Roof Talk-101  What Is The Difference Between Architectural Shingles and 3-Tab Shingles

What are architectural shingles?

Architectural shingles, also called laminated or dimensional shingles, are made with a heavier base that creates a stronger, thicker shingle which gives a three-dimensional look to your roof.

What is the difference between 3-tab shingles and architectural shingles?
