How we replace a roof in Rising Sun

On Rising Sun roofs, Owens Corning architectural shingles are the laminate we install most, and Sand Dune is a color Ohio County homeowners keep asking for when they want a warm gray-tan that does not fight the brick. Where a Rising Sun 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.
