CertainTeed Carriage House Shingles

CertainTeed Carriage House shingles are premium designer architectural shingles that replicate the authentic appearance of hand-split wood shakes. They feature a unique multi-layered design with oversized tabs and deep shadow lines that create exceptional depth and dimension. These luxury shingles combine old-world charm with modern engineering to deliver both stunning aesthetics and superior performance.

Carriage House shingles are significantly heavier and more dimensional than standard architectural shingles. They feature oversized tabs (up to 10 inches wide) and multiple layers that create dramatic shadow lines and authentic wood shake appearance. At approximately 380-430 lbs per square, they offer superior wind resistance, impact protection, and longevity compared to standard 3-tab or basic architectural shingles.

CertainTeed Carriage House shingles are engineered to last 40-50+ years with proper installation and maintenance. They come with CertainTeed's limited lifetime warranty that includes 15-year SureStart PLUS protection, covering both materials and labor for manufacturing defects. Their heavyweight construction and advanced weathering resistance ensure decades of reliable performance.
