Meet your match: A roof that is the total package

By Brooklyn Menefee, The Third Estimate. 

Choose a roofing system that checks all your boxes. 

Just as when you’re looking for that special someone to share your life with, choosing a roof is investing in a long-term commitment that requires careful deliberation. You want to ensure that the roofing system you choose is the perfect fit for you — one that is secure, stable and attractive. We at The Third Estimate understand the importance of this decision and have found a perfect match for you: Owens Corning Total Protection Roofing System®. 

One system. One brand. Total protection. 

The beauty of the Total Protection Roofing System® is how everything works together. Owens Corning took the guesswork out of roofing by offering a full lineup of products that are made to perform as a team. Each part plays a specific role in keeping your home protected from top to bottom. Here’s what makes it so effective. 

Seal: Keep moisture out 

Water is one of the biggest threats to any roof. If it gets past the surface, it can cause rot, mold and major damage. Owens Corning tackles that risk with a two-part seal that stops moisture before it becomes a problem. 

• Ice and water barrier: This is placed in the most vulnerable areas of your roof, like valleys, eaves and around chimneys and skylights. It helps prevent leaks caused by ice buildup and heavy rain. 
• Synthetic underlayment: This sits beneath the shingles to give your roof a second layer of water protection. It helps shed rain and protects the roof deck underneath. 

Together, these layers form a powerful barrier that keeps your home dry, no matter the weather. 

Defend: Stand strong against the elements 

Your roof takes a beating from the sun, wind and rain every day. The Total Protection Roofing System® includes durable components that help your roof handle whatever nature throws at it. 

• Starter shingles: These create a clean edge and help seal off the roof at points that are most vulnerable to wind. 
• Shingles: Shingles come in a wide range of colors and styles, giving your home lasting protection and great curb appeal. 
• Hip and ridge shingles: These add extra strength and a finished look to the most exposed parts of your roof — the peaks and ridges. 

Every piece is built to hold strong, resist blow-offs and direct water away from your home. 

Breathe: Keep air moving 

Ventilation is one of the most overlooked parts of a roofing system, but it plays a huge role in keeping your home healthy and energy efficient. Proper airflow in your attic helps reduce heat and moisture buildup that can lead to mold, ice dams and even higher energy bills. 

• Intake ventilation: Let fresh, cool air in through the lower parts of your roof. 
• Exhaust ventilation: Pushes warm, humid air out through the top. 

This balanced airflow helps protect your roof and also keeps your attic cooler in the summer and drier in the winter. 

Why it all matters 

When you choose the Owens Corning Total Protection Roofing System®, you’re choosing more than just a roof. You’re investing in a complete solution that’s designed to perform better, last longer, and look great. Everything works together to protect your home, improve energy efficiency, and give you peace of mind. It’s smart, reliable, and backed by one of the most trusted names in the industry. That’s what makes it such a great choice for homeowners who want quality without compromise.
