Types of Asphalt Shingles

Not all asphalt shingles are created equal. At Marina Bay Roofing, we work with top shingle manufacturers to provide the highest-quality options for your home and budget.

Here are the main types of asphalt shingles:

1. Tab Shingles

- Simple, classic, and budget-friendly.
- Great for smaller homes or rental properties.
- Also known as tab shingles or strip shingles.

2. Architectural Shingles (Dimensional Shingles)

- Thicker, layered design for a textured appearance.
- Long lifespan and enhanced wind resistance.
- Ideal for homeowners seeking both performance and style

3. Luxury Shingles

- Premium-grade asphalt roofing that mimics slate or wood shingles.
- Heavier weight provides extra protection and a high-end look.
- The best balance of durability and beauty for upscale homes.

Architectural Asphalt Shingle Roofs

For Bay Area homeowners who want elegance and strength, architectural asphalt shingles deliver both. These shingles offer depth, dimension, and weather protection that outlasts standard models.

Our architectural asphalt shingle roof installations provide excellent value, often lasting 25–30 years with minimal maintenance.

Composition &Layers of Asphalt

Every asphalt shingle is built for durability. A typical composition shingle roof includes multiple layers of asphalt reinforced by fiberglass mats, granules, and adhesives — all designed to seal out moisture and enhance longevity.

This layered design is what makes asphalt roofing one of the most common roofing materials in the roofing industry.
