Composition Roofing

Composition shingles (typically known as asphalt shingles) are divided into two categories: organic and fiberglass. Organic composition shingles are manufactured with a cellulose fiber base made from recycled paper and wood fibers. This base is saturated with asphalt and given a mineral coating on one side to resist weathering. Fiberglass shingles are made in a similar fashion, but the central core is fiberglass, which is more flexible and stronger than cellulose materials. All composition shingles come in a wide variety of colors and are rated by their projected life expectancy, typically 30-50 years. This is a great option if you're looking for a standard, long-lasting roof at a great price.
