Shingle roof System are a popular and affordable roofing option for residential homes.
They are made up of individual shingles, which are overlapping rectangular or square pieces of material, usually made of asphalt or fiberglass. The shingles are installed in rows, starting at the bottom of the roof and working upwards towards the peak.
One of the main advantages of shingle roofs is their affordability. They are a cost-effective roofing option that provides good protection against the elements. Shingle roofs are also relatively easy to install and maintain. They are available in a variety of colors and styles, which makes them a versatile option for any home.
Prepare the roof deck
Ensure the roof deck is clean, dry, and free of any debris or protrusions that could damage the shingles. The deck should also be structurally sound, capable of supporting the weight of the shingles.
Install underlayment
Apply an appropriate underlayment to the roof deck, such as a synthetic roofing felt. This will provide an extra layer of protection against water penetration and improve the roof’s insulation.
Install the starter strip
Install a starter strip along the eaves of the roof. The starter strip should be secured to the roof deck and have a slight overhang.
Install flashing
Install metal flashing around roof penetrations, such as chimneys, vents, and skylights, to prevent water from entering the roof.

Asphalt shingles are the most common type of shingle used for residential roofing. They are made of asphalt-coated fiberglass and come in a range of styles, from traditional 3-tab shingles to more textured and dimensional architectural shingles. Fiberglass shingles are also popular, as they are more durable and resistant to fire and moisture than traditional asphalt shingles.
