Why Do Homeowners in Farmington Choose Asphalt Shingles?
Homeowners in Farmington often choose asphalt shingles because they are widely available, work on many residential roof shapes, and offer several price and style options. On Farmington homes, the shingles shed rain and snow, while the underlayment and flashing help keep water out at roof joints and openings.

How Do Asphalt Shingles Age on Farmington Homes?
Asphalt shingles on Farmington homes can wear out before they start leaking. On Farmington roofs, we check whether the shingles lie flat, stay sealed to the row below, remain flexible, and still have enough surface granules to protect the asphalt. On a roof in Farmington, we use the shingle condition to decide whether the shingles still protect the home or need replacement. Winter weather can also affect a roof in Farmington because melting snow can refreeze near roof edges and valleys.
When Should You Install a New Asphalt Shingle Roof in Farmington?
You may need a new asphalt shingle roof in Farmington when wear or damage affects several parts of the roof. Before recommending replacement in Farmington, we inspect the shingles, flashing, wooden roof deck and previous repair areas.
What Is an Asphalt Shingle Made Of?
An asphalt shingle installed on a roof in Farmington contains a fiberglass mat, asphalt coating, mineral granules and an adhesive seal strip. In the shingles used for Farmington projects, fiberglass provides strength, asphalt resists water, granules protect the surface and the seal strip helps neighboring shingles bond.
What Asphalt Shingle Options Do You Install in Farmington?
For Farmington homes, we install architectural shingles and can also install three-tab shingles when you prefer a flatter, less dimensional shingle. Before installation starts in Farmington, we compare appearance, manufacturer wind ratings, warranty terms and price for the products you are considering.
What Does Asphalt Shingle Roofing Installation in Farmington Include?
Asphalt shingle installation in Farmington includes new or rebuilt flashing, inspection of the wooden roof deck, wind-resistant shingle fastening, and extra attention at exposed edges and ridges.
The Farmington installation also includes waterproofing at vulnerable roof edges, flashing and seals around roof openings, and an attic-ventilation check.
After we remove the old roofing in Farmington, we photograph any damaged roof decking. Before replacing damaged wood on a roof in Farmington, we explain the added cost.
These are some of the installation details we focus on for Farmington homes:
- Wind rating matched to the house: Shingles are rated for a wind speed, and the right rating depends on how exposed your house is rather than on the city it sits in. We set it from your own site.
- All-new metal flashing: We replace the metal at chimneys, walls and vents rather than resealed. Sealant over old flashing buys a season and hides the problem in the meantime.
- Full tear-off to bare wood: Every layer comes off, including any second roof laid over the first. Tear-off is the only moment anyone gets to see the wood your roof is fastened to.
- Decking repaired before anything goes on: On a house built around 2002, finding a few soft boards is normal rather than a surprise. We photograph them, price them with you, and replace them so the new roof has something solid to fasten to.
- Ventilation corrected while the deck is open: A shingle cooked from underneath by a hot attic will not reach its rated life. Correcting the airflow is cheapest while the roof is off and is the single best way to add years to it.
- Ice-and-water membrane at the eaves: A waterproof membrane runs along the bottom edge of the roof, where snow melts and refreezes and pushes water back up under the shingles.
The shingle is the part you choose and the part you can see. Everything underneath it is what decides whether the roof reaches the life it is rated for, which is why we specify all of it in writing before we start.
