Upgrading from 3-tab to architectural shingles is one of the best long-term value upgrades you can make to a Lyndhurst home — better appearance, longer life, stronger wind ratings. Atlas Roofing installs architectural shingles (GAF Timberline HDZ standard) on roofs throughout Lyndhurst.
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.
Typically 15-25% more for materials. Lifecycle cost is usually lower because they last 5-10 years longer.
We don't recommend it. Layovers (installing new shingles over old) shorten the new roof's life, void most warranties, and trap heat. Tear-off is the right approach.
GAF Timberline HDZ as our standard. Designer upgrades available.
