Although we have a decade of experience meeting all types of roofing requirements in Ottawa, the National Capital Region and surrounding areas, Toitures D.S. Roofing does not recommend any types of residential roofing shingle and doesn't even work exclusively with a particular product. Although we have so many years of experience providing roofing services in Ottawa, we know that there are certain types of shingles that are well suited to particular types of roof slopes.
We only work with manufacturers or products that we strongly believe in and know provide the best value to homeowners. We've limited our selection to just architectural laminate shingles because this specific type offers the best overall performance. This shingle consists of a fiberglass mat covered with asphalt and coated with granules.
The main things to consider when choosing roof shingles:
How many years do you want the roof to last?
Does the roof have a slight or steep slope?
Is the roof exposed to extreme weather conditions, such as high winds or hailstorms?
Types:
We use two types of shingles: organic shingles and fiberglass shingles. Organic shingles are made from waste paper saturated with asphalt to make them waterproof. Fiberglass shingles are made of fiberglass at the base. Either way, fiberglass shingles are considered the highest quality roofing material due to their long life and strength.
