What Is Asphalt Shingle?
An asphalt shingle is the most common residential roof covering in the United States, made from a fiberglass or organic mat coated with asphalt and embedded with mineral granules. It is affordable, easy to install, and available in architectural (dimensional) and 3-tab styles. In the hot Inland Empire sun, choose a shingle with good granule adhesion and adequate ventilation to maximize lifespan.
