Shingle Roofing

A New Dimension of Shingle Systems

When you think shingle roofing, forget the image of the shingle roofs you used to know. Sure, those are still available, but shingle roofing has evolved in significant ways. The new standard in Florida for both new roofs and re-roofs are architectural grade shingles (also known as laminate or dimensional shingles). They provide Grade A fire protection, an enhanced aesthetics, longer wear, and greater protection against damage than the composition roofs of years past.

The decision to choose one installation over the other usually involves a little of vanity, cost and performs over time.

RAMCON is a certified contractor for the leading manufacturers in the industry.

Architectural shingles may come with interlocking tabs used during installation.
