Shingles Roofing Troutman, NC
Asphalt roof shingles are available in two types – Fiberglass and Organic-Mat. Skywalker Roofing of troutman offers Asphalt roof replacement and repair service for both types of shingle roofs. Organic shingles use a cellulose-fiber mat derived from wood that is saturated with asphalt to make it waterproof. It is then coated with adhesive asphalt and then ceramic granules are embedded. Organic shingles contain around 40% more asphalt per square (100 sq. ft.) than their glass fiber counterpart which makes them weigh more and gives them excellent durability and blow-off resistance.
On the other hand, Fiberglass shingles have a glass fiber reinforcing mat that is manufactured to the exact shape of the shingle. This mat is then coated with asphalt which contains mineral fillers. While the fiberglass mat is not waterproof by itself, asphalt makes it waterproof. Fiberglass makes the shingles strong. However, the asphalt itself will not stick to the mat. For this reason, “fillers” are used. The fillers in the asphalt cling to the glass fibers in the mat. The asphalt then encapsulates the glass fibers, fills all the little holes and voids in the mat rendering it waterproof. After this cools a bit, adhesive asphalt is used to cover the mat and the ceramic granules are then embedded.
Which Type of Asphalt Roofing to Choose?
The troutman roofing contractors at Skywalker Roofing can help you make the best decision for your troutman home when it comes to asphalt shingles. Fiberglass shingles are thinner, lighter, and carry a better fire rating than organic shingles, but organic-mat shingles are tougher and stay more flexible in cold weather when freeze and thaw cycle is in its full glory.
We are not limited to Asphalt Shingles but can also help you with Wood Shingles that are derived from wood blocks; they are tapered and generally have a relatively smooth surface. Wood Shakes are split from wood blocks; they are less uniform in thickness than shingles, are sometimes grooved, and frequently have little tapering.
We are also very well known for Metal Roofing needs of our residential and commercial customers in North Carolina.
