Estimating & Workflow

Architectural shingles

A class of asphalt shingles also called laminated or dimensional shingles. They are built with a thicker base and multiple layers so they cast deeper shadows and hide their seams better than the flat tab style. They are often the covering an estimate provides when a home already has this heavier shingle look.
