Asphalt shingles are the most common roofing material in Bedford Heights for good reason: cost-effective, available in dozens of colors and styles, and (with quality installation) deliver 25-30 years of service. Atlas Roofing installs GAF Timberline HDZ architectural shingles as our standard upgrade — the most-installed shingle in North America.
Material selection in Bedford Heights is informed by the local architecture — primarily mid-century ranches and split-levels, 1970s colonials, light industrial flat-roof buildings. The right shingle profile and color makes a real difference on these homes.
Bedford Heights has a meaningful share of light industrial property along Northfield and Rockside — flat TPO and EPDM systems on warehouse and small-manufacturing buildings make up a significant portion of our work here, alongside the residential ranches and split-levels.
The mid-century split-levels off Solon Road have the multi-elevation rooflines that need ice-and-water shield at every transition, the same pattern we see throughout the southeast Cuyahoga suburbs.
Architectural asphalt shingles typically last 25-30 years in Northeast Ohio's climate, depending on installation quality, ventilation, and exposure. 3-tab shingles last 15-20 years.
Architectural (also called dimensional) shingles are thicker, last longer, look better, and are the standard choice today. 3-tab shingles are the older flat single-layer style — cheaper but shorter-lived.
GAF is the largest roofing manufacturer in North America, with strong color/style options and warranty backing. As a 2026 GAF Certified™ installer, we offer the GAF System Plus Limited Warranty when GAF materials are used throughout.
