Composition Roofing

Why Seattle Homeowners Choose Composition Roofing

Composition roofs are made from a fiberglass base, coated in asphalt for weather resistance, and topped with mineral granules for UV protection and style. They offer a durable, lightweight roofing solution that holds up well in Seattle’s wet, windy climate. Their affordability, broad design options, and reliable performance make them a go-to choice for homeowners throughout the region.

Visual Appeal That Fits Any Style

You’ll find a wide range of colors, textures, and styles—some even mimic high-end materials like slate or wood shakes. This gives your home a refined look without the premium price or complex maintenance.

Built for Our Climate

Seattle’s moisture-heavy environment demands roofing that keeps water and moss out. Composition shingles do exactly that. Asphalt layers and mineral granules help shed rain and resist algae growth, keeping your roof in good condition through wet seasons.

Energy-Wise and Cost-Savvy

These shingles help maintain indoor temperature by blocking heat and insulating your roof. They’re more affordable than metal or tile and don’t add significant weight to your home’s structure—so you save on both material and labor costs.

Durable & Wind-Ready

Architectural and luxury-grade shingles offer excellent resistance to wind and heavy weather. With proper installation, they can stand up to Seattle’s winter storms and seasonal shifts with minimal wear and tear.

Eco-Sensible with a Lower Weight

While not fully recyclable, many composition shingles are made using some recycled content and can be repurposed after use. Their light weight also means less fuel used during transportation and simpler installation with fewer materials.

Easy Care & Safe

Most composition shingles carry a Class A fire rating, giving you peace of mind. Maintenance is minimal—just keep debris off the roof, check for damaged shingles occasionally, and schedule routine inspections.
