When it’s time for your next roof replacement, choosing materials from a trusted manufacturer will give you peace of mind that your home is well protected, even during storms. Owens Corning, a leading manufacturer of asphalt roof shingles, offers a variety of attractive styles and hues so you can enjoy the optimal function and aesthetics for your home. Let’s dive into the advantages of Owens Corning roofing.
Why Choose Owens Corning Materials for Your Roofing?
1. Industry-Leading Roofing for Decades
When you select a recognized leader in the industry, like Owens Corning, for your roofing materials, you can have confidence that you’re making a wise investment. They use the latest technology in their roofing products, and have a track record of success as one of the most trusted brands globally.
2. Class-4 Impact Resistance
The severe storms and hail we sometimes experience in Wichita are no match for Owens Corning’s Duration STORM® and Duration FLEX® shingles. Imagine the confidence you’ll have when the forecast includes harsh weather in our area if your home is fortified with the strength and durability these shingles deliver.
- Duration FLEX shingles are more pliable than other shingles, and their flexibility helps them resist cracking and tearing in all weather conditions.
- Duration STORM shingles offer the highest rating for impact resistance. The reinforced backing on these shingles helps them withstand hail’s impact.
3. Exceptional Energy Efficiency
Decrease your utility bills and preserve your heating and air conditioning unit with ENERGY STAR®-rated Owens Corning asphalt shingles. These outstanding shingles reflect the sun’s harsh UV rays, lowering the amount of heat transferred into your home.
4. Trusted High-Wind Resistance
When spring storms make their way through Wichita, you can relax knowing your home is well protected by the high wind resistance Owens Corning shingles deliver. With their standard products’ wind rating of up to 130 mph, you can have peace of mind.
5. Dependable Longevity
When you choose Owens Corning’s reliable roofing system, it may just be the last time you need to replace your roof. Why? With an average lifespan of 30 years, their popular architectural roofing shingles deliver unparalleled longevity you can count on. When installed by an experienced contractor (like us!) and well maintained over the years, these roofing components go the distance!
6. Excellent Water Resistance
Water—your exterior’s enemy—can pose a threat to your home’s roofing unless it is covered in water-resistant Owens Corning asphalt shingles. Their makeup includes a fiberglass mat at their core, and a proprietary, heat-activated sealant—creating a water-tight barrier to safeguard your home from damaging water intrusion.
7. Sustainable Roofing Components
The eco-friendly manufacturing practices of Owens Corning deliver sustainability. They divert two million tons of asphalt shingles from landfills through a shingle recycling program. And recycled asphalt shingles become either new shingles or asphalt paving.
8. Exceptional Quality
This outstanding company’s patented process involved in manufacturing each shingle delivers optimal protection from Wichita weather. The Class A fire rating Owens Corning shingles offer gives you peace of mind in the unlikely event of a fire.
9. Customizable Design Choices
When you choose Owens Corning asphalt shingles, you get a wide range of design options. Their popular Duration® series shingles come in up to 21 colors regionally. They include a line of Duration Designer Shingles, which come with exceptional wind resistance and rich color options so you don’t have to exchange beauty for durability.
- TruDefinition® Duration Designer line offers a lush pallet of bold colors. Their high contrast hues deliver a stunning look fit for even the most distinctive taste.
- Duration MAX® and Duration® Premium shingles offer thickness and weight that give them a stunning wood-like appearance on a roof.
10. Attractive Color Options
With a wide variety of options to choose from, Owens Corning offers something for every taste. Get the custom look you desire with the gorgeous hues they offer.
11. Reliable Algae-Resistance
Wichita’s humid weather can contribute to algae growth on asphalt roof shingles, giving a less than appealing look to your home, and weakening the shingles simultaneously. The good news is that Owens Corning roof shingles resist algae growth with an effective barrier against this unattractive growth, so you shouldn’t have to deal with it in the first place.
12. Expert Installation
The beauty of hiring an Owens Corning’s Preferred Contractor (like us!) is that you know you are getting the premium installation you deserve. You can expect the products to perform as they were designed to—and last! When a contractor is vetted by a manufacturer, you know both parties care about you—their customer. You’ll get premium customer service and both a contractor and manufacturer who stand behind their work.
13. Exceptional Warranty Coverage
When products are engineered as well as Owens Corning’s, the manufacturer stands behind them with an excellent warranty, giving you peace of mind in your investment. This is just one way they demonstrate their commitment to your total satisfaction.
