Shingle ID - Looks like OC Berkshire

This homeowner bought a house that has a sweet looking shingle, but the usual GARBAGE install.

It's definitely a green color, but you can't tell real well from the pics. OC Berkshire doesn't have a green and I can't find any other profiles that match.

I agree with you there Chuck. Luckily, I was able to pull apart a couple of these. They are a cheaper version of a high-dollar shingle, that's easy to tell.

There was one area that I could see the top of the starters in the lap, plus a nail head. I don't say this often but......LOL

I don't know exactly what it is but I don't care much for that type of shingle. Especially not on anything under a 6/12. From the opening of the slots/keyways to the nail heads and butt joints of the shingle below is only 3 inches and less compared to 6 with a regular 3-tab. I have to give some credit to the manufacturer concerning the sealing of those shingles however but on the flip side they can be a nightmare to try and perform repairs on because they often refuse to to come apart/unsealed.
