When it comes to shingle re-roofing in Live Oak, FL, our recent project truly stood out. Just two days before Hurricane Helene brought winds of up to 99 mph, we completed a shingle installation on three two-story apartment buildings, totaling 250 roofing squares. Using Owens Corning TruDefinition Duration shingles, the new roof weathered the storm perfectly, with not a single shingle lost. The wind readings, sourced from NOAA, reported sustained winds of 70 mph and gusts up to 99 mph near Dowling Park, underscoring the challenging conditions our installation faced.
Why Our Shingle Installation is Built to Last
The project involved removing the old roof and installing a high-quality replacement. Here’s what went into the installation:
- 16,500 shingles securely fastened with 99,000 nails, ensuring robust wind resistance.
- Approximately 50,000 pounds of material handled, including the removal of the old roof and the installation of 47,250 pounds of new shingles.
- Owens Corning TruDefinition Duration shingles are rated for 130 mph wind resistance and provide Class 3 impact resistance.
These shingles come with a limited lifetime warranty, 30-year life expectancy, and 25 years of algae resistance, making them ideal for homeowners in Live Oak who need durable and reliable roofing solutions.
The Results Speak for Themselves

The performance during the hurricane demonstrated the superior durability of our shingle installation and the exceptional quality of Owens Corning products
