Shingle Roofing Solutions You Can Trust
We are your local roofing company, and with a combined 16 years of experience between ownership, we understand the specific demands that high desert temperatures, UV exposure, monsoon rains, and occasional hailstorms place on roofing materials. Our team is knowledgeable on the different neighborhoods and roofing issues that are unique to Las Cruces, NM architecture, from the flat-roofed adobe styles in historic districts to the pitched roofs common in newer subdivisions. That expertise allows us to recommend the right shingle system for every home.
Types of Shingle Roofing We Install
Not all shingles are created equal. Modern asphalt shingles come in a wide range of styles, compositions, and performance ratings. Three-tab shingles offer a clean, uniform appearance and remain a budget-friendly option for homeowners who want reliable protection without a premium price tag. These shingles typically carry a 20 to 25 year manufacturer warranty and perform well on properly ventilated roof systems.
Architectural shingles, also known as dimensional or laminated shingles, have become the industry standard for new construction and re-roofing projects. These shingles feature multiple layers of asphalt bonded together, creating a thicker profile that resists wind uplift, impact, and weathering far better than their three-tab counterparts. Many architectural shingle lines carry wind warranties up to 130 miles per hour and limited lifetime manufacturer warranties. We also install luxury and designer shingle lines that replicate the appearance of natural slate or cedar shake, giving homeowners high-end curb appeal without the weight or maintenance concerns associated with those natural materials.
Our Installation Process
We focus on using quality installation methods and quality roofing materials provided by the most professional suppliers. Every shingle roof we install follows a meticulous, step-by-step process designed to maximize performance and longevity. Our process begins with a thorough inspection of the existing roof deck and structure. We check for rotted decking, inadequate ventilation, and any structural concerns that could compromise the new roof system.
- Tear-off and deck preparation involve removing old shingles, underlayment, and flashing down to the bare decking so we can identify and repair any damage before new materials are applied
- Ice and water shield installation is applied at vulnerable areas including valleys, eaves, and penetrations to create a watertight barrier against moisture intrusion
- Synthetic underlayment application covers the entire roof deck, providing a secondary layer of weather protection beneath the shingles
- Drip edge and flashing installation ensures water is directed away from fascia boards and sealed around chimneys, vents, and skylights
- Shingle installation follows manufacturer specifications for nailing patterns, exposure rates, and offset requirements to ensure full warranty coverage
- Ridge cap and ventilation completion finishes the system with proper ridge ventilation and aesthetically matched cap shingles
Following manufacturer-approved installation methods is critical. As a GAF Master Elite certified contractor, we meet one of the roofing industry’s highest standards for installation excellence. Only about 3 percent of roofing contractors nationwide hold this distinction, which allows us to offer enhanced warranty options from GAF that cover both materials and workmanship.
Why Shingle Roofing Makes Sense in Our Climate
Homeowners in Las Cruces, Mesilla Park, San Pablo, University Park, & Mesilla, NM face intense sun exposure that can degrade roofing materials faster than in cooler climates. Modern shingles engineered with SBS-modified asphalt and ceramic-coated granules reflect more solar energy and resist thermal cracking far better than older shingle formulations. Cool roof technology in shingle design has advanced significantly, with some lines earning Energy Star ratings that can reduce attic temperatures and lower cooling costs.
While we install shingles, coatings including silicone and polyurethane, metal, modified bitumen, tile, TPO, and foam, shingle roofing continues to be the most requested service among residential customers. We also provide exterior services such as stucco, painting, windows and doors, and general remodeling services, making us a comprehensive solution for home improvement needs.
