The shingles are made of a base (organic or fiberglass) that is saturated with asphalt and coated with minerals on one side to resist weathering.

Composition roofs can be overlaid with a new roof if the initial roof is a single layer and in good condition | ||

| Slate | Slate is a beautiful option for roofing, but an expensive one. Slate can come in a variety of colors, with the best quality product coming from Vermont. Some slate can be found in Pennsylvania and China. (Some high quality slate can be found in China, but the consumer should be sure to order the highest grade possible to ensure quality slate.) Slate is a heavy roofing material and can only be used on roofs that can withstand its weight. | ||
