Sacramento Roof Company: On Laminated Asphalt Shingles

Family, Serving Sacramento Since 1888

As a homeowner, you are continuously searching for ways to make your house a better place. However, with the current financial decline, every dime you spend has to be worth it. This presents quite a challenge, especially when choosing a roofing material.

Homeowners across the country have been using asphalt shingles for over a century. Inexpensive and durable, they provide a viable alternative to more popular roofing materials. Now, technology has led to the development of the laminated asphalt shingle. Laminated or dimensional asphalt shingles are pretty much like a regular three-tab except that the latter has two layers.

Although laminated shingles originally had 2 layers, manufacturers have begun producing three-layered ones. The outcome is an asphalt shingle that has twice the durability of regular shingles. The multiple layers also give the shingle a more solid appearance. Laminated shingles can even be designed to mimic the look of wood and slate.

Benefits

Typically rated to withstand 130 mph winds, laminated shingles provide the same level of protection of wood and aluminum roofs at a significantly lower price tag.

Durability – Laminated asphalt shingles can last significantly more than regular three-tab shingles. In fact, with the proper maintenance, laminated shingles can last for 25-30 years.
Aesthetics – As laminated asphalt shingles are heavier, they create the illusion of depth. This allows the material to have the look and feel of wood or slate; each of which are popular variations of the laminated shingle.
Energy Star Certified – With potential total annual cost savings of anywhere around 15 – 25%, Energy Star certified shingles practically pay for themselves in terms of how much you’ll save on your energy bills.

“I need a total bathroom remodel, and everyone at Yancey has been a delight to work with. All my questions have been answered, the choices of materials were abundant, and Scott guided us expertly through the process one step at a time. I would highly recommend them!”

Laura Powell

“Yancey was awesome to work with. My estimator was Brian Speaks, and he made the entire experience simple and enjoyable for us. There was no high pressure sales, and Brian went out of his way to make sure we got exactly what we wanted and needed. His pricing was fair, and he helped us get financing right on the spot. If I would provide more than 5 stars, I would.”

Ryan Calderwood

“Tommy was very helpful in explaining the roofing process and itemizing the pricing. He was upfront and honest about policy and interpreting the contract for my mother and I. We are a house full of women and we are always worried about being taken advantage of price-wise but we were not treated that way. Thank you for the excellent service and stunning new roof!”

Caroline H

“I chose Yancey for my reroof because of their business longevity. They've run into every situation imaginable and Brian addressed these concerns in the contract. Being told in advance is an explanation, being told after the fact is an excuse. They gave no excuses. The team working was always on time and did exceptional quality work with dry rot repair. The roof looks great and I expect it to work well for years to come.”
