Asphalt shingles remain the most popular residential roofing material in PA for good reason. Architectural shingles โ also called dimensional or laminated shingles โ provide a thicker, textured profile that mimics wood shake or slate. Wysox Roofing & Maintenance installs asphalt shingle roofing throughout Wysox, from three-tab to premium designer shingles.
The difference between a 15-year roof and a 30-year roof isn't the shingle โ it's the installation. Proper nail placement in the manufacturer's nailing zone, correct overlap between courses, ice-and-water shield at all vulnerable areas, and flashing that's sealed at every transition. Wysox Roofing & Maintenance follows the exact specs that keep the manufacturer warranty valid.
Our Shingle Roofing Process
Free Roof Estimate
Our estimator examines your current roofline, checks the condition of the underlayment and flashing, and presents shingle options with honest pricing. GAF, Owens Corning, CertainTeed โ you pick.
Tear-Off & Deck Prep
Old roof stripped to bare deck. We inspect the plywood or OSB sheathing for structural integrity, replace any compromised boards, and prep a clean, solid substrate for the new underlayment and shingles.
Waterproofing Layer
The waterproofing layer is what protects your home if a shingle ever fails. We install ice-and-water shield at every vulnerable point โ valleys, eaves, penetrations โ then roll synthetic underlayment over the entire deck. Drip edge directs water into gutters, not behind fascia boards.
Shingle Installation
Field shingles installed with proper exposure and overlap. Nailed per manufacturer specs โ 4 nails standard, 6 in high-wind zones. Starter strips at the eave prevent wind uplift. Ridge cap shingles finish every peak with integrated ridge vent for ventilation.
