Project: Roof replacement
Location: Eastpoint Dr, Cornelius, NC
Shingle: Owens Corning Duration Series, Driftwood
Crew: Charlotte Ace Roofing
The Project
This two-story home on Eastpoint Dr in Cornelius got a new roof with Owens Corning Duration architectural shingles in Driftwood. It has a brick front, white siding and a big hip roof with several ridges and valleys, so getting the ridge caps and valley work right mattered as much as the shingles themselves.
How We Handle a Roof Replacement
On a full replacement, our crew tears the old roof off down to the decking, checks the decking for soft or damaged spots, and covers the roof in synthetic underlayment before the new shingles go on. Before we leave, we clean up nails and debris and do a final walk-through.
Why It Matters in Cornelius
Cornelius sits on Lake Norman, about 20 miles north of Uptown Charlotte, and wind is part of life here. Duration shingles are built for it: Owens Corning's SureNail strip gives each shingle a wider, reinforced nailing zone, and the line carries a 130 mph wind resistance limited warranty. Driftwood is a warm brown-gray blend, which suits a home that mixes brick and white siding.
