Avatar Roofing just finished replacing a clean roof in Tampa with 17 squares of Estate Gray shingles from the Owens Corning Duration line. The shingles in the before pictures were worn out and had uneven color, which is common in our sun, salt, and stormy weather conditions. The after photos show a clean, even finish that instantly enhances the home’s curb appeal from the street.
For this project, our team removed the existing roof, checked the deck, replaced any damaged sheathing, and put down synthetic underlayment to protect against moisture. We used Owens Corning Duration shingles in Estate Gray, a popular choice among homeowners because it complements both light and dark exterior colors.



What are Duration shingles? They have features that have been proven to work over time, such as the SureNail technology, which ensures the nails are always in the right place and hold things together well. They also resist high winds when installed correctly. The color blend gives the finish a modern, slate-like look without the weight or cost of stone products. The dimensional look adds depth.
Paying attention to detail on Tampa homes is essential. We flashed penetrations, sealed transitions, and aligned courses to ensure that the lines at the ridges and eaves were clean. It was confirmed that proper ventilation helps shingles last longer and keeps the attic cool during the hot summer months.
The result is a strong, sharp roof that protects the house and raises its resale value. Estate Gray gives things a polished look today, and it will keep working well for years to come.
