One family on Padre Island needed a new roof system but wanted something better than the standard laminate shingle.
The homeowners liked the tile roof of their next-door neighbor, and knew they didn’t want to go through the expense of reframing the structure to support the additional weight of the tile roofing system. After consulting with State Roofing Company and GAF’s website the homeowners opted to go with the GAF Monaco Designer Lifetime Shingles.
The shingles they selected are similar in material to composition shingles, but look like 
genuine European clay tile roofs. The GAF Monaco Designer Lifetime Shingles were installed by State Roofing Company’s trained professionals which allowed them to be covered by GAF’s System-Plus Warranty – the best warranty in the business.
You can see in the pictures that the roof has the appearance of barrel tile.
