What does three-tab shingle install actually cost in Illinois?

$425 to $525 per square installed on a typical Madison County home. That’s $9,000 to $14,000 on a 22-square house, all-in. Three-tab is the entry-level option and trades 5 to 8 years of life and worse wind ratings for the lower cost. Trill installs three-tab on roughly 5% of jobs — usually on rental properties or homes slated for sale.

The savings versus architectural shingles is $1,500 to $3,000 on a typical home. Whether that’s a good trade depends on how long you’ll own the home. Owners under 5 years from selling: three-tab can make sense. Owners staying 10+ years: architectural pays back faster than the warranty would suggest because of fewer storm-replacement events.
