If your Richmond Heights 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 Richmond Heights, and we strongly recommend upgrading to architectural shingles when you do.
Material selection in Richmond Heights is informed by the local architecture — primarily mid-century ranches, split-levels, colonials. The right shingle profile and color makes a real difference on these homes.
Richmond Heights' mid-century ranches and split-levels are mostly into their multi-cycle re-roofing era — original flashing and venting are typical replacement points.
The 1960s-70s split-levels along Highland and Richmond Roads have multi-elevation rooflines that need ice-and-water shield at every transition.
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 Richmond Heights single-family homes are completed in a single day, from tear-off through cleanup.
