Proper planning and knowing what you want can head off a lot of potential problems and delays - whether you need a new roof or just some repairs. Let's look at common considerations in new roof projects and significant roof repair.
Consider your performance needs
Durability, expected life span, and resistance to wind and algae growth are all important considerations in the selection of your new shingles. Your climate - annual rainfall, relative humidity, typical wind conditions and storms, etc. - impacts the importance of these features.
Each Owens Corning shingle series and collection states its rating for wind resistance and algae resistance. Owens Corning shingle warranties range from 20-, 25- and 30-year terms to limited lifetime terms.
