Description:
This Sawgrass shingle roof installation highlights Prime Roofing’s precision craftsmanship and expertise in high-end architectural roofing systems. The project focused on installing the Owens Corning Duration line in “Amber,” delivering a warm, textured look while maximizing wind resistance up to 130 MPH. Special attention was given to critical detail areas, including the installation of new black step flashing around the stucco chimney and precise hip and ridge alignment, ensuring a watertight seal and clean architectural lines.
