Your Iowa roofing system has one of the biggest impacts of any exterior feature. Ensure its optimized with quality workmanship and materials like Owens Corning or GAF roofing material.
Shingle Roofing
Asphalt shingles are the most commonly used application for residential homes, and they do a great job of keeping water and weather out. Today’s material is very durably made with a tough fiberglass reinforcement to resist tearing or blow-off. There are two general types of asphalt shingles: 3-tab and architectural; each has its own unique look and feel.
• 3-Tab—lighter weight, consistent shape and size, inexpensive
• Architectural—thicker and richer appearance (layered appearance), has improved warranty protections
We’re happy to review colors, options and projected costs based on your selections. We install all major brand names of asphalt roofing shingles, including GAF, Owens Corning and CertainTeed.
