The Competition Doesn't Cut It Why the competition doesn't cut it

WHY THE COMPETITION DOESN'T CUT IT.

Let’s say you have to cut a panel to fit a 12/12 pitch. Or you have to shave some off the top or bottom of a panel. If the shingles aren’t fully bonded to the backing, pieces will fall off. That requires additional time and materials to fix.

Plus, with 150 staples per panel and an abrasive fiberglass interlayer, the imitation panels can be a saw blade’s worst nightmare.
