What is Surenail technology?<\/p>\n

Before we answer that, we\u2019ll start by saying that if you are having new shingles installed on your roof, you need to insist on shingles with Surenail technology. To explain a bit better, Surenail is a patented technology that Owens Corning developed that has several benefits to the homeowner, but primarily it is designed to help improve the lifespan of your roof.<\/p>\n

Surenail technology is a triple layer of woven engineered fabric, which is found right along the nailing line of their Duration series of shingles. This tough fabric helps offer the ultimate shingle when it comes to protection and reinforcement. The layer itself is very visible. When the JN Roofing team is out giving quotes to our customers in Barrie and Simcoe County, we\u2019ll actually show the homeowners this strip to help them not only see but also understand the difference.<\/p>\n

This helps with a few things such as reducing the likelihood of water entry issues as well as allowing for wind warranties for up to one hundred and thirty miles an hour\u2026 and this is accomplished with the roofer only using as little as four nails!<\/p>\n
