FAQs
What types of asphalt shingles do you offer for homes in Seymour?
We install three main categories of asphalt shingles—3-tab, architectural (also called dimensional), and premium designer shingles. 3-tab shingles are the most economical choice and provide a flat, uniform look. Architectural shingles are thicker, have a layered appearance, and offer better wind resistance. Premium designer shingles mimic the texture of slate or cedar shake for an upscale look while remaining budget-friendly. All of the shingles we carry are UL-rated for fire resistance and meet or exceed ASTM D7158 and D3161 wind-uplift standards, making them well-suited to Seymour’s climate.
How long will an asphalt shingle roof last in Seymour’s climate?
With quality materials and professional installation, a standard architectural asphalt shingle roof lasts 25–30 years in Seymour. 3-tab shingles typically last 18–22 years, while premium designer shingles can exceed 30 years. Lifespan is influenced by factors such as attic ventilation, maintenance, and exposure to severe weather. We use ridge vents and proper underlayment to maximize longevity and we offer annual roof checkups to spot small issues before they shorten roof life.
Can asphalt shingles handle the heavy rain, snow, and summer heat we get here?
Yes. Modern asphalt shingles are engineered to withstand temperature swings from sub-zero winters to 90 °F+ summers. The fiberglass mat core resists thermal cracking, and advanced sealant strips lock shingles together to resist uplift in 110–130 mph winds. Our recommended Class 3 or 4 impact-rated shingles add extra protection against hail. We also install ice-and-water shield in valleys and along eaves to prevent ice-dam leaks that are common in Seymour’s snowy seasons.
What is your typical roofing installation timeline and process?
Most single-family homes take one to two days for tear-off and new shingle installation, weather permitting. The process includes: 1) onsite inspection and detailed written proposal; 2) delivery of materials and protective tarping of landscaping; 3) removal of old roofing to the deck and replacement of any rotten sheathing; 4) installation of underlayment, ice-and-water barrier, drip edge, and flashing; 5) laying of new shingles, ridge vents, and ridge caps; 6) magnetic nail sweep and full site cleanup. We secure any required Seymour building permits and schedule the final town inspection.
Do you also provide siding solutions and can they be completed at the same time as the roof?
Absolutely. We install vinyl, fiber-cement, and engineered wood siding, allowing you to coordinate exterior colors and textures with your new roof for a cohesive curb appeal upgrade. Combining roofing and siding projects often saves 5–10 % on labor costs, reduces overall construction time, and ensures that flashing integrations between the roof and walls are performed seamlessly by one contractor.
What warranties and financing options are available for Seymour homeowners?
All of our asphalt shingles come with a manufacturer’s limited lifetime warranty (non-prorated for the first 10 years). As certified installers, we can upgrade you to enhanced warranties that cover labor and disposal for up to 50 years. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 10 years, and we provide free follow-up inspections during the first two years. Flexible financing plans with low-interest or zero-interest promotional periods are available through our lending partners, subject to credit approval, so you can spread project costs over 12–120 months.
