Types of Asphalt Shingle Roofs We Install
We specialize in the installation of four different types of asphalt shingles: three-tab asphalt shingles, architectural asphalt shingles, luxury asphalt shingles, and impact resistant shingles.
Three-Tab Asphalt Shingles
Three-tab shingles are the most basic roofing system available to homeowners today. Named for their appearance of having three, separate tabs these shingles have a uniform and flat appearance, but are affordable and reliable. Simple Roofing installs GAF Sovereign three-tab shingles to offer enhanced quality and durability.
Architectural Asphalt Shingles
Architectural shingles are a step up from three-tab shingles with a thicker construction that is designed to increase durability while adding more dimension and curb appeal to your roof. These shingles typically have a longer lifespan and can hold up to the tough climate in New Jersey making them a popular choice. Simple Roofing installs GAF Lifetime shingles for an architectural shingle you can count on.
Luxury Asphalt Shingles
If style is a bigger concern than your budget, luxury asphalt shingles might be what you’re looking for. While still affordable in the overall roofing market, luxury shingles are much more expensive than other shingle types. They’re designed to mimic the look of high-end roofing systems like cedar and slate and offer greater durability than traditional shingles. If you’re looking for a high-end roof at an affordable price, ask us about our luxury asphalt shingle options.
Impact Resistant Asphalt Shingles
New Jersey residents are no strangers to severe weather and the occasional hail storm. Impact resistant asphalt shingles can offer superior protection for your roof against storm damage.

The Pros and Cons of Asphalt Shingle Roofing
Asphalt shingle roofs are easily the most popular roofing system among New Jersey homeowners, but no product is perfect. It’s important to consider both the pros and cons of an asphalt shingle roof before making your final decision.
Pros of Asphalt Shingles
- Affordability: Every homeowner deserves a functioning and reliable roof and, combined with our flexible financing options, asphalt is the number one choice for homeowners on a budget.
- Variety: Between the variety of shingle styles and multitude of color and design options your choices for an asphalt shingle roof are virtually endless.
- Ease of Installation: Asphalt shingle roofs are fast and easy to install which both lowers the cost and decreases any disruption to your daily life.
Cons of Asphalt Shingles
- Not Environmentally Friendly: Unfortunately, asphalt shingles are not recyclable at the end of their lives. Additionally, they have one of the shortest lifespans of any roofing material which means they contribute to a lot of waste.
- Weather Damage: While new technology and innovations have led to shingles that are far more capable of enduring severe weather, overall asphalt shingles are still susceptible to weather damage, particularly from wind and hail.
Asphalt Shingle Roof FAQs
How much will I pay for a new asphalt shingle roof in New Jersey?
The typical cost of an asphalt shingle roof in New Jersey is between $7,500 and $15,000 depending on a variety of factors such as the size of your roof, specific shingle chosen, and the pitch of the roof. You can generally expect your asphalt shingle roof to cost between $500 and $1,000 per square.
What is the best type of shingle for homes in New Jersey?
We highly recommend our homeowners opt for architectural shingles. While they’re a bit more costly out the gate, they have a much longer life expectancy, they’re more durable, and they offer better curb appeal than three-tab shingles.
How long will an asphalt shingle roof last?
The length of time your roof lasts will depend on the specific shingles you choose for your roof. You can generally expect a three-tab shingle roof to last around 15-20 years and an architectural shingle roof to last 25-30 years. This will also greatly depend on the weather patterns as persistent storms can greatly decrease the lifespan of a roof.

Rafael from Simple Roofing was my primary point of contact. As a first-time home-buyer, my insurance required a new roof to maintain coverage, and Rafael guided me through the entire process. He listened to all my concerns, answered every … More question, and was available 24/7 throughout the project.
He also provided examples of previous work and clients, which gave me confidence in his team’s abilities. Their pricing was very reasonable compared to other companies.
I got quotes from three companies: Simple Roofing, Company B, and Company C. Company B quoted almost double, and Company C insisted on a metal roof.
I explained, FOR 3 HOURS, that a metal roof was not in my budget, and Company C then quoted me 3x the price for a regular shingle roof. Both Company B and C were suggesting financing these 2x and 3x priced roofing projects over 15–25 years, which I thought was insane—financing a project over such a long period and paying interest the whole time. Going with Simple Roofing ended up being a no-brainer: I got a fair price that I could finance over a much smaller time period.
Rafael carefully reviewed the roof, pointing out areas of concern and suggesting improvements such as better gutter routing for efficiency. Scheduling was easy, and the team completed the work in a single day.
Minor points to note: I did find a few nails in my driveway and lawn after the job was completed. To be fair: his team did collect about 99% of the nails and debris. It’s important to do your own scan afterward so you don’t accidentally drive over nails with your car or run over them with a lawn mower. That said, this is something a homeowner should generally expect to do after any roofing project, so it’s not a big deal.
Another small disappointment was that I did not get the option to keep any extra materials that I paid for. I’m not sure if there were any leftover materials or if the estimates were for exact amounts, but if there were any extras, they were taken by the crew. On the positive side, Rafael provided $100 worth of plywood at no extra charge for roof deck replacements, which I did need, so the final cost did not exceed the original estimate. I would assume the extra roof decking supplies were included in the estimate so it wasn't technically free, but he mentioned that if more roof decking was needed, that it would affect the final cost.
Rafael also worked closely with me and my financing team to ensure the roof could be financed, guiding me through every step.
Your mileage may vary, but from my experience, the process from price quoting to scheduling, talking with financing, and completing the job felt really quick. From start to finish, it was completed much faster than I anticipated.
Overall, I highly recommend Simple Roofing. They are trustworthy, local to the Northern NJ area, and professional. My new roof looks pristine, and their work exceeded my expectations. I would recommend them to anyone, whether for a small repair or a full roof replacement. -
Rafael is such a nice and polite and understanding person. His quality with Customer service is awesome. He sat down and explain to myself and my husband from top to finish and what I love about this company is the way Raphael explained … More everything they first of all took pictures with the drone of the condition of the roof sit down and explain it to us step-by-step step-by-step. Their workers were amazing when they were finished in two days you would never thought from looking down from the ground of all the work that they did by the time they finished everything was spotless. You will never thought that they were there until you took a look up and seeing such an amazing job that they did on the roof. I recommend this company to anyone who needs their roof replaced outstanding. They only allow me to give five stars if I could, I will give 100 stars.

I highly recommend Simple Roofing to anyone out there looking for a contractor to replace a new roof. I will also recommend my friends and family for their roofing projects. I have attached before and after installation of the new roof. … More Rafael Peralta walk me through everything in detail regarding this project, he was very flexible and work with your schedules. I’m super happy with the result and no complains from my tenant at all after the project was completed. They kept their words by removed the dumpster and swept clean the property. There are so many companies out there that can do the roofing project but I decided to choose Simple Roofing because this is the company that care about their customers and keep their customers happy throughout the project plus they have 5 stars rating for a reason which I cannot even describe enough to say how great they are.
