What Is the Owens Corning Total Protection Roofing System?

The Owens Corning Total Protection Roofing System is not just a shingle replacement — it is a complete, layered roofing system where every component works together to protect your home. Unlike standard installations that only replace the shingles, our system addresses every layer from the roof deck up, eliminating the weak points that lead to leaks, wind damage, and premature failure.

Every layer is engineered by Owens Corning to hand off protection to the next, creating a fully integrated system that performs better and lasts longer than any individual product alone. When all six components are installed by a certified contractor like ABC Contractor LLC, your roof qualifies for the highest level of Owens Corning warranty coverage available.

The 6-Layer Owens Corning Roofing System

• ✔ Layer 1 – Roof Deck Protection: A structurally sound, inspected and repaired roof deck is the foundation the entire system depends on. We never cover over deck problems.
• ✔ Layer 2 – Ice & Water Barrier (WeatherLock®): Owens Corning WeatherLock® Self-Sealing Ice & Water Barrier is applied along all eaves, valleys, and vulnerable areas. Required by New Jersey building code in cold climate zones to prevent ice dam damage and wind-driven rain infiltration.
• ✔ Layer 3 – Underlayment: A secondary weather-resistant barrier is applied across the full roof field, acting as a last line of defense if shingles are ever compromised by extreme weather.
• ✔ Layer 4 – Starter Strip Shingles: Owens Corning starter shingles seal the roof's edge and rake — one of the most common entry points for wind-driven water.
• ✔ Layer 5 – Architectural Shingles: Your chosen Owens Corning shingle line — Duration®, Oakridge®, TruDefinition® Duration COOL, or Berkshire® Collection — installed with SureNail® Technology for exceptional wind resistance.
• ✔ Layer 6 – Hip & Ridge Cap + Ventilation: Owens Corning hip and ridge cap completes the ridge line. Proper attic ventilation extends shingle life, prevents moisture buildup, and reduces cooling costs year-round.

Duration® Series – Most Popular in New Jersey

The Owens Corning Duration® Series is our most popular choice for NJ homeowners. Built with patented SureNail® Technology, Duration shingles deliver a wider nailing zone that dramatically improves wind uplift resistance — tested and rated up to 130 mph wind resistance. The Duration Series comes in over 30 colors and carries a Limited Lifetime warranty. Ideal for coastal New Jersey properties and inland areas prone to high-wind events.

Oakridge® – Best Value

The Owens Corning Oakridge® shingle delivers a classic, dimensional look at a budget-conscious price point. Oakridge provides excellent protection with a 130 mph wind resistance rating and a Limited Lifetime warranty, making it a smart value for homeowners who want quality without overspending.

Berkshire® Collection – Premium Aesthetics

The Owens Corning Berkshire® Collection replicates the beauty of cedar shake or natural slate at a fraction of the cost — and with far greater durability. A beautiful option for historic homes, upscale neighborhoods, and HOA-governed communities throughout New Jersey.

Owens Corning Warranty – Full Coverage for New Jersey Homeowners

One of the most important advantages of choosing ABC Contractor LLC as your Owens Corning installer is access to the highest level of Owens Corning warranty coverage available. Standard manufacturer warranties cover materials only. But when installed by a certified Owens Corning Preferred Contractor like ABC Contractor LLC, you unlock significantly stronger protection.

The Owens Corning Platinum Protection Limited Warranty is the strongest coverage available and is only accessible through certified Preferred Contractors. Key benefits for New Jersey homeowners include:

• ✔ Up to 50 years of coverage — materials and workmanship combined
• ✔ Labor costs included — not just materials
• ✔ Non-prorated coverage in the critical early years of ownership
• ✔ Fully transferable to a new homeowner — a real selling point in NJ's competitive real estate market
• ✔ Registered directly with Owens Corning — your warranty is documented and on file with the manufacturer
• ✔ Wind resistance coverage — up to 130 mph on qualifying shingle lines
• ✔ Algae resistance coverage — StreakGuard™ protection backed by the warranty

ABC Contractor LLC registers every Owens Corning roof we install directly with the manufacturer, so your warranty is fully documented and protected from day one.

Owens Corning Material Quality – What Makes It Different

Owens Corning has been manufacturing roofing products since 1938 and is one of the most trusted names in the roofing industry. Their shingles and system components are engineered with proprietary technologies that set them apart from standard roofing materials available at big box stores.

SureNail® Technology

SureNail® Technology is an Owens Corning exclusive found in the Duration® Series. A unique fabric strip is woven into the nailing zone of the shingle, providing a dramatically wider and stronger fastening area. Third-party testing has confirmed that SureNail® Technology delivers superior holding power compared to standard shingles — critical for surviving the high winds, nor'easters, and coastal storms that New Jersey homeowners face every year.

StreakGuard™ Algae Resistance

StreakGuard™ Algae Resistance is built into the granules of qualifying Owens Corning shingles. New Jersey's humid climate creates ideal conditions for algae growth, which causes the dark streaking and black staining that ruins the appearance of roofs across the state. StreakGuard granules actively resist algae growth, keeping roofs looking new for significantly longer than standard shingles.

ThermaShield™ Technology

ThermaShield™ Technology is incorporated into Owens Corning's COOL roofing line, including TruDefinition® Duration COOL shingles. Special solar-reflective granules reduce the amount of heat absorbed by the roof surface, lowering attic temperatures and reducing the load on air conditioning systems. For New Jersey homeowners, this can translate to measurable savings on cooling costs during hot and humid summers.

Fiberglass Mat Construction

All Owens Corning architectural shingles are built on a fiberglass-reinforced mat that provides exceptional dimensional stability. Unlike older organic mat shingles, fiberglass construction resists moisture absorption, warping, and cracking — all of which are accelerated by New Jersey's freeze-thaw cycles and temperature extremes.

WeatherLock® Ice & Water Barrier

Owens Corning's WeatherLock® Self-Sealing Ice & Water Barrier is a critical component of the Total Protection System for New Jersey homes. The self-sealing adhesive backing creates a watertight seal around every nail penetration, preventing water from backing up under shingles during ice dam events — a major threat in Bergen County, Morris County, Passaic County, and other northern NJ areas every winter.

Why Owens Corning Is the Right Choice for New Jersey Homes

New Jersey's climate puts roofs through some of the most demanding conditions on the East Coast. Owens Corning products are specifically engineered for these conditions:

• ✔ Winter: Freeze-thaw cycles, ice dams, heavy snow loads, and nor'easters — WeatherLock® barrier and SureNail® shingles provide critical protection
• ✔ Spring & Fall: Heavy rain, wind, and rapid temperature changes — fiberglass mat construction and complete system integration prevent infiltration
• ✔ Summer: Intense UV exposure and high humidity — ThermaShield™ granules reduce heat absorption and StreakGuard™ resists algae growth
• ✔ Coastal NJ: Salt air corrosion and sustained wind exposure — 130 mph wind-rated Duration® shingles hold where others fail
