I wouldn't say concerned as they carry great line of products, but you can obviously see that the duration storm is a stronger Shingle with extra protection with then bottom enforcement. But if you're not in a high hail/storm area you should be good with any line of their products

We are glad it helped you out! Raton is not far from us and we get similar weather, so I think it's a good choice.

HAHA. At least he can read whereas you can't even write! Besides, he was reading the results of Owens Corning's own test from a publication.

@@dupsguyuh oh!!! The spelling police have arrived!! There is one in every chat forum...you get a cookie!!

No such thing as "too bold" :) The OC Terra Cotta color is a great choice!

@@SolVistaRoofing I was very happy with it. The roof was completed on Oct 23 OC has some gorgeous colors really it's take your pick. I say only two types of oc ......pretty and prettier lol 😆

If you don't mind, can you share the results of the warranty claim? We have found OC to stand by their product. We are certified for several other shingle companies as well for those customers of ours that prefer alternatives.

Thank you for your feedback! We hope our channel is helpful on roofing topics - let us know if there are any other topics you'd like to see.

Sounds like you got yourself a high-quality roof!

It helps to be a certified OC installer. But the OC warranty will still be valid even without a certified installer as long as you install exactly how OC instructions show and use all OC components (like you are). They should have installation instructions on their website and also on the shingle packaging.

This system is mostly meant for single-ply membranes. We could not say for sure if it would work for aluminum without knowing more about the material, but it is definitely possible.

You bet, let us know if there are any other topics you'd like to see us cover

Tamkko Titan XT is a good shingle - we have installed and repaired. It has a larger nailing strip than the Tamko Heritage so our installers appreciate that.

Thank you, we will try to capture with a live roof build on a future video!

Actually, yes that is accurate when it comes to roofing in the winter. When the shingles are first installed, they may appear to have waves or bumps. As they sit longer in sunny/warm weather, they will "soften" into a flat/sealed position. I imagine they already look better by now, am I right?

Glad OC is working well for you. We have been pleased with how it has worked for our installers and our clients as well!

Thank you for your feedback! True hail damage is a serious matter, we're glad this video was helpful. Let us know if there are any other topics you'd like to see us make a video about.

Usually the repair funds are sent to the homeowner since it's their insurance policy, and they use the funds to pay the contractor for the repair work. Sometimes the payments are made directly to the roofing contractor.

Thank you for your feedback! Let us know if there are any other topics we should cover on our channel.

Thank you Tats!

what color did you use? Wonder if darker colors and the extra heat loosens up the granules.

@@abmcd9381 it is a sand color, not dark.

Hi , valuable comment…Was this the first Duration shingle he spoke about…not the storm or flex, correct?

Owens corning duration shingles or gaf timberline hdz shingles? Getting my roof replaced & trying to decide which ones are better. Thanks

@@gymrat974, what did you go with? We are deciding, as well.

There is no reason why Certainteed hip and ridge could not be installed on any asphalt shingle roof. It should work just fine. But caution that for manufacturer warranty to be valid, the field shingle and hip and ridge should be the same manufacturer.

We are also huge fans of Woodmoor shingles from OC. But with the low availability, we have been proudly installing the CertainTeed Presidential TL instead and have had great results. Very high quality, attractive roofs that are built to last. And our customers that receive the Presidential roofs have been thrilled with the results.

Choosing the right materials is an important part of any roofing installation project!

Tamko has been making some strong products lately. We love the Titan 160 MPH wind warranty. If you choose the Titan, please let us know your thoughts after the installation!

Thanks for your comment! Depending on the metal type chosen, a standing seam roof may last even longer than 90 years. Copper, for example, if well-maintained is "rated" to last 100 years. An external source with similar information is here: homeinspectioninsider.com/how-long-metal-roof-last/

Great eye, this one was Weathered Wood. One of our favorite colors to install in the Presidential Shake line!

Thank you for your question! 10 hits in a test square is not a firm, universal rule. We recently had a customer's roof covered by their policy for five clear hits on one large slope. It is advisable to ask your agent if the carrier has internal guidelines about # of hail hits per test square/slope if you think you might be right on the border.

@@SolVistaRoofing Appreciate the reply. Makes sense. Will look in to it.

