"I have to start with... wow, I'm impressed! Manuel and ALL his team are very hard working individuals, with great experience, dedication to their profession, very trustworthy, honest and responsible. These are just few of so many good qualities they all have. We love Manuel and his team. They are like family to us. My home will always welcome them and I know I can count on them for any future work I might need at home. The Gualan Brothers have done an amazing job transforming our second home completely renewing our roof, new shingles, new siding, new windows and doors. They also removed a fireplace for us that needed to be gone. Also, our house had a back exterior wall on the second level that we noticed was bulging out and away from the house frame but thanks to Manuel the problem was corrected, fixed and resolved and I was able to get a good night sleep and peace of mind, thank you Manuel! We couldn't be more happier and pleased with their service. They are not only the best on what they do, but they are awesome people with a kind and caring heart. We send our sincere appreciation to Manuel and his team and look forward to more great experiences with them. Can't wait for the front porch awning coming next! I recommend GUALAN BROTHERS to anyone. Be safe guys, thank you again! Gracias Manuel a usted y a su equipo por una labor excelente. Por que usted tiene nuestra confianza y apreciacion. Estamos muy contentos de haber tenido la oprtunidad de tenerlo, conocerle y compartir con usted y su familia. Siempre son bienvenidos en nuestro hogar y espero que en el futuro podamos disfrutar de su servicio y compa~ia nuevamente. Los aprecio mucho, muchas bendiciones. Que Dios los continue bendiciendo, ayudando y protegiendo. Se le quiere de gratis! Muchas, muchas gracias. Y un cordial y especial saludo a su hermano mayor con mucho respeto. Mil bendiciones!

Architectural shingles last 25 to 30 years, while standard 3-tab asphalt shingles last 15 to 20 years. This extended lifespan results from their thicker construction and higher-quality materials. Environmental factors such as extreme temperatures, strong winds, and heavy precipitation can affect longevity in any region. Regular maintenance, including clearing debris and addressing minor issues promptly, helps maximize the service life of either shingle type.
Architectural shingles justify their additional cost through superior longevity, enhanced durability, and better aesthetics. While they cost 20% to 40% more than standard 3-tab options, their longer lifespan (25 to 30 years versus 15 to 20) means fewer replacements over time.
They also offer better resistance to wind and weather, a more attractive dimensional appearance, and stronger manufacturer warranties. For most homeowners, these benefits provide good value despite the higher initial investment.
30-year architectural shingles cost between $250 and $1,000 per square (100 square feet) installed. Premium brands tend toward the higher end of this spectrum, while more economical options fall in the lower range. These figures represent complete installation costs and don't include potential expenses for removing existing roofing materials, which can add disposal fees of $40 to $60 per ton.
Architectural shingles do require specific installation methods to ensure proper performance and warranty coverage. Their heavier weight and dimensional profile necessitate particular attention to underlayment quality, fastener placement, and overlap measurements. Manufacturer specifications must be followed precisely to maintain warranty protection.
Professional installers understand these requirements and have the proper tools and training to implement them correctly. Improper installation can compromise both performance and warranty coverage, making professional installation particularly important for this premium roofing material.
