Shingles are Easy to Install and Affordable One of the key benefits of choosing a standard [shingle-roofing](https://gogryphon.com/roofing/shingle-roofing) product is that this type of material is relatively easy to install. This simply means that the product is convenient and more affordable than other types of roofing materials. ### 2. Shingles Can Accommodate Any Look The composition shingles that are widely available today are available in a huge selection of colors, brands and types. In short, the possibilities are endless when it comes to creating the perfect look for a new or existing home. Because of their incredible low maintenance and the fact that they can easily be walked upon without becoming damaged, shingles have endured for many years. Asphalt shingles, however, will simply not provide the look of tile, metal or shake roofing. These are personal preferences that should be left up to the homeowner as a way to determine what type of roofing material or roofing product will work best for their particular application or need. ### 3. Shingles Offer Fire Protection and Mildew and Mold Resistance Shingles are also considered a class-A fire protection material and are often treated to resist mildew and mold. ### 4. Shingles are Susceptible to High Wind Damage One important consideration with regard to shingle roofing is that it is often more susceptible to being blown off by high winds. ### 5. Shingles Can Lead to Attic Ventilation Related Problems Or Issues Another key concern with regard to choosing asphalt shingles for a roofing application is that of proper ventilation. This simply means that if a home has attic ventilation related problems or issues, this can actually reduce the overall longevity of shingle roofing products. Maintaining adequate ventilation at all times in a house that has an asphalt shingle roof is essential. ## Get The Job Done Right Every Time with a Roofing Professional Working with a [professional roofing contractor](https://gogryphon.com/roofing) is the best way to ensure that all aspects of proper roof condition are addressed.
