Due to variations in computer monitors and settings, it is impossible to portray these products exactly as they
might appear on your roof. Before selecting your shingle and color, please ask your Contractor to see several full-size
shingles, or for the location of homes in your area which have the style/color of shingle that you are interested in.


for HOMEOWNERS

  • Sophisticated Design... Carefully sculpted shingle tabs combined with a subtle
    “shadow effect” result in a sophisticated, yet rugged design
  • Incredible Appearance... Grand Canyon’s massive, extra-thick shingle tabs are
    20% thicker, and give your roof the unmatched dimensionality and depth of real
    wood shakes
  • Super-Heavyweight "PLUS" Design... At over 450 lbs. per square, compare
    Grand Canyon™ shingles to any of the so-called “heavyweight” shingles on the market!

    Grand Canyon’s natural wood shake look
  • High Performance... Custom-specified, ultra-high performance Micro Weave® core provides better protection layer-for-layer
  • Safer... Class A fire rating from Underwriters Laboratories—the highest rating possible—and safer than wood shakes!
  • Stays In Place... Dura Grip® adhesive seals each shingle tightly and reduces risk of shingle blow-off. Shingles now warranted to withstand winds up to 110 mph (requires special installation)!†
  • The Ultimate Peace Of Mind... Lifetime Ltd. Warranty with Smart Choice® Protection for the first ten years (non-prorated material and installation labor)*
  • Available Colors ... Black Oak, Mission Brown, Moss Green, Sedona Sunset, Stone Wood, and Storm Cloud Gray
