Roof Shingles

What is a Roof Shingle?

Roof shingles are overlapping elements covering a roof to protect it from the elements. Roof shingle refers to these individual pieces that work together to form a durable, weather-resistant layer.  Typically made of asphalt, wood, or metal, they are designed to shed water and provide a durable, weather-resistant surface. Due to their ease of installation and maintenance, roof shingles are one of the most common types of roofing systems used in residential buildings.
