Shingle Roofing FAQs

Get answers to frequently asked questions about shingle roofing and find qualified shingle roofers in UK.

Can I install solar panels on a shingle roof?

Yes, it's generally possible to install solar panels on a shingle roof, but there are important considerations:
  • Roof condition: Your shingle roof should be in good condition and have a sufficient lifespan remaining to support the solar panels.
  • Structural integrity: The roof structure must be strong enough to handle the additional weight of the solar panels.
  • Orientation and shading: The roof's orientation and any shading from trees or other structures will affect the efficiency of the solar panels.
  • Professional installation: It's essential to have both a qualified roofing contractor and a reputable solar panel installer work together to ensure the solar panels are installed correctly without damaging the roof.
They will also assess the roof's suitability for solar panels and determine the best mounting methods.

How long does a shingle roof last?

The lifespan of a shingle roof depends on the shingle type, quality of installation, and environmental factors like weather and maintenance.
  • Architectural shingles: Typically last 25-30 years or more.
  • Three-tab shingles: Usually last 15-20 years.
Regular inspections and prompt repairs can help extend the life of any shingle roof.

What are the fire ratings for shingles?

Shingle fire ratings are classified based on their resistance to fire. The most common ratings are:
  • Class A: The highest fire rating, indicating excellent resistance to external fire exposure. Most asphalt shingles are Class A rated.
  • Class B: Offers moderate fire resistance.
  • Class C: Provides minimal fire resistance.
Always check the fire rating of the shingles you're considering and make sure they meet local building codes.

What is the best time of year to install a shingle roof?

The ideal time for shingle roof installation is during mild weather conditions, typically in spring or fall. Extreme temperatures, such as excessive heat or cold, can affect the adhesive properties of shingles and the sealants used during installation. Moderate temperatures allow for proper adhesion and sealing, ensuring a secure and weathertight roof. However, depending on the climate in your area, shingle roof installations can often be done year-round.
