The dimensional
shingle.
Heavyweight designer laminate with the deep shadow line of a shake roof, without the upkeep. The look of slate or cedar at a fraction of the weight on your frame.
What it is
A laminated shingle built to read like cedar shake.
Luxury shingles stack multiple laminate layers to throw a real shadow line across the roof. CertainTeed Presidential and the designer profiles carry the depth of a hand-split shake or a slate field, but install over the same deck as a standard architectural roof. We tear off, lay synthetic underlayment, ice-and-water every valley and eave, and set the field to exact manufacturer specification.

Material
The depth comes from real layers, not a printed pattern.
A luxury shingle is physically thicker than an architectural shingle. Stacked laminate layers cast a shadow that moves with the sun, which is what reads as cedar or slate from the street.
Method
Fastened to spec, copper at every penetration.
Every course is fastened to exact manufacturer specification, from the starter to the ridge. Chimneys and sidewalls get copper flashing, soldered where it counts, not caulk over a step joint.
Why it fits here
Slate weight without the slate framing.
A true slate or tile roof can need structural reinforcement. A luxury laminate gives you the look on the structure you already have, and a CertainTeed Shingle Master warranty behind it.
See the shadow line in person before you decide.
A project consultant brings real samples to your kitchen table and shows you the same product on a roof down the road. The inspection is free. The proposal is one page.
