Driftwood Shingles in Gainesville, FL
This project involves the replacement of a roof originally installed in 2011, bringing the home up to current standards for durability, performance, and curb appeal. After more than a decade of exposure to Florida sun, heat, and seasonal storms, the existing roofing system had reached the point where a full reroof was the most reliable long-term solution. A complete replacement allows for proper inspection of the decking, updated underlayment, and a clean installation that eliminates the risks associated with aging materials. The new roofing system features Owens Corning Duration shingles in Driftwood, a versatile color that blends soft gray and brown tones. Driftwood is a popular choice for homeowners who want a neutral look that complements a wide range of exterior finishes without appearing too dark or too light. White drip edge was selected to provide a clean, crisp edge along the roofline, while brown boots, vents, and paint create a balanced contrast that ties the entire system together. Covering approximately 50 squares, this is a substantial residential reroof that requires precise measurements, consistent shingle alignment, and attention to ventilation placement. Owens Corning Duration shingles are known for their SureNail® Technology, which reinforces the nailing zone and improves wind resistance. This added strength is especially important for homes replacing roofs that have already seen years of weather-related wear. By replacing the 2011 roof with a modern architectural shingle system, the homeowner gains improved protection, updated aesthetics, and greater confidence heading into future storm seasons. Proper installation and material selection ensure the roof performs as intended for many years to come. https://brehmroofing.com/choosing-the-perfect-color-for-your-asphalt-shingle-roof-enhance-your-homes-appeal/
