You may be surprised to find that asphalt shingles aren’t just one, singular entity; they can be made up of many different shapes, colors, and designs, though—as the name suggests—their components are comprised of similar materials no matter where you go or who you buy them from.
Curious on what sorts of shingle roofing types there are out there in the residential roofing market? Grab a drink and settle down—we’ve got you covered.
