If your South Euclid 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 South Euclid, and we strongly recommend upgrading to architectural shingles when you do.
Material selection in South Euclid is informed by the local architecture — primarily 1920s colonial revivals, 1940s-50s capes and bungalows, some 1960s ranches near Mayfield. The right shingle profile and color makes a real difference on these homes.
South Euclid's 1920s-1950s housing stock means we routinely deal with three or four shingle layers during tear-offs, and the older homes along Cedar and Warrensville Center frequently have original cedar shake underneath that has to come off down to the deck.
Cape Cods with front dormers are the city's signature housing type, and the dormer sidewall flashing is consistently where we find old roof leaks.
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 South Euclid single-family homes are completed in a single day, from tear-off through cleanup.
