Asphalt shingles, also known as bituminous shingles, have become one of the most popular roofing materials worldwide. Renowned for their durability, versatility, and affordability, asphalt shingles have become the go-to choice for residential, commercial, and industrial roofing projects.
So, what exactly are asphalt shingles? They are made of a base material, usually fiberglass or organic felt, which is coated with a layer of asphalt and then topped with stone granules. This construction provides excellent protection against harsh weather conditions, including rain, snow, and UV rays.
