We recently wrapped up this roof replacement in Fort Lupton, Colorado. This farmhouse now sports Owens Corning’s TruDefinition Duration Flex asphalt shingles in Onyx Black. The transformation is striking and hard to miss. The new black shingles next to the white gutters and beige siding are bold.
Fort Lupton is east of I-25 between Greeley and Brighton. It’s known for its riverfront history as a 19th-century trading post, the reconstructed South Platte Valley Historic Park, and a recreation center with a long waterslide.
Why The Old Roof Had to Go
The old asphalt shingle roof was not only worn out from age, but also had extensive hail damage. The granules on asphalt shingles naturally fall off with age. Most mid-range asphalt shingle roofs only last between 15 and 25 years, even if they haven’t been damaged by hail. This old roof in Fort Lupton was showing its age. Add to that extensive hail damage, and it was time for a new roof.
Why OC’s Duration Flex
These homeowners in Fort Lupton were smart to choose Owens Corning’s Duration Flex shingles. These shingles are SBS polymer-modified, which makes them pliable and gives them greater flexibility than most other shingles. The result is a premium architectural asphalt shingle built for greater durability and toughness, especially in intense storms, to help protect your home for years to come.
These shingles are also Class-4 impact-rated, the highest impact resistance rating in the industry. These are manufactured to minimize roof damage from severe weather and hail. To help protect against harsh weather, they also come with a 160mph wind warranty. This is because of Owens Corning’s SureNail technology, which comes with every Duration Series shingle. This is the nailing line that helps hold your new Duration shingles down.
Why Onyx Black?
Why not? It’s a bold move, and they look great on this farmhouse in Fort Lupton. The black roof next to the white gutters and beige siding is striking and looks sharp. They definitely increase the curb appeal of this house.
