Services
We install shingle systems from the industry’s most trusted manufacturers, including GAF and Owens Corning. Every home is different, so we offer multiple shingle types to match your priorities whether that’s maximizing curb appeal, hitting a specific budget, or getting the longest possible warranty.
Architectural shingles — also called dimensional or laminated shingles — are the most popular choice for residential roofing in the Fort Wayne area, and they’re what we recommend for most homeowners. These shingles are made with two or more layers of asphalt bonded together, creating a thicker, more durable product with a rich, dimensional appearance that mimics the look of natural wood shake or slate.
Compared to basic 3-tab shingles, architectural shingles offer significantly better wind resistance (rated up to 130 mph), longer lifespans (typically 25 to 30 years, with some premium lines warranted up to 50 years), and dramatically improved curb appeal. They’re available in a wide range of colors, blends, and shadow lines that add depth and character to any home’s exterior. Popular choices in our area include GAF Timberline HDZ, Owens Corning Duration, and CertainTeed Landmark.
3-tab shingles are the traditional, time-tested option in asphalt roofing. Named for the three uniform tabs cut into each strip, these shingles create a flat, clean appearance that works well on a variety of home styles. While they don’t offer the dimensional look or extended warranties of architectural shingles, 3-tab shingles provide solid weather protection at the lowest upfront cost.
3-tab shingles are a good fit for homeowners working within a tighter budget, rental properties, detached structures like garages and sheds, or situations where you need a reliable roof without the premium price tag. They typically carry manufacturer warranties of 20 to 25 years and perform well when properly installed with quality underlayment and adequate ventilation.
For homeowners who want the absolute best in shingle roofing, premium and designer shingle lines offer the highest level of performance and aesthetics available. These heavyweight shingles — like GAF Grand Sequoia, Owens Corning Berkshire, and CertainTeed Grand Manor — feature ultra-thick profiles, enhanced shadow lines, and artisan-grade color blends that rival the look of natural slate, cedar shake, or Old World tile.
Premium shingles also deliver top-tier durability, with algae resistance, Class 4 impact ratings (on select models), and limited lifetime warranties that can transfer to a new owner if you sell your home. They’re an investment in both protection and resale value — and they make a statement from the street.
Northeast Indiana is no stranger to hail storms, and impact-resistant shingles are engineered specifically to handle that threat. These shingles carry a Class 4 impact rating — the highest available — meaning they’ve been tested to withstand the impact of a two-inch steel ball dropped from 20 feet without cracking or breaking.
Beyond the obvious protection benefit, many Indiana homeowners insurance providers offer significant premium discounts (often 10-28%) for homes with Class 4 impact-resistant roofing. Over the life of the roof, those insurance savings can offset a substantial portion of the additional material cost. We’ll help you understand your options and calculate the potential savings during your free consultation.
Not sure whether your roof needs a repair or a full replacement? Here are the most common indicators that a new shingle roof installation is the right call:
Most asphalt shingle roofs are designed to last 15 to 25 years (or up to 30 for architectural shingles). If your roof is approaching or past that mark, the underlayment, flashing, and shingles are all nearing the end of their useful life — even if the surface still looks passable from the ground.
A few missing or damaged shingles can be repaired, but when you’re seeing cracking, curling, cupping, or granule loss across large sections of the roof, patching individual spots is no longer cost-effective.
If you’ve had your roofer out multiple times in recent years to fix leaks or replace sections, those repair costs add up fast. At a certain point, investing in a new roof is the smarter financial decision.
A sagging roofline can indicate deteriorated decking or structural damage beneath the shingles. This needs immediate professional evaluation.
If light is getting through your roof boards, water is too.
An aging roof with failing ventilation and degraded materials loses its insulating effectiveness, forcing your HVAC system to work harder.
If you’re seeing any of these signs, contact EG Roofing for a free roof inspection. We’ll give you an honest assessment of whether a repair or a full replacement is the right move.

Process
We believe roof repair should be straightforward, transparent, and stress-free. Here’s how we work:
01
We start with a thorough inspection of your existing roof. You receive a detailed, written estimate covering tear-off, materials, labor, and any structural work needed. No hidden fees, no obligation.
02
We’ll help you choose the right shingle type, manufacturer, and color. We bring physical samples and can show you completed roofs in your area.
03
Every EG Roofing installation begins with a complete tear-off down to the deck. This allows us to inspect for rot, water damage, or structural issues.
04
Damaged decking is replaced. We install ice and water shield in critical areas, followed by synthetic underlayment, drip edge, and starter strips.
05
Our crew installs every shingle to manufacturer specs and local codes, with a site supervisor on-site throughout. Meticulous attention to nail placement, flashing details, and ridge ventilation.
06
Detailed final inspection, full debris cleanup including magnetic sweep, and warranty documentation for materials and labor.

FAQ
The cost of a new shingle roof depends on the size of your home, the type of shingles you choose, the complexity of your roof’s design, and whether old materials need to be removed. Architectural shingles typically cost more than 3-tab shingles but offer better durability and a longer lifespan. We provide free, itemized estimates so you know exactly what you’re paying for — no hidden fees or surprises.
Most residential shingle roof installations are completed within two to four days, depending on the size and complexity of the roof. Factors like weather delays, roof accessibility, and whether structural repairs are needed can affect the timeline. We’ll give you a clear schedule during your estimate so you can plan accordingly.
The lifespan of a shingle roof depends on the type of shingle installed. Standard 3-tab shingles typically last 15 to 20 years, while architectural shingles can last 25 to 30 years or more with proper maintenance. Premium and impact-resistant shingles may last even longer. Factors like ventilation, attic insulation, and Indiana’s weather patterns also affect longevity.
While layering new shingles over old ones is technically possible in some cases, EG Roofing always recommends a full tear-off. Layovers can hide underlying damage, add excessive weight to your roof structure, and void manufacturer warranties. A complete tear-off allows us to inspect the decking, replace damaged wood, and install your new roof on a clean, solid foundation — which is the only way to ensure maximum performance and lifespan.
We work with all major shingle manufacturers including GAF, Owens Corning, and CertainTeed. The best brand and product line for your home depends on your budget, aesthetic preferences, and performance requirements. During your free consultation, we’ll walk you through the options and help you choose the shingle that offers the best value for your specific situation.
If your existing roof was damaged by a covered event such as a storm, hail, or falling debris, your homeowner’s insurance may cover some or all of the replacement cost. We can help you document the damage for your insurance claim and work with your adjuster to make the process as smooth as possible. We’ll give you an honest assessment of whether your situation qualifies for an insurance claim.
Whether you’re replacing a worn-out roof or upgrading to a more durable shingle system, EG Roofing delivers expert installation backed by manufacturer warranties and our own 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. Every project starts with a free inspection and detailed estimate — no pressure, no obligation.
