Benefits of Installing a New Asphalt Shingle Roof

Installing a new asphalt shingle roof on your Pennsylvania home doesn’t just prevent leaks or stop water damage. It also brings a host of lasting benefits that enhance your comfort, security, and peace of mind.

The most notable benefits include:

  • Increased Energy Efficiency: Modern asphalt shingles are designed to reflect more sunlight and insulate your home better, helping keep indoor temperatures stable throughout the year and reducing strain on your HVAC system.

  • Lower Insurance Premiums: A new, professionally installed roof can make your home safer and more resilient, which may qualify you for lower homeowner’s insurance rates.

  • Protection Against Mold: By preventing leaks and moisture buildup, a new asphalt roof helps protect your attic and walls from mold and mildew growth.

  • Improved Curb Appeal: With dozens of colors and styles available, today’s asphalt shingles can complement any home design, instantly boosting your property’s appearance.

  • Increased Property Value: A new roof is one of the most attractive upgrades to potential buyers, often providing an excellent return on investment if you ever decide to sell.

A new asphalt roof isn’t just a quick fix. It’s an upgrade that adds comfort, beauty, and reliability to your home. With expert installation from Solarshield’s local roofing specialists, you can count on results that look great and perform even better.

The Solarshield Installation Blueprint: What to Expect

Replacing your roof might sound daunting, but at Solarshield, we’ve perfected a process that keeps things simple and stress-free. We take care of every detail from start to finish, ensuring your new asphalt roof is installed correctly and efficiently - with minimal disruption to your daily routine. 

Here’s what you can expect when you work with us:

Step 1: Pre-Project Planning

Your roofing experience begins with a personal consultation - either at your home or in our Altoona showroom. We’ll take time to understand your needs, budget, and aesthetic preferences, then walk you through color and style options. Once you’ve made your selection, we confirm the project details, timeline, and installation schedule so you know exactly what to expect.

Step 2: On-Site Installation

On installation day, our crew arrives promptly within the scheduled window and begins setting up. We take great care to protect your landscaping, siding, and outdoor furniture before any work begins. The old shingles are carefully removed, the roof deck is inspected and prepared, and your new asphalt shingles are installed with precision - along with updated flashing and ventilation as needed.

Step 3: Daily Cleanup & Aftercare

We treat every property like it’s our own. At the end of each day, our crew performs a full cleanup - removing debris, nails, and materials to keep your yard safe and accessible. We understand that life doesn’t stop during a roofing project, so we work efficiently to minimize noise and disruption while maintaining a spotless workspace.

Step 4: Final Walkthrough & Warranty Handoff

Before we call the job complete, we conduct a thorough inspection with you to make sure every shingle, flashing, and ridge cap meets our exacting standards. We’ll review basic maintenance tips and provide your full warranty documentation. You will have complete confidence knowing your new roof is covered and built to last.

Our Customer Reviews

We just had a metal roof installed with all new spouting, and the process was very professional through the entire process. The crews doing the work were polite and answered any questions we had, and there was good communication throughout. We were never left wondering when or how something would be done. The work that was done is second to none as far as quality. It looks amazing and it gives us peace of mind with winter coming that we won't have any issues because they repaired "soft" spots where needed and other potential issues of concern. I would highly recommend them if you are looking to get a new roof.

There was good communication with Solarshield from the initial visit to installation completion. Questions were answered quickly and the whole staff was responsive ensuring calls were returned. The installation crew was excellent, arriving and completing the job as planned, taking the time to ensure the site was cleaned up before departing. They took care of several small items during the installation that really made the completed roof look fantastic.
