Reasons to Invest in Architectural Shingles

Mar. 24 2017

Are you planning to invest in a new roof this season? Architectural shingles are a great choice for your roof replacement project, especially when you choose from GAF. Vinylume is proud to offer GAF’s premium architectural roofing shingles. Here, we discuss the qualities that make this a fantastic option:

Dimensional Look

Architectural shingles offer deep dimensions, giving your home an upscale appearance. Unlike three-tab shingles, which only have one size and shape, architectural shingles come in different sizes and shapes, realistically mimicking authentic slate or genuine wood shakes.

Superior Thickness

Roofing systems with architectural shingles are more resistant to the elements. These shingles are thicker and longer than other materials, which gives them extra durability. In fact, GAF provides wind coverage up to 130 mph on their architectural shingles.

Lasting Value

Architectural asphalt shingles add tremendous value to your home by combining beauty and performance in one material. With GAF’s architectural shingles, you won’t have to worry about replacing your roof for decades. When installed properly, they’ll require very little maintenance over the years, minimizing their life-cycle costs.

As a Master Elite roofing contractor, you can rely on Vinylume to help you choose the most suitable architectural shingles for your home. Our certification also gives us the exclusive privilege to offer you GAF’s strongest levels of coverage for maximum roof protection. We offer GAF’s Golden Pledge® Limited Warranty. This covers material defects for 50 years and workmanship issues for 25 years. You can also transfer it to the next homeowner.
