Shingles can either be classified as organic or bre glass depending on the base. In both instances however, they are saturated in asphalt to make them water proof. Both Organic and bre glass shingles come in either single or double layers.

The double layer covers a wider area compared to the single layer. Fibreglass shingles are heat resistant and ame retardant and as such more suitable for hot climates.
