3-Tab to Architectural Shingle Upgrade in Lansdale, PA — Laminated Shingle Installation
The 22-year-old 3-tab shingles on this Lansdale cape cod had deteriorated past the repair threshold — visible cracking along the tab lines on the south-facing slope, widespread granule loss exposing the fiberglass mat, and two confirmed daylight points at the ridge penetrations visible from the attic. The homeowners had patched isolated areas twice in the prior three years, and both repairs had failed within 18 months.
We tore off the single existing layer, performed a full decking inspection, and addressed minor deterioration at the ridge board before installing the new system. The finished roof is laminated architectural shingles in Weathered Wood — a dimensional profile that replaced the flat, dated appearance of the 3-tab with a shadow-line texture that significantly changed how the 1970s cape cod reads from the street. The installation used matched starter strip and ridge cap from the same product line, which keeps the manufacturer’s material warranty intact and qualifies the roof for our 5-year written workmanship warranty.
The project ran two days. On Day 1 we completed the tear-off and decking work. On Day 2 the full shingle system was installed and all flashing was completed.
Project Documentation

"We got four estimates before going with Right Deal. Flavio was the only contractor who got on the roof himself, showed us exactly where the problem was, and gave us a written breakdown of every line item. Two years later, not a single issue."
