As a Platinum Preferred Contractor, we are fully licensed, insured, and committed to ongoing training and installation excellence. This status also allows us to offer exclusive Owens Corning extended warranty options that provide stronger protection and long-term peace of mind for your investment.
When you choose Exteriors by Sunrise, you’re choosing a contractor backed by one of the most trusted names in the roofing industry.
Q: Why are there dark streaks on my roof?
Gloeocapsa magma
A: Dark streaks on your roof are caused by an algae species called gloeocapsa magma. It is not generally harmful, though it can be a sign of excessive moisture and even cause granule loss over time. You can lighten the dark streaks on your roof using a solution of bleach and water, or prevent it by choosing algae and streak-resistant shingles.

Q: How can I tell when I need a new roof?
Active leaking = red flag
A: Major issues will be readily visible. The biggest red flag is active leaking. After a storm, inspect your attic for damp spots or discoloration around your chimney and roof vents.
Also look for bald spots from excessive granule loss; missing, curled or cracked shingles; and moss growth. These can lead to leaks and expensive repairs if not addressed. These are the most immediate warnings, but you can read about more signs that your roof needs to be replaced here.

Q: What does a Owens Corning roof warranty cover?
Limited lifetime warranty
A: Owens Corning® shingles and hip and ridge products feature a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects. Extended warranty coverage is also available, including workmanship coverage. And when multiple Total Protection Roofing System components are used together—including synthetic underlayment, ice and water barriers and ventilation—your full shingle warranty coverage will extend to those products as well. This article helps explain the details of our roof warranties.

Why Homeowners Choose a Platinum Preferred Contractor
Choosing a roofing contractor is one of the most important decisions a homeowner can make. Owens Corning Platinum Preferred status is not something that can simply be purchased — it must be earned through proven craftsmanship, business stability, customer satisfaction, and a strong reputation in the industry. Only a select group of contractors qualify for this designation.
At Sunrise Exterior Solutions, our Platinum Preferred status reflects our commitment to doing the job right the first time, using trusted materials, expert installation methods, and clear communication throughout the entire process.
1. Backed by One of the Most Trusted Names in Roofing
Owens Corning carefully vets every Platinum Preferred Contractor to ensure they meet strict standards for professionalism, reliability, and workmanship. When you hire Exteriors by Sunrise, you are working with a contractor trusted and supported by a nationally recognized roofing manufacturer.
This gives homeowners added confidence that their roof is being installed by trained professionals who follow industry best practices and manufacturer-approved installation standards.
2. Access to Exclusive Warranty Protection
One of the biggest advantages of working with a Platinum Preferred Contractor is access to enhanced Owens Corning warranty options that are not available through standard roofing contractors.
These extended warranties can provide:
- Longer workmanship coverage
- Stronger material protection
- Coverage backed by Owens Corning
- Added long-term value for your home
A roof is a major investment, and better warranty protection helps protect that investment for years to come.
3. Proven Reputation & Customer Satisfaction
To maintain Platinum Preferred status, contractors must consistently demonstrate high levels of customer satisfaction and ethical business practices. This means homeowners can expect:
- Professional communication
- Reliable scheduling
- Quality craftsmanship
- Attention to detail
- A clean and organized job site
At Sunrise Exterior Solutions, we believe trust is earned through transparency, quality work, and treating every home like our own.
4. Commitment to Ongoing Training & Excellence
Roofing products and installation standards continue to evolve. As an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor, our team receives ongoing education and training to stay current with the latest roofing systems, installation techniques, and product innovations.
This ensures your roofing system is installed correctly, performs better, and lasts longer.
5. Local Service. National Standards.
As a local company, we take pride in serving our community with honesty, professionalism, and dependable service. Our Platinum Preferred designation allows us to combine personalized local care with the backing and standards of a nationally recognized manufacturer.
When you choose Exteriors by Sunrise, you’re not just hiring another contractor — you’re choosing a company committed to delivering exceptional results and long-term peace of mind.
Q: Should I repair or replace my roof?
A: It can be tricky to know when the wear on your roof stops being repairable and needs replacement.
Owens discusses roof replacement vs. repair in more detail here.
Q: How much does a new roof cost?
A: Many factors can affect your cost, including the size and slope of your roof, the type of shingle, color and system accessories you choose, the warranty protection you choose and the amount of damage to your existing roof. Check out this article to understand all the factors affecting the cost of your new roof.
There are also numerous financing options available. Look for loans with no pre-payment penalties, low monthly payment and/or deferred payments. Ask your expert at Sunrise Exterior Solutions for details on financing options when you get a quote.
Q: How long does a new roof last?
A: Your asphalt shingle roof will generally last between 20-30 years. Architectural shingles normally have a longer life, while 3-tab shingles may have a shorter life. Some Owens Corning shingles feature optional extended protection for up to 50 years. A full roofing system with insulation, ventilation and a water-proof underlayment, can also help extend the life of your roof.
Q: Can I put a solar panel over asphalt shingles?
Yes! Roofs are a perfect spot for solar panels, and they work great over asphalt shingles. Make sure you have enough space, that your roof slope is facing the right direction and that you don’t need to do any major repairs. If your roof is close to the end of its life, it’s best to replace before installing a solar panel. Looking for more information? Check out Sunrise Solar Solutions.
