"They left supplies in my yard for over a month and a half. They were supposed to fix a light they messed up & pick up the supplies. The project manager kept setting up appointments with me & then didn't show or say anything. Stuff was ruining my grass so we put them on Craigslist."

SlopePro is not your ordinary roofing company. Founded by third generation roofers, we deliver to you a detailed line by line scope of work with an estimated price. Our skilled roofers can quickly execute your job. We then take the worry out of wondering if the job was done right by re-inspecting the job and giving you the peace of mind that comes with a comprehensive warranty. SlopePro is the ONLY roofing company you will ever need again.
"After a section of our flashing had broken loose as the result of very high winds, and about half that section ultimately then ending-up actually breaking all of the way off, we reached-out to others whom we know to be highly experienced, reliable, and well-respected professional resources for a recommendation, from which SlopePro Roofing came back immediately, and without hesitation. As this occurred over the weekend, on Sunday… I called and left a message with SlopePro. Very first-thing the following morning, Monday, SlopePro was on my phone in response to my voicemail from late the previous day and, to my relief, was very surprisingly able to schedule Justin to come to our home mid-day of that very same day to evaluate the damage and provide a quote. The next two actions that resulted are very much the driving forces behind our being not only willing, but actually more than happy to take time out of our demanding schedule like this to ensure that SlopePro is recognized here, as follows: #1) After his evaluation of the -whole- of our existing roofing system/environment - - - not just merely the flashing damage for which he had been called out about - - - Justin informed me of a very routine minimum charge which would always apply to any contracted work, regardless of the work to be performed, and further then also informed me as well of several other discrepancies that he had identified, as the result of his very comprehensive inspection. It was - - - in that moment, and continuing on until now - - - when Justin and SlopePro immediately began to win our respect, and our business - - - current and future - - - as he-himself proceeded to the committing of SlopePro’s otherwise *additional* time and resources over those which would have instead been just minimally needed, in order to just simply repair/replace only the flashing (while of course still enforcing the minimum charge) and then moving-on. But… instead now also… of his/their very-own voluntary offering… additionally include the repair of ALL the current discrepancies across our entire roofing system and environment for that same minimum charge. Which - - - as is quite substantially noteworthy and important to acknowledge here - - - included upwards of about 15 to 20 missing asphalt shingle flaps in our instance! And… (yes, there’s more) in light of the timely and pending sale of our home, they took things even further by making accommodation to schedule the work for the very next-day, Tuesday. Things you just don’t see very often, if at-all, any more. #2) Well, #2 is as straightforward and simple as one would hope it to be… Not only did “they” show-up the next day and perform exceptional quality repairs… as it turns out… the roofing professional who showed-up to execute those quality repairs in our instance was non other than Alden Echols himself. President, and one of SlopePro’s 3rd generation family owners! Needless to say, the repairs were all completed to the highest standard, and they were actually even able to so closely match the color of our 16 year old shingles that you genuinely cannot distinguish which are the old original shingles, from the newly-repaired/replacement flaps! TO SUM IT ALL UP: I do recall, from days of old, these seemingly now non-existent concepts of ‘Integrity’, and ‘Going Above-And-Beyond’, which seem to be reserved these days for inclusion in merely folklore… novels… and movies. But after our experience with Alden and Justin and all the SlopePro Roofing team, I’m encouraged to have personal affirmation that these do indeed still exist around us, even today. So a big-fat and very genuine “thanks!”, once again to SlopePro! AND… a resounding “YES”… We would of course, unquestionably recommend SlopePro to everyone with any roofing needs whatsoever. Very Sincerely, Dan and Irene Allred Varina, VA"

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.
