The Gold Standard in Residential Roofing
Asphalt shingle roofing remains the most popular choice for homeowners across Southern New Hampshire — and for good reason. When installed by a certified professional, a premium asphalt shingle roof provides decades of reliable weather protection, outstanding curb appeal, and exceptional value. At Compass Exteriors, we exclusively install Owens Corning roofing systems, backed by some of the strongest warranties in the industry.
As an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, we’ve demonstrated the expertise, training, and commitment to quality that sets us apart from typical roofing companies. This certification isn’t just a badge — it means we’ve met rigorous standards for installation quality, business practices, and customer satisfaction. It also means we can offer you warranty coverage that most contractors simply cannot match.
Our Installation Process
Every Compass Exteriors roof replacement follows a meticulous, multi-step process designed to protect your home and deliver a result that lasts:
Step 1: On-the-Roof Inspection — Before we provide any quote, we climb onto your roof and conduct a thorough inspection. We document everything with photos and narrated video, so you can see exactly what we see. No guesswork, no scare tactics — just honest assessment of your roof’s condition.
Step 2: Detailed Proposal — Based on our inspection, we prepare a comprehensive, line-item proposal that breaks down every material and labor cost. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying for — no hidden fees, no surprise charges on completion day.
Step 3: Material Selection — Choose from Owens Corning’s full range of Duration, Duration FLEX, and TruDefinition shingles in dozens of colors and styles. We’ll bring samples to your home and help you select the perfect look for your property.
Step 4: Professional Installation — Our crews follow Owens Corning’s recommended installation specifications to the letter. This includes:
- Complete tear-off of existing roofing materials down to the deck
- Inspection and repair of roof decking as needed
- Ice & water barrier in all valleys, eaves, and penetrations
- Synthetic underlayment across the entire roof surface
- Six-nail fastening pattern for maximum wind resistance
- Proper ventilation assessment and installation
- Ridge vent and hip/ridge cap installation
- Complete flashing replacement at all penetrations and transitions
Step 5: Final Walkthrough & Cleanup — We don’t consider a job done until the site is spotless and you’re completely satisfied. Our magnetic sweep catches every nail, and our final walkthrough ensures every detail meets our standards — and yours.
