FAQs
What sets Owens Corning shingles apart from other roofing materials?
Owens Corning shingles combine advanced fiberglass mat technology, durable asphalt compounds, and patented SureNail® strip reinforcement. This trio delivers exceptional wind resistance (up to 130 mph on many lines), superior granule adhesion for longer color life, and proven impact performance. In addition, Owens Corning is one of the only roofing manufacturers that also produces its own insulation, allowing its roofing systems to be engineered for complete home energy performance.
Are Owens Corning shingles a good choice for Jasper’s weather conditions?
Yes. Jasper’s hot summers, seasonal storms, and occasional hail make impact resistance and heat management critical. Owens Corning shingles are UL 2218 Class 4–rated on their TruDefinition® Duration FLEX® and Duration STORM® lines, offering some of the industry’s best hail protection. Their reflective granules and patented “cool roof” color options help reduce attic temperatures during high-heat days, and the SureNail® strip ensures shingles stay put during spring and fall wind events common in the Jasper area.
What warranty coverage can I expect with an Owens Corning roof?
Owens Corning provides a Limited Lifetime Warranty (for as long as you own your home) on most architectural shingles, which covers manufacturing defects. When your roof is installed by an Owens Corning Preferred or Platinum Preferred Contractor, you can upgrade to the System Protection, Preferred Protection, or Platinum Protection warranty. These enhanced warranties extend non-prorated material, labor, tear-off, and disposal coverage for up to 50 years and include workmanship protection of up to 25 years with Platinum Protection.
How energy-efficient are Owens Corning roofing systems?
Owens Corning offers ENERGY STAR®–rated COOL Roof Collection shingles that reflect a higher percentage of the sun’s rays to help lower attic temperatures by as much as 10–15 °F. Pairing these shingles with Owens Corning ProArmor® synthetic underlayment and VentSure® ventilation accessories can reduce HVAC workload, potentially cutting summer cooling costs by 5–15 % compared with conventional dark roofs.
What is the difference between Duration® and Oakridge® shingles?
Oakridge® shingles are dual-layer architectural shingles that provide an attractive wood-shake look at a budget-friendly price. Duration® shingles add the SureNail® strip, delivering enhanced wind uplift protection (130 mph versus 110 mph), a bolder dimensional profile, and TruDefinition® color blending for deeper, richer hues. Homeowners who prioritize maximum durability and curb appeal often choose Duration®, while those seeking solid performance at a modest cost choose Oakridge®.
How long does a typical Owens Corning roof installation take in Jasper, and what should I expect?
Most single-family homes in Jasper can be re-roofed with Owens Corning shingles in 1–2 days, depending on roof complexity and weather conditions. The installation process includes (1) a thorough inspection and removal of existing roofing, (2) deck repair if needed, (3) installation of protective underlayment and ice-and-water barrier around vulnerable areas, (4) placement of starter shingles and field shingles using six-nail fastening for maximum wind rating, (5) ridge vent and hip/ridge shingle installation for ventilation, and (6) site cleanup with magnetic nail sweep. Your contractor will perform a final walk-through and provide warranty registration paperwork before leaving the jobsite.
