It’s no surprise many homeowners choose asphalt roofing in Minnesota because asphalt shingles are the most popular roofing material in the U.S. At Schmidt Roofing, we recommend them because they strike a great balance between upfront and long-term costs. Shingles also offer a great deal of design variety. Traditional black shingles are one option. You can also choose from a range of colors and even shingles that mimic other roofing materials.
"Took care of roof and siding storm damage. Our insurance was not easy to work with and they helped with the process. They were able to find a near match to our no longer made siding when the insurance wouldn't cover every side. Logan was very responsive any time I had a question or needed something followed up on." - Dan .O
Asphalt shingles in Minnesota do need maintenance over the years. The good news is that if you’re proactive, the maintenance is relatively simple and affordable. That’s why we recommend scheduling an annual inspection of your roof. Our inspector can identify any minor issues, such as dislodged or curled shingles. You can then have us fix those issues immediately rather than waiting for them to worsen and become more expensive to repair.
The most basic form of asphalt shingles is very thin and light. The industry often calls these three-tab shingles due to the way they interlock. A main benefit to these shingles is that they’re among the cheapest roofing materials available. A downside is that they don’t last as long as some other asphalt shingles do. Still, that’s a cost-effective trade-off for many homeowners.
An alternative to three-tab shingles is architectural shingles. You may also see this referred to as laminated shingles because they have additional layers. Some brands also refer to them as designer or luxury shingles. This is due to the more upscale nature of the product. The added thickness allows for better protection, durability, and energy efficiency. It also allows for greater design space, including complex patterns and shadows.

When should you replace asphalt roofing? It depends on the expected lifespan of the material, and the key is to replace it ahead of schedule. Don’t wait for the existing roof to fail, as then you’ll be dealing with structural repair due to water damage in addition to replacing the roof. Basic shingles typically last about 15 years. Architectural shingles usually last around 30 years.
