About the color: Onyx Black
The homeowner picked Onyx Black from the OC Duration line. The swatch above is the manufacturer’s image of that blend. On a real roof it will read a little different depending on pitch, which way each slope faces and how much sun it gets. If you like it, ask us to bring a full-size piece out and hold it up against your own house.
Materials installed, layer by layer
The feature that defines Owens Corning Duration is SureNail Technology, a tough woven fabric band in the nailing zone that the fasteners go through for better hold. People shop for the shingle, but what’s underneath it and how the edges are finished decide how long the roof lasts. On this job:
- Two layers of synthetic underlayment. That’s double our standard spec. The second layer adds another barrier under the shingles.
- Self-sealing ice and water membrane where water concentrates. It seals around every nail driven through it, which matters in valleys and at the eaves.
- Factory starter at the eaves and rakes. It’s a purpose-made starter strip with factory adhesive, not cut-up field shingles, so the edges stay sealed.
- Owens Corning Hip & Ridge on the hips and peak. Matching cap shingles made for the job, not field shingles cut into pieces.
- Lomanco Omni Roll ridge vent. It runs along the peak and lets hot, damp attic air escape. That protects the decking and keeps shingles from baking from below.
