Shingle roofs are the most common roof in the Huntsville area (and America, too). For a good reason, they are the most economical roof type that truly brings the best bang for your buck. There are many styles, qualities, and colors to choose from. Depending on the quality choice, they generally last from 20 to 50 years.

The 50-year shingle generally has a taller (more material density), and stylish profile that gives the added benefit of hail and wind resistance.
