If you need a new shingle roof in Willoughby, here's what matters: fiberglass mat construction with ceramic granulated coating for UV protection and fire rating. Architectural shingles carry a Class A fire rating and wind resistance ratings up to 130 mph. Willoughby Roofing & Maintenance helps you pick the right shingle for your home and budget.
Architectural shingles are heavier and more wind-resistant than three-tab because of their laminated, multi-layer construction. The fiberglass mat provides the structural base, asphalt makes it waterproof, and the granulated ceramic surface protects against UV radiation and provides fire resistance. We install them over synthetic underlayment with ice-and-water shield at valleys and eaves.
Our Shingle Roofing Process
Free Roof Estimate
We inspect your existing roof deck and sheathing, measure the area, and help you choose between architectural and three-tab asphalt shingles. Color samples brought to your Willoughby home.
Strip & Inspect
Full tear-off to the deck. Old shingles, deteriorated felt, and corroded flashing removed and hauled to the dumpster. Deck inspection catches hidden damage — rotted sheathing, water-stained OSB, nail pops — before it's buried under new shingles.
Ice Shield & Drip Edge
The waterproofing layer is what protects your home if a shingle ever fails. We install ice-and-water shield at every vulnerable point — valleys, eaves, penetrations — then roll synthetic underlayment over the entire deck. Drip edge directs water into gutters, not behind fascia boards.
Nailing & Overlap
Starter strips along the eave, then field courses of architectural shingles with manufacturer-specified offset and overlap. Each shingle nailed in the designated zone with 4-6 fasteners. Ridge cap shingles hand-nailed at every hip and ridge for a finished, watertight top.
