Owens Corning Duration Driftwood Roof Replacement in Northwood, Gainesville, FL
This Northwood Gainesville home in ZIP 32653 sits along the NW 33rd Street corridor. The reroof put about 52 squares of Owens Corning Duration architectural shingles in Driftwood on the house, with 4 starter bundles, 9 ProEdge hip and ridge, and new white drip edge. Every full replacement we do includes new drip edge with the new shingles.
The homeowner was referred by Perry Roofing for an aging shingle roof. It was an age-related retail replacement with no storm or insurance claim mentioned. Sales consultant Alex Lawrence walked the project.
This is a finished Showcase case study from a real Northwood Gainesville reroof. You can also view the project on our Northwood Gainesville Driftwood Showcase.

Why Owens Corning Duration Driftwood for a Northwood Gainesville reroof?
Driftwood is a blended gray-brown architectural color that sits cleanly on Gainesville homes with olive or earth-tone siding.
This job was about 52 squares of Owens Corning Duration in Driftwood. Duration is a laminated architectural shingle, so the field has more dimension than an older 3-tab roof. On a Northwood lot in ZIP 32653, the Driftwood field reads natural under North Central Florida UV without looking washed out.
The homeowner already knew the roof was aging and came through a Perry Roofing referral. Staying with Duration Driftwood upgraded the whole system while keeping a familiar asphalt look for the neighborhood.
Does a full Northwood Gainesville reroof include new white drip edge with Driftwood?
Yes. On every full roof replacement we install new drip edge with the new shingles.
This job used new white drip edge. The metal lines the eaves and rakes against the Driftwood field and protects the deck edge where water leaves the roof. Edge metal gets replaced with the system on a full reroof.
Starter used 4 starter bundles, and the hips and ridges were finished with 9 bundles of Owens Corning ProEdge. That pairing is part of the new system, not leftover hardware from the old roof.

What does a finished Driftwood Duration field look like on a Northwood Gainesville roof?
This Showcase is a completed reroof of about 52 squares of Duration in Driftwood, with matching ProEdge ridge caps finishing the peaks and clean boots and vents in the field.
Homes along the NW 33rd Street corridor in Northwood take Alachua County heat, UV, and summer storms. A Duration system with new white drip edge is built for that weather on a wooded Gainesville lot.
