Shingle Types


Asphalt shingles cut into squares with surface granules were first used in the early 1900’s. These granules can provide colours which serve both aesthetic value and technical purpose like maintaining temperature and blocking ultraviolet light. Newer generation asphalt shingles use fibreglass bases removing asbestos and providing durability in all types of weather and fireproofing. There are architectural asphalt shingles and traditional 3-tab shingles. Although 3-tab is generally used for lower cost material and installation, this type of roofing doesn’t tend to last more than 20 years while architectural shingles are thicker, vary in shape and size, offer more aesthetic appeal, and tend to last longer.

IKO Shingles
