Certainteed Building Materials is another very popular and durable roofing brand in Hawaii. Here at Tropical, we primarily use Certainteed's asphalt shingle roofing. Available in many different styles and numerous colors, Certainteed asphalt shingle is ideal for Hawaii roofing projects on a budget. Select shingle styles are readily available and on island.

It is important to consider the pitch of your roof before selecting an asphalt shingle roof. Asphalt shingles should never be applied to slopes below 2:12 or 2 ft vertical rise for every 12 ft of horizontal run. Water will not drain properly off of a roof with to low of slope, creating pooling water and eventually leading to leakage.
