If your Lyndhurst home still has 3-tab shingles, you're due for a roof. 3-tab shingles last 15-20 years on average — significantly less than the 25-30 year life of modern architectural shingles. Atlas Roofing replaces 3-tab roofs throughout Lyndhurst, and we strongly recommend upgrading to architectural shingles when you do.
Material selection in Lyndhurst is informed by the local architecture — primarily mid-century ranches, split-levels, 1960s colonials. The right shingle profile and color makes a real difference on these homes.
Lyndhurst's mid-century ranches along Mayfield Road and Brainard Road have the long, low-pitch rooflines typical of the era — those are exactly the configurations where 3-tab shingles aged out fastest, and most of our Lyndhurst work is replacement on homes still wearing their original or first-replacement asphalt.
The 1960s colonials closer to Legacy Village have more complex roof geometries with multiple dormers, where we focus on flashing detail at every sidewall.
Better appearance, longer life (25-30 years vs 15-20), stronger wind ratings, better warranty coverage. The cost difference is usually 15-25% but the lifecycle cost is lower.
If you really want flat 3-tab shingles, we can install them. But we'd recommend reconsidering — architectural shingles look better and outlast them by years.
Most Lyndhurst single-family homes are completed in a single day, from tear-off through cleanup.
