    Contrary to other beliefs that shingles are very expensive, i would like to explain further that it's inexpensive considering that shingles roofing is a long term investment. First and Foremost, when you build your dream house you want it to be perfect. Something that can give you peace of mind. Something that can rejuvenate you ,something that will recharge your energy lost during a long days work. Having a warm or should i say hot temperature inside your home makes this all impossible to achieve except when you use an aircon. This is where shingles roofing come into place. Shingles Roofing doesn't only make your home cooler it also helps you save much on electricity. It also makes your home more elegant looking. Imagine this, Long Span Vs. Shingles Roofing. The Life Span of Shingles can surpass Long Span 2-3 times longer. You don't have to worry about the maintenance coz you don't have to re-apply paint and you don't have to worry much about leaks when you use Shingles. Aside from this, shingles have a manufacturer's warranty of 30 years. If the shingles have defects during the 30 years warranty,the manufacturer will replace it free of charge. Plus, there is also a 10 years WORKMANSHIP warranty from the installer separate from the manufacturer's warranty. If you got queries, i will be here to answer the best way that i can.

    Sir,it will depend on how steep the slope is. Some of the computation will be based on the actual steep of the slope. The steeper the slope the higher the labor cost. Philippines started to have shingles roofing since 1997 but only now lang sila napapansin..

    I just replaced my house roof recently w/ asphalt shingle roofing and it cost me $1,275 including the # 15 felt and ridge. I did the labor since they are very easy to install and the best time to install is summer. All you need are hammer or roofing staple, utility knife and a roof nail. My house roof is apprx: 2,750 sq ft.

    Yes it can. Depending on geographical area some asphalt are design to withstand the weather on your area, even a place where ten months in a year are raining. Asphalt shingle are capable to withstand 90 up to 130 mph wind, 10, 20, 30 years warranty too, depending on what label your buying. So its better to do some homework before buying or ask your sale's rep.

    Asphalt shingles are popular roofs in the US.

    However, we actually chose CPAC Monier (roof tiles) over asphalt shingles when we built our new house 3 years ago.

    During one of the stronger typhoons a couple of years ago, some 5-6 sheets of asphalt shingles from a couple of our immediate neighbors flew off.... Maybe wrong installation?.... Hhhmmm... However, it should be good since its underlayers are woodply and asphalt, I understand.

    I am surprised to see Avida Settings (Ayala project) using asphalt shingles, because Avida along the Molino road used CPAC. The same is true with Verdana who used CPAC (another Ayala project) along Daang-Hari Road.

    Ayala chose to install Asphalt Shingles on 1 of their projects because it has something to do with Reliability and Warranty. In case there's something wrong with their roofing the manufacturer warranties it thus saving Ayala a lot of money.

    Correct installation of a Certified Master Shingle Applicator is competent enough for this. One important tip for my fellow tsikoteers. if ever you would like to install shingles on your home, just make sure every piece of shingle installed has 6 roof nails installed NOT 4 nails. For inquiries and estimates just give me a private message. Our installers are CERTIFIED Master Roofer and Master Shingle Applicator in North America and Canada.

    I have a house in Avida Settings Phase 2...AVida Settings uses CPAC Monier Prestige, Tropical Green. The Asphalt shingles probably is installed in other Avida subdivisions but not in Settings.
