Tempe Roofing Pros provides professional asphalt shingle roofing in Tempe, AZ for residential and commercial properties across the East Valley. Shingles in Tempe are killed by sunlight and heat, not by water. A roof here sees months of surface temperatures far above the air temperature, and the asphalt binder gives up its volatiles long before anything wears out from rain.
What that looks like from a ladder is granule loss in sheets rather than in patches, tabs that have gone brittle and snap instead of bending, thermal splitting straight down a slope, and cupped edges where the mat has shrunk. None of it is storm damage and all of it is predictable, so we date it against the install rather than against the last storm. Heat ageing looks like a manufacturing defect and it is not one.
The specification changes accordingly. We favour heavier laminated architectural shingles with high-temperature-rated synthetic underlayment, cap nails rather than staples, and a colour choice that is a thermal decision as much as an appearance one. A dark roof in this valley runs measurably hotter, and every degree of that comes out of the shingle's service life. Colour is the cheapest performance decision on the whole job.
Now the part where we argue against our own product. A great many Tempe ranch houses have sections at two in twelve or shallower, and shingles are not rated for that. Manufacturers draw the line at three in twelve with doubled underlayment, and below it a shingle field holds water at the laps and fails early no matter how well it is nailed. Manufacturers publish that limit and warranties enforce it.
If you have shingles on a shallow section now, someone installed them out of specification, and the right fix is usually not more shingles. A sprayed foam and coating field, or a self-adhered modified bitumen system, belongs on that plane, with shingles kept to the slopes that can actually shed. We quote it that way even though the shingle job is easier to sell. Losing a sale over a slope is better than warrantying one.
Where the pitch is genuinely steep enough, a shingle roof is a sound and economical choice here and we install plenty of them. The valleys, the wall flashings, and the transition into any low-slope section are where they succeed or fail, and that is where our labour goes. Those are the details a rushed crew skips, and they decide whether the roof reaches its rating.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — sprayed polyurethane foam at three-pound density, acrylic elastomeric coating meeting ASTM D6083, high-solids silicone topcoat, dry film thickness measured in mils, electronic capacitance moisture survey, dusk infrared thermography scan — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Tempe and nearby communities including Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Scottsdale.

Materials, equipment and how we do asphalt shingle roofing
The difference between asphalt shingle roofing that lasts and asphalt shingle roofing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with sprayed polyurethane foam at three-pound density, acrylic elastomeric coating meeting ASTM D6083, high-solids silicone topcoat, dry film thickness measured in mils, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Tempe job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the East Valley means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
