A replacement in New Albany, IN starts on the deck, not at the color chart. 19th-century houses, mid-century neighborhoods toward the west end, and newer infill.
On New Albany roofs, Owens Corning architectural shingles are the laminate we install most, and Sand Dune is a color Floyd County homeowners keep asking for when they want a warm gray-tan that does not fight the brick. Where a New Albany roof wants metal instead, we price Steel Guard shingles as their own system. GAF architectural shingles are an option when a match or a budget calls for them. We do not invent a certification level we do not hold.
New Albany is the most material-diverse city we serve. Mansion Row is not a vinyl-siding conversation, and a west-end ranch is not a slate repair.
