Owen's Corning Asphalt Shingles

Your roof plays a key part in your everyday life. The materials that cover your house work to keep out weather elements like heat, rain, ice, and cold winds. A poorly built roof will wear down over time and can subject your home to moisture infiltration and structural damage.  

Start With a Waterproofing Barrier

Moisture is the enemy of any home. From roof leaks that warp the framing and floors to mold that targets the health of families, water can devalue your home and create expensive and long-going repair projects. Our Integrity Roof System creates redundant layers that help keep moisture far from the inside of your home. 

CertainTeed Integrity Roof System starts with a WinterGuard® waterproofing underlayment. This self-adhering material blocks water from touching your roof and prevents leaks into your house. 

Add Extra Water Resistance

In order to keep out any water or unintended moisture, the Integrity Roof System uses a second water-resistant underlayment. CertainTeed DiamondDeck® or RoofRunner™ underlayments serve as secondary barriers to keep moisture out. In the event that this layer is damaged, your roof still has the WinterGuard underlayment to keep your home dry.

Starter Shingles Cover Vulnerable Areas

The Integrity Roof System uses specialty starter shingles that are installed along the perimeter of a roof. Since the eaves of a roof face powerful wind gusts, starter shingles are specifically engineered to endure shingle uplift and blow off.

Asphalt Shingles for the First Layer of Protection 

Next comes the asphalt shingles. These shingles are a roof’s primary defense against the  elements, and make up the bulk of a roof system. CertainTeed offers shingles that replicate the look of slate or wood shake roofing – with products that vary by texture, color, and appearance. 

Ridge Vents 

Sloped roofs present a series of peaks – known as ridges – that are the high point of a home’s structure. Ridge vents are installed over a ridge, and work in balance with intake vents or soffit vents to help your roof ‘breathe.’ This is a critically important function necessary for optimal performance and protection of a roof system. Balanced ventilation (in conjunction with proper attic insulation) helps keep an attic space dry and free from mold, and can also help you save on heating and cooling costs by venting trapped hot or cold air from the attic space.

Accessory Shingles

Accessory shingles serve as protective caps at the ridges and hips of a roof, and provide a professional, finished look. CertainTeed accessory shingles match the style and colors of our asphalt shingles, allowing them to blend seamlessly with the rest of the roof.
