A Guide to Owens Corning Roofing Products

As a member of the Owens Corning Preferred Contractor Program, Hatch Homes takes pride in installing all of the exceptional roofing materials made by this brand. If you’re a Carolina homeowner wondering why you should consider choosing Owens Corning products over all of the other options on the home improvement market today, you have come to the right place! As you read this guide, you’ll discover exactly what sets Owens Corning apart and why the brand should be your frontrunner. 

To offer complete transparency, however, you will find lists of both pros and cons in this guide. Our goal is to help you make an educated, and informed choice before your residential roof replacement project gets underway. 

Pros:

The “Total Protection” promise

It is important to understand that a roof is more than shingles. Owens Corning offers a “Total Protection” promise. This means that all components of your Owens Corning-branded roof — including flashing, underlayment, and other materials — are designed to work together seamlessly. This may not happen if you piecemeal various brands during a single roofing project.

Owens Corning’s official tagline for the “Total Protection” package is “Seal, Defend, Breathe.”

Owens Corning offers certified contractors

The Owens Corning Preferred Contractor Program — which we’ve mentioned we are so proud to be part of — allows clients to have peace-of-mind when they need a new roof. The Owens Corning certification process is comprehensive, ensuring that Preferred Contractors are up-to-date on the latest installation techniques and trends in the roofing industry. 

Furthermore, contractors and their teams have regular access to continuing education classes to stay abreast of up-to-the-minute roofing news. 

Exceptional warranties

Owens Corning is known for excellent customer service on all of their products — they offer a wide range of specialty shingles and standard shingles that all include their manufacturer’s guarantee. If you purchase Owens Corning materials, you will be covered!

Cons: 

There are few cons to selecting the Owens Corning brand name for your Carolina roofing job. The primary potential issues are not specifically related to the company. 

For example, asphalt shingles are not a particularly environmentally friendly product — this is not something unique to Owens Corning. If, however, being environmentally conscious is of crucial importance to you, asphalt shingles might not be the right roofing material in the first place. 

Another issue some homeowners run into with asphalt shingles is manufacturer’s warranties not being honored. Again, this doesn’t tend to happen with Owens Corning, as they have an excellent customer service history. 

Remember, if you have any questions about particular Owens Corning roofing products — which are all outlined on the brand’s official website — you can contact their customer relations team via phone or email. Their employees are more than happy to assist buyers who are interested in discovering all that the brand has to offer for home renovation projects.