That is true, thank you for leaving a comment! We want as much wind resistance as possible so love the 130MPH rating.

Nope, sorry to disagree. Just had a direct hit from Ian and did not lose a single Duration shingle. Yes, my home was devastated by 3 feet of dirty water storm surge, but, not a single roof leak and in the middle of a dark, howling storm, with water up to my waist, belive me, it made a big difference.

Thank you for the suggestion, we will show multiple strikes in future videos to remove any confusion!

@nanadjustersllc3915 Adjusters may try to minimize the damage on their report in an effort to lowball the repair costs to save money for their company. It seems NAN ADJUSTERS is doing just that, you see blistering of shingles is not covered by insurance hence the claim will be denied. On the other hand, hail is a covered peril so the insurance company is liable to pay the claim.

Blistering? Huh? Blistering is extremely circular. Picture someone taking a mini cookie dough cutter and pushing that onto a shingle. You should be able to zoom in and see this is not that. This is either from a hail strike or localized granule loss. Which LGL does appear as hail damage to the untrained eye.

Yes we've found a lot of the insurance companies have rules about the age of the roof. We have also noticed some of those are different than the shingle's rating or expected lifespan. Ultimately it's the homeowner's decision but we are happy to help plan options for their roof to help make the decision easier.

Thank you for the comment! Let us know any other videos you would hope to see us produce.

Sorry to hear about that. Did you let the roofing contractor who installed it know so they can take a look? They may be able to help, and possibly get OC involved if needed.

If it is manufacturer defect it should be covered.

@@kingtigercrownestate9102 Yes, hopefully if they get the contractor involved they'll be able to bring OC on board (if needed), if they're a certified installer.

Thank you for letting us know! Best wishes on your project and let us know if we can help. If there are any other topics that would be helpful for you, comment again so we can keep improving our videos.

We will never use the Owens products again.

@@arcraider937 Why?

@@SolVistaRoofing thank you for the support. Wound up using an Atlas product due to the scarcity of supply of OC in my area.

@@mccurran76 Atlas is also a great choice. One of our top choices (after OC) in our 2022 shingle guide!

Based on what we've seen lately, material prices are continuing to increase. So you'll probably pay less if you do it now vs waiting until next year. Never know 100%, prices could level off, but trends indicate more increases are coming.

@@SolVistaRoofing Thank you for your reply . and your very useful videos

Yeah it takes some time and practice cutting the surenail strip without pulling some of it out. Our team has gotten pretty good at this. And we do see dragging when repairing Duration shingles but in our repair jobs they have not been damaged more than other brands. What is your favorite shingle to work with?

Both you, get cutting shear large snips to literary cut shingles with scissors when low temp and when to warm butterfly blades like old hot guys. Dont cut roof or yourself i use small strip plywood. Repair work done in cold weather only, use flat bar slide angle gently cracking seal strip. Stay thirsty.

​@@SolVistaRoofing land mark and land mark pro are my favorite the impact rating doesn't matter all shingle get impact and they dont make a difference to hail impact I've seen duration get hit and have the same out come as land mark but the worst is IKO Abut you cant say duration is a better impact resist shingle the problem is the grainial lose and land mark pro has less granial lose them most brand out there IKO is trash even the dynasty is trash loses grainial tears easily only good thing about them is they have a mesh were the nails go beside that they suck tear easy lose of granial way to much fiber and not enough asphalt for flex there tar strip comes off and even if it dont it wont stick because of to much grainial lose it's like trying to glue a wrap on a car with the car all dirty not prepped correctly it will peel of same thing with IKO

A noob that shouldn’t be doing repairs will have trouble removing them

@@Zack.G23 , or maybe an idiot chuck in a truck thinking he's a pro and has no idea about duration shingles thinking they can be removed as any other shingle,lol.

The CT Arcadia Shake is a great shingle. We have high winds in our market (Denver) as well, but this shingle has been out of stock for a while here. For similar premium shingles we have been installing a lot of Certainteed Presidendial shingles which also perform well in high winds.

I have 2,100 square feet to cover.

It depends on a few different factors. But on average plan for about 2.5x the cost of shingles, and hopefully you can come in under that number. Keep in mind even if it's 2.5x the cost, metal will last 4x-5x as long!
