3-TAB SHINGLES
If you're considering the Premier PRO SeriesTM, you've already made a significant decision by
opting for Dimensional Shingles, which are standard on the PRO Series. This choice speaks
volumes about your commitment to quality and longevity.
Let's delve deeper into why Dimensional Shingles are a superior option:
COST VS. VALUE: While it's true that 3-Tab shingles are more budget-friendly upfront, Dimensional
Shingles offer a better long-term value proposition. Their higher initial cost is justified by their
numerous benefits, making them a wise investment for those looking for durability and performance.
DURABILITY: Dimensional Shingles are constructed with higher-quality materials and multiple
layers, making them approximately 50% thicker than 3-Tab shingles. This extra thickness translates
to enhanced durability, ensuring your roof can withstand the elements and maintain its integrity over
time. By opting for Dimensional Shingles, you're choosing a roofing solution that will protect your
Tuff Shed for years to come.
AESTHETICS: One of the standout features of Dimensional Shingles is their aesthetic appeal.
Their varied sizes and shapes create a textured, three-dimensional look that adds depth and
character to your roof. Additionally, the vibrant colors available with Dimensional Shingles,
combined with the subtle variances of the grains, result in a visually stunning finish that enhances
the overall appearance of your Tuff Shed.
WIND RESISTANCE: In areas prone to strong winds, the wind resistance rating of your shingles
is crucial. Dimensional Shingles typically have a higher wind resistance rating than 3-Tab shingles,
ranging from 80mph to 120mph compared to 60mph for 3-Tab shingles. This superior wind resistance
provides added peace of mind, knowing that your Tuff Shed is protected against gusty conditions.
LIFESPAN: While 3-Tab shingles may offer a serviceable lifespan
of 7-15 years, Dimensional Shingles redefine expectations with an
average lifespan of around 18-20 years. Under optimal conditions,
Dimensional Shingles can last even longer, making them a smart
choice for those looking for a roofing solution that will stand the
test of time.
IN CONCLUSION, while 3-Tab shingles may be more budget
friendly initially, Dimensional Shingles offer unmatched benefits
in terms of durability, aesthetics, wind resistance, and lifespan.
By choosing Dimensional Shingles for your Tuff Shed, you're
investing in a high-quality roofing solution that will enhance the
overall performance and appearance of your structure for years
to come.
