Shingles: Shadow Accent

Reviewed by:
Rosemary Thornton

Architectural shingles are popular for both their looks and their endurance. This shingle comes with a 30-year warranty and is rated to withstand winds up to 70 miles per hour.

It has a 5" exposure and features GAF's "Shadow Accent", intended to create the look of a wooden shingle. Made of fiberglass, it's offered in nine colors (shown here in Charcoal Blend).

Complementing ridge cap shingles are also available.

Timberline 30 shingles measure 12" by 36-15/16".

Price: $18.49 per bundle (three bundles to a square) (October 2006).
