BRIGHT. BOLD. BRILLIANT.

The world is full of color and so are these shingles. If you’re looking to add more drama or a knockout new look for your home, don’t overlook the power of using color on your roof to help coordinate exterior accents like paint, trim, and even landscaping. Rated Class 3 for Impact Resistance1, TruDefinition® Duration® Designer Shingles offer spectacular curb appeal and the advanced performance and durability of our patented SureNail® Technology. This technology provides the ultimate protection in the nailing zone of your shingle with Triple Layer Protection® that results in superior holding power. We proved it in testing.

Color Accuracy

As color experts, we know getting the shingle color right is a big part of any roofing purchase. We recommend you start online to research and narrow down your shingle color options. Due to computer monitor color variations, we suggest you request an actual shingle sample to see how it will appear on your home and with your home’s exterior elements in various natural lighting conditions. Lastly, verify your color choice by seeing it installed on an actual home; your roofing contractor or supplier can provide a sample and may be able to direct you to a local installation.

PRINTED SHINGLE COLOR POSTERS

Choosing the perfect shingle line and color can be a challenge, but it’s also an exciting opportunity to get the look you want. We’ve simplified the process by offering 21” x 24” printed shingle color posters, so you can easily compare the options that might work best for your home.

Trying to figure out your personal exterior design style but don’t know how to start? We can help. It’s easy to create your own style board.

We strive to accurately reproduce all photographs of shingles in literature and for onscreen viewing. The roofing product colors you see are as accurate as technology allows. We suggest that you view a roofing display or several shingles to get a better idea of the actual color. To accurately judge your shingle and color choice, we recommend that you view it on an actual roof with a pitch similar to your own roof prior to making your final color selection.

Due to the variability in real storm conditions, a Class Rating on any product does not guarantee that it will withstand damage from hailstorms or other acts of God. Owens Corning shingles are not covered under a warranty for hail damage.
