Asphalt shingles are the most common roofing material in Solon 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 Solon is informed by the local architecture — primarily 1970s-80s colonials, 1990s-2000s custom builds, newer luxury contemporaries. The right shingle profile and color makes a real difference on these homes.
Solon's housing is mostly newer than the inner-ring eastern suburbs — 1970s through current, with substantial 1990s-2010s custom-build inventory in the south and west subdivisions.
The custom builds along Solon Boulevard and the developments off Cannon Road often have steep complex roof geometries with multiple dormers, valleys, and skylights, where we focus heavy detail on every flashing transition.
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.
