Exploring Shingle Roofing:
A Comprehensive Guide
What is Shingle Roofing?
Shingle roofing is a type of roofing material consisting of overlapping individual elements, or shingles. These shingles are typically made from materials such as asphalt, fiberglass, wood, or slate, each offering its own unique advantages.
Considerations Before Choosing Shingle Roofing
While shingle roofing offers numerous benefits, it may not be the ideal choice for every situation. For instance, in regions prone to extreme weather conditions such as hurricanes or wildfires, homeowners may opt for more resilient roofing materials like metal or tile.
Additionally, shingle roofing requires regular maintenance to maximize its lifespan and performance. Periodic inspections, repairs, and cleanings are essential to ensure your roof remains in optimal condition and continues to safeguard your home against water damage and other potential issues.
Overall, shingle roofing is a versatile and cost-effective option for homeowners seeking reliable protection and aesthetic appeal for their homes. With proper installation, maintenance, and attention to detail, a shingle roof can provide years of dependable service, enhancing the value and comfort of your home.

Durability and Weather
Climate, weather and environmental factors play a large role in how long asphalt shingles will last. Homes in areas with long summers with high heat may need a roof replacement sooner than homes located in cooler regions. Most damaging to asphalt shingles are sudden spikes in temperature—from 40 or 50 degrees at night to well over 100 by midday, for example. In areas known for severe winters, ice dams that form as water freezes may aggravate tiny cracks and fissures that eventually necessitate replacement. Roof pitch also plays a part in the life of shingles. The steeper the slope, the likelier it is that water and ice can drain off quickly and not remain to become destructive. It is for this reason that architectural shingles are not recommended for low-sloping roofs, which are more vulnerable to wind-driven rain and ice buildup.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
Patricia P.
We are so thankful that we chose Sheeley Roofing to replace our shingles and gutters. So professional from start to finish. Phil Fragale was very helpful in explaining beforehand the steps needed to complete our project. As our project progressed there was always someone ( Kelli and Steve) there answering any or our questions. Everyone at Sheeley’s made sure that we were happy with the way the project was going and that we knew what would happen next. We highly recommend Sheeley Roofing!!
David D.
I was thoroughly pleased with the cedar shake roof installed by Sheeley Roofing on my 300-year old house. Their attention to detail, professional crew, and site cleanup at the end of each day was exemplary.
John S.
Everything from the initial call with Steve to the job and cleanup with Garrett and his crew was great. They met my needs for my roof, replaced our chimney flashing (which was the culprit), took out our skylights (so those won’t be our next issue) and took extra time and care at the end of the day to ensure all the nails and other debris were cleaned up. As a local mold inspector I’ll be recommending them to all of my clients in need of roof repairs/replacement going forward. Thank you for doing such a great job Steve and Garrett.
Taylor R.
It wasn’t the cheapest bid we got, but we are really glad that we went with Sheeley. They were great to work with and the job was extremely professional and tight. They respected our property and really listened to what was important to us and what we wanted to have happen. We felt totally taken care of.

Our experience with Sheeley Roofing Company was outstanding. We were dealing with a leaky roof after summer rains, they were quick to respond, providing a new roof and gutters. We’re impressed with the speed and quality of their work. We recommend Sheeley Roofing Company for their excellent service.
Jeff D.
We had a pretty large roof that was starting to leak and used Sheeley to replace it. They were terrific! On schedule, working long days and doing a beautiful job. The crew was happy and worked very well together. I would recommend them without hesitation.
David B.
I really enjoyed the whole experience working with Sheeley Roofing on our cedar shake roof project. They made all of our options and contingencies clear beforehand, started the project when promised and finished it on time and on budget. The team installing the roof were kind, respectful, professional, clean and extremely hard working. I This is our second project with Pat and the team at Sheeley. They are excellent.
Raymond S.
Sheeley Roofing was a pleasure to work with. They were understanding of our situation as we needed a new roof before our 2nd child arrived. Steve was our point person and he was highly communicative, caring, and efficient. Materials took about 4 weeks to arrive and old roof was removed with new roof installed in 1 day! Could not ask for better service and would highly recommend.
