In case you are pondering on installing a new roof, there are different materials offered in the market. There are also various styles and options to consider. If you are not familiar with the roofing materials, the number of available choices can easily overwhelm you. One of the most preferred roofing materials would be the asphalt shingles. There are different reasons behind the popularity of this material such as the high performance, the aesthetic feature, value, and ease of installation.

Composition of the Asphalt Shingles

Specialty shingles may be composed of unique materials. However, the asphalt shingles will be composed of core materials such as:

- Back Surfacing- It is made from a fine mineral that is found at the back of asphalt shingles. This part makes it possible for the shingles to be stored and manufactured while preventing them from sticking to each other and the machinery that makes the process practical and efficient.

- Granules- This is constructed from rock particles that have been coated with ceramics. This grants the unique color of the shingles. This also serves as an extra layer of protection that prevents the advanced deterioration of the shingles caused by the sun's UV rays.

- Fillers- Fillers are also known as mineral stabilizers. This is made from finely-ground items that will be mixed to the asphalt during the manufacturing procedure. This will dramatically increase the asphalt's fire resistance. It can increase the shingles durability, flexibility and reduce the wear and tear.

- Asphalt- This is the core ingredient of the asphalt shingle. It serves as the protection of roof against water. It also aims to hold all the granules.

- Fiberglass Mat- This reinforces the asphalt shingles. This provides the quality of asphalt shingles necessary for its durability and handling.

Different Asphalt Shingles

If you prefer to use asphalt shingles, this boast an array of designs that can be divided into different categories.

- Designer/Premium Shingles- This is a high-end type of asphalt shingles that have different styles and color options. Most of it will resemble the appearance of the slate, tile, or shake.

- Laminated Shingles- This is the preferred type of asphalt shingles. It does not only offer aesthetic feature but also dimensionality.

- 3-Tab- This is the most economical type of asphalt shingles. It is made from a single layer that comes with cut-outs that forms individual tabs.
