Looking For A Roof Material That Is The Perfect Balance Between Affordability & Durability?
We know that having a new roof installed is no small investment. This can be one of the more significant purchases you'll make for your home, so we take this seriously.
For decades, asphalt shingle roofs have been hands down the most popular form of new roof installations. They offer you the best bang for your buck in terms of price and longevity.
And in recent years, the technology behind asphalt shingle roofs has improved significantly. These days they are a blend of mainly fibreglass with some asphalt to protect against harsh weather and high winds.
Benefits & Features
Blow-off Protection
High winds and roofs aren't exactly best friends. Our shingles come with printed nail line guides. While our roof installers are already skilled in the craft, having the extra guides makes it even quicker to install correctly to prevent them from blowing off in the wind.
Exceptional Bonding
In addition to the nail guides, our shingles come with sealant strips along their bottom edges. The sun's heat will activate the strips to become extra-sticky to create a super strong bond, ensuring maximum protection against wind uplift and water penetration.
Built-in Algae Resistance
Embedded in the shingles are special algae-resistant granules to help prevent the growth of blue-green algae. Algae on shingles will cause black stains, discolouration and streaks, not to mention long-term damage and weakening of the shingles.
Core Strength Is Its Fiberglass Mat
The shingles mat is coated top and bottom with weathering asphalt and then surfaced with protective, coloured granules. This makes for a built-tough material for excellent durability and structural integrity.
Types of Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt shingle roof installation offers homeowners a choice of three main types
- 3-Tab Shingles: These are the most basic and affordable option, featuring a single layer of material and a uniform appearance. But we only install these when doing repair work on a roof that already have these installed. There are better options priced similarly that offer a lot more protection for Hamilton and surrounding cities' weather seasons.
- Architectural Shingles: Also known as laminated or dimensional shingles, these provide multiple layers for enhanced durability and an attractive, dimensional appearance. These are the main shingles we install, as they offer the best balance of cost and durability.
- Luxury Shingles: These premium shingles provide the highest level of durability and aesthetic appeal, often mimicking the look of traditional wood or slate roofing. However, many of these types of shingles can be very cost prohibited, and installing a rubber roof at that point makes more sense.
High-Performance Roofing Shingle Brands
We're very selective regarding brands of asphalt shingles we're willing to install on new roofs. You're only as good as the products you install. We use three main types of asphalt shingles by two highly regarded brands for most of the residential home roof installations we complete.
Color & Style Options
Combined across all of our shingle brands and types, we have over 30 colour options to choose from. You'll be sure to find the perfect colour to match your house.
Questions About The Euroshield Roofing System?
Are Euroshield rubber roofing products made in Canada?
What are Euroshield rubber roofing products made out of?
There is no better option against hail and any possible damage like heavy tree branches than a Euroshield rubber roof. All Euroshield roofs have achieved the highest rating of UL2218 Class 4 for Impact and are Listed and Labelled with QAI Labs (An accredited testing facility for the USA and Canada).
The warranty coverage provided is for hail impact up to 2" in diameter and for 50 years.
However, they have gone a step further with their own testing with much larger objects and weight. Euroshield holds up beautifully. To date, there have been ZERO hail damage claims against any Euroshield product.
Once again, the Euroshield roof excels with protection against high winds. It has passed the Modified Dade County test in compliance with the CCMC guidelines for wind uplift and wind-driven rain to 170 kph. In 3rd party wind testing (ASTM D3161-modified) at PRI Labs in Tampa, Florida, Euroshield Panel Loc products achieved 250kph straight-line wind testing pass for 2 hours with no blow-off. Euroshield roof products have a unique interlocking set of panels that hold the leading edge in a lockdown position. This assures that the corners will never curl, lift, or blow off, even in extreme wind conditions.
Roofing materials undergo a rigorous testing process in a verified laboratory to ensure the product meets a specific performance spec. Roofing materials are given a score based on a class of 1-4, with 4 being the highest. This score is for the roof materials' impact resistance and can be shown to provide how durable the product is.
Euroshield roofs come with a Limited Lifetime warranty of at least 50 years. This is hands down one of, if not the best warranty you can get for a roof. There is a good chance this will be the last roof you'll ever install. It will also add value to your home and offer excellent resale value if you sell your home.
The shingles range from 5-8.5lbs per panel, depending on the style you select.You don't need to add additional structural reinforcement to install a Euroshield roof onto your home.
It is always best to remove the shingles to check for damage underneath, including rot or leaking areas.

Like with anything exposed to the harsh sun rays full time, the product will slightly change colour over time. However, Euroshield roof products contain high amounts of carbon black, making them highly resistant to UV rays. This roof system provides the best performance to colour fading over time than anything else on the market.
The other good news is that Euroshield products have the colour go all the way through the whole piece. During the manufacturing process, colour is added to the mix, ensuring it will never peel, flake, or crack. In the worst case, if the shingle gets scratched, the colour will remain identical because the colour goes all the way through the product. There is no coating or layer of colour added on top.
Absolutely! A Euroshield is probably one of the safest roofing systems to walk on. This makes any future work to your home, including siding, windows, electrician work etc, a breeze.
Like a new car smell, it will fade over a short time. After installation, there might be a slight rubber smell, but rest assured it won't last long once exposed to the outdoor elements.
