Roof problems. Off your plate.
A new roof is one of the biggest purchases you'll make for your home. You should understand what you're buying, what it costs, and who will be there if something goes wrong.
A roof is a system.
Each part has a job. Here is what we install and why.
Select your shingle
Owens Corning Supreme
A traditional three-tab shingle, for when a simple, economical roof is the right fit.
Owens Corning Duration
An architectural shingle with deep color and dimension. Rated Class 3 for impact resistance, with a reinforced nailing strip that helps it hold in high wind.
Owens Corning Duration Storm
The impact-resistant upgrade. Rated UL 2218 Class 4, one of the industry's highest impact ratings. Some insurers offer a premium discount for Class 4 roofs; check with your insurance company.
Everything else in the system
Hip and ridge
Manufactured hip and ridge cap on every roof.* Purpose-made Owens Corning ridge shingles finish the peaks: DecoRidge or ProEdge, and ImpactRidge on Duration Storm roofs, where it's required to complete the Class 4 system.
Valley protection
Owens Corning WeatherLock leak barrier goes under the shingles in the valleys, where the most water runs, and on low-slope areas. It's more than insurance estimates typically pay for. We use it because it's best practice.
Underlayment
Pro Guard 20 synthetic underlayment instead of traditional felt. It lies flat, doesn't absorb water and is far stronger than felt.
Starter strip
Owens Corning Starter Strip Plus on every roof.
Flashing
Metal that seals the joints: chimneys, walls and edges. Most leaks start at a joint.
Ventilation
Lets heat and moisture out of the attic, which is good for the roof and the house.
Decking
The wood under everything. It can only be fully checked once the old roof is off.

* Except three-tab roofs.
What it costs, and when to pay
One price: the cash price we'd give a homeowner paying out of pocket. It doesn't go up because insurance is paying.
No money down until installation day. No credit card fees. Financing available.

Stand behind it
Two warranties cover your roof, one from us and one from the manufacturer; the terms are on the warranty page.
Everyone from the laborers to office staff were excellent to work with.

Metal, tile and other roof systems
Interested in a roof system other than shingles? Give us a call. While these roofs are excellent options, they represent a more substantial investment and deserve a closer look. Call us at 888-312-CAKE (2253) and let's discuss your project.
What can go wrong during the job?
No surprises. If we find something once the old roof is off, such as damaged decking, you'll see photos and the unit price we gave you before the job started. Nothing is added without your OK.
