FAQs
What makes asphalt architectural shingles different from traditional three-tab shingles?
Architectural shingles are manufactured with a thicker, multi-layered design that gives them a dimensional appearance similar to slate or wood shakes. This added depth not only enhances curb appeal but also increases weight and durability, allowing them to resist wind uplift, impact and UV degradation better than conventional three-tab options.
How long can I expect architectural asphalt shingles to last in Pioneer’s climate?
When properly installed and ventilated, architectural shingles typically last 25–30 years, even in Pioneer's variable weather. Their extra thickness provides better resistance to high winds, heavy snow loads and temperature swings common to our region, giving them a longer service life than thinner three-tab shingles.
Will architectural shingles add value to my home?
Yes. Because of their dimensional look, broad color selection and superior performance, architectural shingles often boost a home’s resale value and perceived quality. Real-estate studies show homeowners can recoup much of the roofing investment through higher selling prices and quicker sales times.
How is the “Roofing Done Right” installation process different?
Our Roofing Done Right approach includes a full tear-off of old materials, deck inspection, premium synthetic underlayment, ice-and-water shield in vulnerable areas, properly sized ventilation, high-quality flashing and manufacturer-approved nailing patterns. Each step is documented and inspected to ensure your roof meets or exceeds warranty requirements and local Pioneer codes.
Do architectural shingles come with a warranty?
Most leading manufacturers offer limited lifetime warranties on architectural shingles, typically covering manufacturing defects for up to 50 years and wind protection up to 130 mph when installed to specs. Our Roofing Done Right program registers your roof for enhanced warranty coverage and provides a separate workmanship guarantee for added peace of mind.
What maintenance do architectural asphalt shingle roofs require?
Maintenance is minimal: keep gutters clear, trim overhanging branches, inspect flashings annually and remove debris or moss promptly. Scheduled professional inspections every 3–5 years, especially after major storms, help catch small issues early and keep your warranty intact.
