The Owens Corning Total Protection Roofing System
A roof is more than just shingles; it's a lot of different components engineered to work together, and the parts you never see are often the ones doing the hardest work.
The Different Components Of Your Roof
When Armour Roofing and Exteriors installs your roof in Littleton, CO, every layer is chosen to work seamlessly with the layers around it, providing one complete system and total protection from the Colorado weather.
Seal
Protects the parts of the roof where water tends to collect or flow, including valleys, eaves, chimneys, and skylights. It also helps prevent damage associated with shingle blow-off, wind-driven rain, and ice damming.
Provides a water-shedding barrier underneath the shingles that helps guard against damage from wind-driven rain.
Defend
The first row of shingles provides a clean look along the eaves and rakes of the roof, which are usually the most vulnerable to high winds and water infiltration.
The shingles we all know and love! They serve as the first layer of defense against the Colorado weather, bringing strength and curb appeal in a wide array of colors and styles.
View Shingles
Adds a nice, finished look to your roof while adding extra protection to the hips and ridges, which are also vulnerable to high winds. They're also designed to match and complement Owens Corning shingles.
Breathe
Help replace the warm, humid air in your attic with cool, dry air. This constant, balanced airflow prevents moisture damage in your attic, ice damming, and premature shingle deterioration.
Works seamlessly with the VentSure Intake Ventilation system to keep attic temperatures and humidity under control, keeping your interior components protected.
Why The Total Protection Roofing System Matters
Individual roof components can be well made but still perform poorly with other parts. For example, an underlayment that doesn't integrate with the ice and water barrier, or ventilation that's undersized for the attic volume. This creates weak points that no shingle can compensate for.
Installing a complete system means the components are designed to one standard and tested as an assembly. It also matters for warranty coverage; manufacturers offer their strongest enhanced warranty protection when certified contractors like Armour Roofing and Exteriors install the full system, rather than a mix of parts from different sources.
