When you’re looking for a high quality Prairie Village roofing company, one of the things you’ll need to consider is what materials are being used on your new roof. Some homeowners look at several roofing contractor bids and decide that price should be the deciding factor. That is fine, so long as all the contractors are offering the same quality of materials. You cannot, for example, compare a 3-tab shingle job to an architectural shingle job and expect them to be the same price. It used to be that everyone on the block had 3-tab shingles. However, these flat-looking and relatively unappealing shingles are only guaranteed for 15 years tops. By comparison, attractive 3-D architectural shingles are guaranteed for up to 40 years and are more wind and fire resistant. Architectural versus 3-Tab is just one of many considerations for your next roofing job.

Is your Leawood roofing 20+ years old?

Perhaps it’s been 20 years since your last Leawood roofing job. Back then, everyone had cheap, quick and easy three-tab flat shingles. Yet, recent innovations have brought the look of roofing a long way. Today, Missourians all want new, 3-D architectural shingles that come in an assortment of patterns, colors and shades. This style of roofing hides any imperfections caused by inclement weather and has massive curb appeal with its stunning three-dimensional layering illusion.

Why Leawood Roofing Experts Choose Architectural Shingles

Homeowners who like the look of slate, cedar shake or Spanish tile can get the same appearance without the heaviness or high cost with architectural shingles. This style of shingle is also more durable than the old three-tab shingles because they’re made with a heavy base mat and another mat applied on top. Your rooftop will have shadow lines and definition just like the more expensive tile roofs.
