Still have 3-tab shingles on your Beachwood home? Most 3-tab roofs installed during the 1950s–1980s era are at or past their expected lifespan. When it's time to replace, upgrading to GAF architectural (dimensional) shingles gives you significantly better wind resistance, a richer appearance, and a longer warranty — for a modest cost difference. Atlas Roofing & Restoration provides free inspections and written estimates throughout Beachwood and Cuyahoga County.
3-tab shingles were the standard for decades but architectural shingles have largely replaced them for good reason — they're thicker, heavier, more wind-resistant, and look significantly better on a home. For Beachwood homeowners replacing an aging 3-tab roof, the upgrade to architectural shingles is almost always worth the modest additional cost.
"What a divine appointment from beginning to completion. Trustworthy, competent, efficient, polite, orderly team work. A big smile comes on my face every time I leave and return to my home and see my beautiful new roof."

Schedule Free InspectionWhen Beachwood homeowners replace aging 3-tab roofs, the vast majority choose to upgrade to architectural shingles — and for good reason. The GAF Timberline HDZ, the most popular choice, offers a Class 4 impact resistance rating (important in hail-prone Northeast Ohio), 130 mph wind resistance, and a dramatically improved dimensional appearance compared to the flat look of 3-tab. The price difference between a 3-tab replacement and an architectural upgrade is typically modest — often just a few hundred dollars on a standard Beachwood home.
