FAQs
What does it mean to be an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor?
An Owens Corning Preferred Contractor is a roofing company that has met Owens Corning’s strict requirements for professionalism, reliability, and craftsmanship. To earn this status we must: (1) hold at least $1M in general liability insurance, (2) be in good standing with the Better Business Bureau, (3) pass annual installation workmanship inspections, and (4) complete regular manufacturer training. For homeowners in Huntsville, this translates into consistent quality, adherence to local codes, and the ability to offer Owens Corning’s higher-tier material and workmanship warranties.
What roofing products do you install, and are they suited to North Alabama’s weather?
We primarily install Owens Corning Duration®, Duration FLEX®, and Designer Series asphalt shingles. These products feature SureNail® Technology for 130-mph wind resistance, Class A fire ratings, and options for impact resistance—important for the hailstorms Huntsville occasionally sees. The shingles’ algae-resistant copper granules also help prevent streaking in the area’s humid climate, keeping your roof looking new for years.
What warranty coverage will I receive with an Owens Corning roof replacement?
Because we are a Preferred Contractor, we can register your roof for the Owens Corning Preferred Protection Roofing System Limited Warranty at no additional charge. This gives you: (1) 50 years of non-prorated coverage on material defects, (2) 10 years of workmanship coverage backed by Owens Corning (not just our company), and (3) one-time transferable ownership—adding resale value if you sell your Huntsville home. Optional upgrades, such as the Platinum Protection warranty, are also available for extended workmanship terms.
How long does a roof replacement take and what is the process?
Most asphalt shingle roof replacements in Huntsville are completed in 1–2 days, weather permitting. The process includes: (1) free on-site inspection and detailed written estimate, (2) material/color selection and permit filing, (3) delivery of shingles and protective components, (4) tear-off of old roofing down to the decking, (5) deck repairs (if needed), (6) installation of ice & water barrier, underlayment, ventilation, and new Owens Corning shingles, and (7) magnetic cleanup and final walkthrough. We schedule around North Alabama’s frequent summer storms to minimize delays.
How much will my roof replacement cost, and do you assist with financing or insurance claims?
Costs depend on roof size, pitch, decking condition, and shingle line chosen. In Huntsville, full replacements with Owens Corning Duration shingles typically range from $4.25 to $6.50 per square foot installed. We offer 0% and low-interest financing options with terms up to 144 months, plus same-as-cash promotional periods. If your roof has storm damage, our team can meet with the insurance adjuster, provide photographic evidence, and help ensure you receive fair coverage under your policy.
Can a new Owens Corning roof improve my home’s energy efficiency and resale value?
Yes. Cool Roof Collection shingles feature solar-reflective granules that can help reduce attic temperatures and lower HVAC load during Huntsville’s hot summers. Proper ventilation components—ridge vents, intake vents, and baffles—are included in every system we install, preventing heat buildup and moisture problems that raise energy bills. Additionally, a transferrable 50-year warranty and the Owens Corning brand name are strong selling points; national studies show homeowners recoup 60–70% of roof replacement costs at resale, often boosting curb appeal and closing speed.
