When a roof can account for as much as 40% of the average home's exterior, many factors weigh into the choice of materials.  Some surfaces are more beautiful than others.  Some offer greater resilience or endurance.  Some are more affordable.  But the one roofing surface which offers all those attributes in balance is the asphalt shingle.

Now accounting for about 80% of the residential roof surfacing in the United States, asphalt shingles are measured against a variety of standards that evaluate fire and wind resistance, tear strength, and other key performance indicators.  For fiber glass shingles, ASTM D3462 is considered the most important.  

This comprehensive standard covers tear strength, nail-pull resistance, and pliability, among other shingle characteristics.

Over 20 CertainTeed fiber glass shingles are independently certified by Underwriters Laboratories to meet the tough ASTM D3462 standard.

Carolina Home Services, Inc. is pleased to offer high quality roofing products such as the CertainTeed Roofing products. The ASTM D3462 standard is important for our area, where we are exposed to higher than normal winds. Not all shingles are created equal! Not all home improvement companies are created equal!

Most quality minded home owners want quality roofing products and a reliable, professional contractor who has proven his professionalism by his longevity in the business.

Another consideration should be the knowledge level of the contractor. What kind of license, if any, does the contractor have?? (See our license page to learn the difference.) Does the contractor carry an active insurance policy for general liability and workers compensation? These insurances protect you, the property owner, and are very costly for the contractor to maintain. A number of lowball prices will not be properly licensed, experienced, and insured. Furthermore, you will likely not be able to find them should you have a problem with your new roof.
