Cool Composite Roofing Shingles | Visalia, California

Spacious home with new composite roofing in Visalia, California

Duration® Series / Owens Corning Roofing — Visalia, California

The Baileys who own this spacious home needed to update their 1992 shake roof. They chose Visalia Roofing & Construction because they were familiar with our operations and knew they could trust us with the job.

Protecting the Backyard Landscape

There was an enormous amount of old roofing material to remove. The Baileys had recently re-landscaped their backyard. To protect their investment, we built plywood shields over their new plants. The result: Not one plant was damaged

Out with the Old, In with the New

Visalia Roofing tore off the old shake shingles, installed OSB plywood, and reroofed with TruDefinition® Duration®, Cool Shingles from Owens Corning.

Roofing Installation

Duration® is a favorite in the roofing industry, because of its patented SureNail® Technology, which ensures better installation and performance. Roofing from Owens Corning is noted for its resistance to extreme weather conditions.

Cool Roofing = Energy Savings

Because these composite shingles are specifically engineered to reflect the sun’s rays and to absorb less heat than traditional roofing materials, the Bailey’s will save on their energy bills. They will also be more comfortable in their home. Cool roofs are estimated to save 10% to 15% on energy bills.

Composite Shingle Roofing Durability

These composite shingles are also designed to be more durable by better withstanding both hot summer sun and cold winter weather. Adding to their durability is the reinforced nail line with additional adhesive that gives shingles 130 mph wind resistance. The new synthetic underlayment we use is a huge improvement over the older felt underlayments, which can tear.

 “I knew when we got a new roof we would go with Visalia Roofing…”

Our prior roof was shake, the original roof on our home built in 1992. It was still good but looked old and dated, plus insurance no longer wanted to insure it. So we decided to go ahead and put in a new roof. I had known Steve Williamson and thought he ran a good operation, so I knew when we got a new roof we would go with Visalia Roofing. It was a large roof, a big project. They did a really good job. It was so hot at the time, but they showed up every morning early and got it done. I would recommend them because they did a good job, they’ve been in business a long time, and, once they started, they got it done.
