At Roof Smith, we’re proud to be a Platinum Preferred Contractor with Owens Corning, one of the most trusted names in roofing materials. This elite status isn’t something every contractor can claim—it’s a distinction that reflects our commitment to craftsmanship, customer service, and long-term value. Only the top 1% of roofing contractors nationwide earn this designation, and we’re honored to bring that level of trust and quality to every job.
What Does It Mean to Be a Platinum Preferred Contractor?
Being an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor means we’ve met rigorous standards of excellence in:
Customer satisfaction
Installation expertise
Business stability
Insurance and licensing requirements
Most importantly, it allows us to offer exclusive warranty options—like the Platinum Protection Roofing System Limited Warranty, which covers both materials and workmanship for up to 50 years. That’s peace of mind you won’t find with just any roofer.
Why We Use Owens Corning Duration® Shingles
We proudly install Owens Corning Duration® Shingles on homes and businesses throughout Colorado, Texas, and New Mexico. These shingles don’t just look great—they perform exceptionally well under pressure, especially during hail season.
Here’s why homeowners and business owners love them:
1. SureNail® Technology
Each Duration shingle includes a unique fabric strip embedded in the nailing area, which provides outstanding gripping power. That means:
130 MPH wind resistance
Better holding power
Improved durability in extreme conditions
2. Bold, Lasting Color
With Owens Corning’s TruDefinition® color platform, Duration shingles offer rich, dimensional color that enhances curb appeal and resists fading over time.
3. StreakGuard™ Algae Protection
No more unsightly black streaks—Duration shingles come with built-in algae resistance to keep your roof looking clean and fresh.
4. Impact Resistance
Some Duration shingles are Class 4 impact rated, meaning they can withstand hail and other harsh weather conditions common in the areas we serve.
Why It All Matters
Your roof is your home’s first line of defense—and we don’t take that lightly. By combining our local expertise and dedication to the highest standards with Owens Corning’s industry-leading materials, we ensure every roof we install is built to last.
If you’re ready to invest in a roof that offers both protection and performance, trust the Platinum Preferred difference with Roof Smith.
