There are several different ways to classify roofing shingles, including by material type, performance rating, and design.
In terms of material type, the most common types of roofing shingles are asphalt, wood, slate, and metal. Asphalt shingles are the most common and affordable type of roofing shingle, and are available in a wide range of colors and styles. Wood shingles are made from cedar or other types of wood, and are known for their natural, rustic appearance. Slate shingles are made from natural slate and are known for their durability and longevity. Metal shingles are made from aluminum or steel and are known for their durability and resistance to fire and wind.
In terms of performance rating, roofing shingles are typically classified as either standard-grade or premium-grade. Standard-grade shingles are the most basic and affordable type of roofing shingle, and are designed to provide basic protection for the roof. Premium-grade shingles are more expensive, but offer enhanced performance and durability, such as improved resistance to wind and hail.
In terms of design, roofing shingles are typically classified as either three-tab or architectural. Three-tab shingles are the most basic and affordable type of shingle, and are made of a single layer of material with three evenly spaced tabs. Architectural shingles, also known as dimensional or laminate shingles, are made of multiple layers of material and have a more dimensional, textured appearance. They are more expensive than three-tab shingles, but offer enhanced performance and a more attractive appearance.
