Since hurricane Ike’s wind damages hit our area back in September of ’08, we’ve been replacing many roofs that have sustained damaged shingles. Ike generated sustained winds upwards of 70 miles per hour in our region of the country. Homeowners since have been thrust into the shingle market, having many choices of materials from which to chose. The most common roofing material is an asphalt composition shingle, commonly known as a 3-tab shingle. This type of shingle has a manufacturer’s warranty for 25 years and is rated to perform in up to 60 MPH winds.
