Owens Corning Duration Onyx Black Roof Replacement in Hamilton Heights, Gainesville, FL
This Hamilton Heights home along the NW 6th Place corridor in west Gainesville, FL 32607 needed a full shingle replacement after a tree fell through the roof. The project came in as a BNI referral from Best Restoration, and the homeowner stayed with architectural shingles.
We installed about 38 squares of Owens Corning Duration in Onyx Black with 11 rolls of MFM SA starter, 7 bundles of OC ProEdge hip and ridge, and new black drip edge throughout. Sales consultant Alex Lawrence walked the project in Hamilton Heights.
A reroof permit was pulled for this replacement. Issuer is not confirmed in the ProLine record we used for this write-up, so we do not invent a jurisdiction here. View the finished project on our Hamilton Heights Showcase.
Why Owens Corning Duration Onyx Black after a tree fell through the roof?
Owens Corning Duration in Onyx Black was the system chosen for this full Hamilton Heights replacement after storm-related tree damage opened the old roof.
A tree through the roof is not a patch-and-hope job when the deck and field are compromised. Duration Onyx Black is a dark multi-tone architectural shingle that fits a residential west Gainesville lot in ZIP 32607. About 38 squares covered this home, with 11 rolls of MFM SA starter and 7 ProEdge hip and ridge bundles finishing the peaks.
Sales consultant Alex Lawrence scoped the work from a BNI referral through Best Restoration. That path kept the homeowner moving from damage to a planned full reroof instead of a temporary cover that would not last.
Does a full Gainesville reroof include new drip edge?
Yes. On every full roof replacement we install new drip edge with the new roof system.
This Hamilton Heights job used new black drip edge throughout with the Onyx Black Duration field. Edge metal lines the eaves and rakes and protects the deck edge where water leaves the roof. Old drip edge does not stay on a full Brehm reroof.
What does a finished Duration Onyx Black field look like in Hamilton Heights?
This Showcase is a completed reroof with a clean Onyx Black Duration field, matching ProEdge on the ridges, and finished planes along the NW 6th Place corridor in west Gainesville.
Gainesville homes take Alachua County heat, summer storms, and neighborhood tree cover. A Duration system with new black drip edge is built for that weather on a residential lot in ZIP 32607.

FAQs
Can a tree through the roof be repaired instead of replaced?
Sometimes a small puncture can be patched, but when a tree opens a large section of field and deck, a full reroof is usually the cleaner path. This Hamilton Heights Showcase was a full Duration Onyx Black replacement after tree damage, not a spot repair. Ask your sales consultant to walk the deck and say whether a patch or a full system makes sense.
Is Onyx Black a good color choice for west Gainesville homes?
Onyx Black is a dark multi-tone Duration color that works well on light stucco and tree-covered Gainesville lots like this Hamilton Heights home. Color preference is personal, so walk sample boards on your elevation with your sales consultant before you lock the order.
What should I ask about starter and hip or ridge on a Duration quote?
Ask whether the quote includes self-adhered starter and manufacturer hip and ridge that match the field color. This Hamilton Heights job used 11 rolls of MFM SA starter and 7 ProEdge bundles with the Onyx Black field. Those finishing pieces are part of a complete Duration system, not optional add-ons you should have to chase later.
