.

    Architectural vs. 3-Tab Shingles: Is Cheaper Better?

    Asphalt shingles are a roofing staple all over North America by dint of their low upfront cost and easy installation. They are currently the most significant player in the roofing market, outpacing all other roofing materials by a considerable margin. Asphalt shingles are manufactured in two different types: three-tab and architectural.

    Three-tab shingles are distinguished by cutouts—tabs—made along their long lower edge. The result, says Joan Crowe, a technical services director for the National Roofing Contractor’s Association (NRCA), is that “each shingle looks like three separate pieces when installed, but it’s only one.” Three-tab shingles have been around a long time and are still the most economical and most popular shingle today.

    Architectural asphalt shingles contain no cutouts, but their lower portions are laminated with an additional asphalt layer. This creates the contoured, dimensional look that gives them their name. Asphalt sealant bonds the layers, reinforcing the shingles’ waterproof capability. Though durable, architectural shingles are not recommended for low-sloping roofs, which are more vulnerable to wind-driven rain.

    Although the difference between three-tab and architectural shingles seems superficial, roofers consider the latter a more high-end roofing product. The price difference reflects this, with architectural shingles costing 20% to 40% percent more than three-tab shingles—a difference that can mean up to $1500 more for larger roofs.

    But are architectural shingles worth the extra cost? The Answer Is Yes, Unequivocally Yes. Here’s why:

    • Architectural shingles can be made to resemble premium roofing materials like cedar and slate and are better able to hide imperfections on the roof surface.
    • Architectural shingles are nearly twice as thick as three-tab shingles and are therefore more durable and less vulnerable to curling.
    • Weight and wind resistance. Three-tab shingles usually weigh 240 lbs per square and are rated for wind speeds up to 60 mph; architectural shingles weigh 340-440 lbs per square and are rated for wind speeds up to 80-120 mph.
    • Manufacturer’s warranties. Twenty-five years for three-tab, 40 to 50 years for architectural.

    So is it cheaper better? The answer will depend on how you look at things. Three-tab shingles are more affordable upfront, but throughout your roof’s lifetime, architectural shingles can cost less.
