1. Asphalt Shingles (3-Tab)

Most popular and budget-friendly.
These traditional shingles are made from fiberglass or organic materials coated with asphalt and mineral granules. They’re lightweight, easy to install, and typically last 15–20 years.

2. Architectural (Dimensional) Asphalt Shingles

Enhanced look and longer lifespan.
These are thicker and more durable than 3-tab shingles, offering a layered, dimensional appearance that mimics wood or slate. Lifespan is typically 25–30+ years.

3. Metal Shingles

Durable and energy-efficient.
Made from steel, aluminum, or copper, metal shingles resist weather, fire, and pests. They reflect solar heat, helping reduce cooling costs, and can last 40–70 years.

4. Wood Shingles

Natural and attractive finish.
Typically made from cedar, redwood, or pine, wood shingles offer a classic, rustic look. They require regular maintenance and have a lifespan of 20–30 years.

5. Wood Shakes

Thicker and more rugged than wood shingles.
Split rather than sawn, wood shakes have a more textured, hand-crafted appearance. They're durable and breathable but require high maintenance and treatment for fire resistance.

6. Slate Shingles

Elegant and extremely long-lasting.
Natural stone slate shingles are heavy, durable, and fire-resistant, often lasting over 100 years. They’re costly and require a strong roof structure for support.

7. Clay Tile Shingles

Classic style for warmer climates.
Popular in Spanish or Mediterranean architecture, clay tiles are very durable and heat-resistant but heavy and expensive. Lifespan is often 50–100 years.

8. Concrete Tile Shingles

A more affordable alternative to clay.
Concrete tiles mimic the look of clay, slate, or wood and are very durable. They're heavy but offer great fire resistance and longevity—often 40–60 years.

9. Synthetic or Composite Shingles

Engineered for style and performance.
Made from a mix of materials (rubber, plastic, polymer), these shingles imitate high-end materials like slate or wood but with less maintenance. Lightweight and long-lasting (30–50 years).

10. Solar Shingles

Eco-friendly and energy-producing.
These innovative shingles double as solar panels, blending seamlessly into your roof. While more expensive upfront, they can generate electricity and lower energy bills over time.
