FAQs
What are architectural shingles and how do they differ from traditional 3-tab shingles?
Architectural shingles—sometimes called dimensional or laminate shingles—are multi-layered asphalt shingles that feature a thicker, sculpted profile. Unlike flat 3-tab shingles, each architectural shingle is made of two or more fused layers, creating depth that mimics wood shakes or slate. This construction enhances durability, wind resistance (up to 130 mph with proper installation), and curb appeal. They also come with longer manufacturer warranties—typically 30 years to lifetime—versus the 20–25 year warranties common for 3-tab products.
Why are architectural shingles a smart choice for homes in Halls’ climate?
Halls experiences hot, humid summers, occasional hail, and strong spring storms. Architectural shingles are engineered to withstand these conditions with: • Thicker asphalt layers that resist heat warping and UV degradation. • Heavier weight, which helps them stay in place during high winds common to West Tennessee. • Improved impact ratings that reduce the chance of hail damage. • Algae-resistant granules that prevent black streaks in our humid environment. These advantages translate into fewer repairs and a longer service life compared to standard roofing options.
How long will an architectural shingle roof last, and what warranties do you provide?
On average, architectural shingle roofs last 25–35 years, and many premium lines reach 40+ years when installed correctly and ventilated properly. We are Owens Corning Preferred Contractors, so our Halls customers can receive: • Manufacturer’s Limited Lifetime Warranty on materials. • Optional System Protection or Platinum Protection that covers labor and tear-off for 25–50 years. • Our own 10-year workmanship guarantee. Regular inspections every 2–3 years help you maximize that lifespan.
Can new siding be installed at the same time as an architectural shingle roof replacement?
Yes. Coordinating roofing and siding projects saves labor costs and ensures all exterior components integrate seamlessly. Our team schedules roofing first to maintain a watertight structure, then installs siding, trim, and soffits. Doing both together allows us to: • Match color palettes and design details. • Install house-wrap or insulation boards behind siding without disturbing a finished roofline later. • Complete the entire exterior makeover in a single permit cycle, minimizing disruption to your household.
How much does it cost to install architectural shingles and new siding on a typical Halls home?
Pricing depends on roof size, pitch, siding material, and any decking or fascia repairs. As a ballpark: • Architectural shingle roofing: $4.25–$6.75 per square foot installed. • Vinyl siding replacement: $6.00–$9.00 per square foot installed. • Fiber-cement or engineered wood siding: $9.00–$13.00 per square foot installed. For a 2,000 sq ft roof and 2,200 sq ft of wall area, combined replacement runs $19,000–$27,000. We provide free on-site evaluations, detailed itemized quotes, and financing options with payments as low as $135/month (approved credit).
What maintenance is required for architectural shingles and modern siding products?
Architectural shingles: • Inspect after severe storms for lifted tabs or granule loss. • Keep gutters clear so water can drain properly. • Remove overhanging branches to prevent abrasion. • Schedule professional roof inspections every 2–3 years. Siding (vinyl, fiber-cement, or engineered wood): • Rinse dirt and pollen with a garden hose annually; use mild soap for stubborn stains. • Check caulking around windows and doors and re-seal as needed. • Inspect for loose panels or cracks after high winds. • Repaint fiber-cement or engineered wood every 10–15 years, depending on paint quality. Following these simple steps will keep your exterior looking sharp and performing well for decades.
