Many owners in the construction of light steel villa, many companies suggest that the roof use asphalt shingles, the owner’s most concerned about the problem is how long is the service life of asphalt shingles?

The advantages of low price and easy construction of asphalt shingles are obvious, but if the service life of asphalt shingles is too short, late maintenance is very troublesome, but increases the difficulty of construction and construction cost.

In fact, asphalt shingles were originally designed for wooden houses. Because the life of the wooden house itself is short, and the bearing capacity is weak, so a kind of thin shingle is needed, asphalt shingle emerged at the historic moment, instead of the original linoleum cloth, become the best choice for the wooden house roof.

Up to now, asphalt shingles have been available for more than 60 years, after more than 60 years of development, all aspects of asphalt shingles have been improved, the most obvious change is that asphalt shingles have national standards.

Asphalt shingles produced in strict accordance with national standards, the service life of single asphalt shingles can be guaranteed for 20 years, the service life of double asphalt shingles can be guaranteed for 30 years.

The service life is still not as good as that of traditional tiles, which are guaranteed to last 50 years. But at the current rate of urban development and building life in China, 30 years of asphalt shingles is enough to fit most buildings. So in the last 10 years, the use of asphalt shingles has been very wide, all the roofing slope, there are cases of the use of asphalt shingles.
