Royal Sovereign^® 3-Tab Shingles

Royal Sovereign^® Shingles combine a simple, timeless beauty with GAF’s Advanced Protection^® Technology...

Some people think all strip shingles look pretty much alike. Not so! At GAF, we’ve gone to great pains to make Royal Sovereign^® the most beautiful strip shingle you can install.

But don’t just take our word for it. GAF asked an independent research firm to survey homeowners about whose 3-tab shingles they preferred. The result: More homeowners preferred the look of Royal Sovereign^® Shingles to the other leading brands! And the #1 reason cited by home owners? Royal Sovereign’s color blends.

Here’s just a sampling of what these real homeowners said about Royal Sovereign^® Shingles:

“It has more vivid color, it is a more vibrant color... not faded.”

“...looks clean, looks classier.”

“Looks more natural [than the others] because of the colors.” 

“...stands out better than the other ones, I like the color, it is brighter.”

“It looks rich and very durable.”
