      Some people think all 3-tab shingles look pretty much alike. Not so! At GAF, we’ve gone to great pains to make Royal Sovereign® Shingles the most beautiful strip shingles you can buy. 

      But don’t just take our word for it. Over 10 million Royal Sovereign® Shingles have been installed in North America—enough to circle the Earth more than 200 times if they were laid end to end!

      "I have a moderate sized house on a very wooded lot in very humid climate. I had a new roof installed with GAF Sovereign 3-tab shingles in 2004. They lasted beautifully, withstanding continuous impacts from falling branches and acorns. Algae growth and staining didn't begin to occur until around the 13th year and when cleaned, it remained clear for at least a year. Amazing given the environment the shingles were in. During the entire life of the shingles, there was no leaking. Due to these factors, I put the same shingles on in 2020 when I got the new roof."
