Choosing the Right Roofing Shingle
The best roofing shingles for your home will meet your budget, provide the durability your roof needs, and create the curb appeal you want.
.
Meeting Your Budget
Your roof may be one of the largest investments you make in your home, and with so many types and styles, you can find shingles that fit a range of budgets.
Rugged Enough to Protect Your Home
Your choice in shingles should be designed to help protect your home from the elements.
High Winds …. Shingles with strong adhesive ratings and those that offer a Wind warranty are preferred.
Hail …. Impact-resistant shingles may be a good option if your area is impacted by significant hailstorms.
Sun Exposure … Highly reflective ENERGY STAR®-certified shingles can help reduce temperatures in your attic and keep your house cooler.
Moisture …. Stain resistance shingles work well in regions experiencing high moisture and blue-green algae discoloration.
What’s Your Style?
Asphalt shingles are available in multiple styles for contemporary to historical home designs. These include 3-tab, architectural, and designer shingles. While these types mostly differ in look, some may offer better durability as well.
Architectural
Architectural shingles, also known as “dimensional” or “laminate” shingles, offer a richer, multidimensional quality that looks a bit like wood or slate roofing.
Designer
A designer shingle, often called a “premium” or “luxury” shingle, offers higher-end multidimensional designs, premium protection from weathering, and maximum energy efficiency. Designer shingles take on the most realistic look of old-world roofing materials.
3-Tab
A 3-tab shingle is the simplest type of roofing shingle. They are built from a single layer of asphalt, which makes them lie flat right against the roof.
What’s Your Color?
Shingles come in a wide range of colors. Consider a color that complements your house or neighborhood. Neutrals are always safe — and enduring — if you don’t have a preference.
If now is the time to replace your existing roof with new shingles, Henry Pool Lumber can help you make the right choice in architectural styles, colors and materials.
Henry Poor Lumber offers North America’s #1 Selling Shingle GAF’s Timberline® Lifetime Architectural Roofing Shingles. These shingles are extraordinary durable, fire resistant and come with limited lifetime warranties.
Available colors: In Stock: Hickory, Barkwood, Weathered Wood, Mission Brown, Pewter Gray, Charcoal. Available but not in stock: Shakewood and Slate
GAF Timberline Roofing Shingles

GAF has created an app that will help you select the right shingle, color and style for your home. It will also calculate what materials you will need allowing Henry Poor to more quickly and accurately fill your order.

All The Extras You’ll Need
Henry Poor carries all the materials you’ll need to complete your roofing project.
If you choose to go up on the roof yourself, remember to always utilize proper safety equipment to prevent falls or injury.
Henry Poor Lumber offers ROOF TOP DELIVERY using one of their fully equipped high reach boom trucks. They are available to put your materials exactly where you need them at your home or job site.

Childhood Cancer Awareness
Little Nora Jean’s Fighting Machine
The latest edition to the Henry Poor Lumber delivery fleet, “Nora Jean’s Fighting Machine.”
With the recent addition to Henry Poor Lumber’s delivery fleet of a new Freightliner flatbed moffett truck, we wanted to honor a very special person who has shown us all what toughness and resilience look like.
So we christened our new delivery truck “Nora Jean’s Fighting Machine”.
An Extraordinarily Difficult Time
Jim Andrew’s granddaughter, Nora Jean Dane, was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of brain cancer at the age of 3. Her treatment required extensive brain surgery, chemotherapy and proton radiation treatments that lasted over a year. From a future that promised little hope to being declared cancer free in 2019, little Nora Jean demonstrated the resilience and heart that got her, and her family, through an extraordinarily difficult time.
Raising Awareness of Childhood Cancer
Little Nora Jean test driving part of the new delivery truck named in her honor.
Did you know that each year, the parents of approximately 15,700 children in the United States will hear the words “your child has cancer”. This diagnosis can devastate a family.
Because of the personal experience the Henry Poor Lumber and Flooring Express family has been through with Nora Jean, they are committed to raising the awareness of the impact of childhood cancer on the lives of many young people and their families.
Childhood Cancer Facts
In honor of little Nora Jean, Henry Poor Lumber will donate 20 cents for every mile the Nora Jean Fighting Machine logs in 2020 to the Morgan Adams Foundation.
The Morgan Adams Foundation funds kids’ cancer research. They raise awareness of, and educate our communities about the need for pediatric and young adult specific cancer treatments.
Working with leading researchers and physicians, the Morgan Adams Foundation funds new and innovative ideas that will improve cancer treatment effectiveness, overall outcomes, survival rates and quality of life while minimizing the devastating side effects current treatments have on children.
To learn more about and how to support this organization go to the Morgan Adams Foundation.
