Built to Last. Made to Power.
Solar shingles are designed for long-term performance, both as roofing material and energy generators. The systems we install are built to withstand wind, rain, and time, while continuing to provide reliable energy for decades. With modern advancements in materials and design, today’s solar shingles are more efficient and more attractive than ever.
Unlike bulky panels, solar shingles won’t compromise your home’s curb appeal. Instead, they enhance it — all while quietly powering your daily life with sunshine.

What Are Solar Shingles?
Solar shingles, also known as photovoltaic (PV) roofing shingles, are roofing materials that function as both a protective layer and a solar energy system. They look like standard asphalt shingles but are equipped with solar technology that converts sunlight into electricity for your home. This integrated approach offers a cleaner look and greater protection than traditional rack-mounted solar panels.
At Spartan StormShield, we install GAF Timberline Solar™, one of the leading solar shingle systems available today. This award-winning product features a nailable design, which allows for faster, cleaner installation using standard roofing tools. It’s a breakthrough in roofing and solar technology, backed by a legacy roofing manufacturer with decades of experience.
Benefits of Solar Shingles
Switching to solar shingles offers a unique combination of beauty, performance, and long-term savings:
Seamless Design: Because the solar components are integrated into your roofing material, the result is a low-profile look that blends into your home’s architecture.
Energy Efficiency: Solar shingles capture the power of the sun to reduce your electricity bills and your reliance on the grid.
Durability: Designed to meet or exceed typical roofing standards, solar shingles are tough enough to handle harsh weather and high winds.
Long-Term Value: A solar roof can increase your home’s value, reduce your carbon footprint, and may qualify for local, state, and federal tax incentives.

Frequently Asked Questions About Solar Shingles
Why should I choose a solar shingle roof over traditional solar panels?
At Spartan StormShield, we specialize in roof-integrated solar because we believe solar should be part of your roof — not just something bolted onto it. Unlike bulky rack-mounted systems, solar shingles offer a streamlined, low-profile design that blends in seamlessly with your home’s architecture. With the system we install, GAF Timberline Solar®, there’s no need for exposed hardware or puncturing your existing roof structure. This means better waterproofing, easier installation, and a cleaner, more durable result — all while generating clean energy.
How much does a solar roof cost?
The cost of a solar shingle roof varies depending on your home’s specific conditions — roof size, pitch, sun exposure, and shading all play a role. That said, solar shingles are competitively priced, usually comparable to the combined cost of a new roof plus a traditional solar panel system. During your free consultation, our team will evaluate your home and provide a custom estimate tailored to your energy needs and budget.
What kind of maintenance does a solar shingle roof require?
One of the best things about solar shingles is their low-maintenance design. They’re built to withstand rain, snow, wind, and seasonal weather conditions. Most homeowners won’t need to do much more than occasionally rinse off any heavy debris. And with the GAF Energy monitoring portal, you can easily track your system’s performance and energy output in real time.
Are solar shingles as efficient as traditional panels?
While solar shingles are measured differently than traditional rack-mounted panels, they use the same high-efficiency mono PERC cell technology found in top-tier solar products. Because shingles are integrated directly into your roof, they can often cover more surface area on complex roof shapes, which may result in more overall energy generation for your home.
