FAQs
What makes Owens Corning roofing shingles a good choice for Philadelphia homes?
Owens Corning shingles combine advanced fiberglass mat technology with asphalt and patented SureNail® strip reinforcement, giving them superior wind and impact resistance—crucial for Philadelphia’s mix of nor’easters, summer thunderstorms, and occasional hail. Their TruDefinition® color palette resists fading in mid-Atlantic UV exposure, and many lines carry the ENERGY STAR® rating, helping reduce attic temperatures and cooling bills during humid Philly summers.
How does the installation process work with your Owens Corning Preferred Contractor team?
After your free on-site assessment, our Owens Corning Preferred Contractor will create a detailed scope of work, verify local codes and historic-district requirements, pull permits within the City of Philadelphia or surrounding counties, and schedule delivery of materials. On installation day, we remove existing roofing/siding, inspect the deck or wall sheathing, install Owens Corning WeatherLock® ice & water barrier, ProArmor® synthetic underlayment, and then the shingle or siding system. A final blower and magnet sweep ensures your property is nail-free, and we submit photo documentation to Owens Corning for warranty validation.
Are Owens Corning roofing systems energy efficient enough to handle Philadelphia’s seasonal temperature swings?
Yes. Many Owens Corning shingles feature Solar Reflective Granules that bounce more of the sun’s rays, lowering roof surface temperature by up to 50°F. When paired with Owens Corning ventilation products—such as VentSure® ridge vents and blown-in AttiCat® insulation—you can see 10–15 % reductions in annual heating and cooling costs. Proper ventilation also prevents ice dams that can form during Philly’s freeze-thaw winter cycles.
What siding options from Owens Corning do you offer, and how do they perform against Philadelphia weather?
We install Owens Corning’s FOAMULAR® continuous insulation panels behind vinyl or fiber-cement cladding, creating an air-and-water barrier that exceeds Pennsylvania’s current energy code. The insulated siding system resists wind up to 190 mph, shrugs off salt spray from coastal storms, and carries a Class A fire rating—ideal for rowhomes that must meet strict fire separation requirements.
What kind of warranty coverage can I expect on Owens Corning roofing and siding products?
Because we’re an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, you receive the System Protection Limited Warranty at no extra cost—lifetime* coverage on shingles and up to 50 years of non-prorated material and labor protection. Upgrade options include the Platinum Protection Warranty, which extends workmanship coverage to 25 years and is transferable once for free if you sell your Philadelphia property within that period. Siding systems carry a limited lifetime warranty against cracking, fading, and wind damage.
How much will a new Owens Corning roof or siding project cost in Philadelphia, and do you offer financing?
Roofing projects typically range from $5 to $7 per square foot installed (about $12k–$18k for an average 2,400 sq ft rowhome roof), while insulated siding systems average $8 to $12 per square foot, depending on profile and trim package. We provide firm, written estimates after inspection and offer 12-month same-as-cash or low-APR financing through Synchrony Home Design—as well as guidance on PECO rebates for ENERGY STAR® roofing that can further offset costs.
