The popularity of asphalt roofs—also known as composition roofs—stems from their cost effectiveness and performance. While materials such as slate and tile may last significantly longer than asphalt, their high price tag makes them unrealistic for the majority of homeowners. Furthermore, technological advancements have resulted in asphalt shingles that are more attractive, longer lasting, and better for the environment. For example, GAF makes 30 year asphalt roofing shingles when installed by a certified GAF installer. Apex Construction is a GAF certified roofing specialist.
Asphalt roof shingles have three main components: the base (also called a felt, mat, or substrate), an asphalt coating, and a weather-resistant topcoat made from mineral granules. The shingle base provides it with structure and strength, the asphalt lends a degree of weatherability and stability, and the surface granules give a shingle its color in addition to ultraviolet ray protection.
