Owens Corning Construction in Oakland Park, FL | Penhallow Remodeling Fort Lauderdale
We’re Penhallow Remodeling Fort Lauderdale, a General Contractor - Oakland Park team that handles Owens Corning roofing and insulation work across the city, from mid-century concrete block homes east of Dixie Highway to newer duplexes west of I-95. Roof replacement with Owens Corning Duration® shingles here typically runs $8,000 – $20,000, and repairs start around $400. The thing that separates our Owens Corning work in Oakland Park is simple: we know what salt air, a 3-foot water table, and daily summer downpours do to shingles and foam board, because we’ve fixed it on hundreds of Broward County homes. Call (754) 551-2922 for a free estimate, and we’ll give you a written price before any work starts.
Why Oakland Park Residents Choose Us for Owens Corning Service
Trevor Nash leads our crews, and he learned the trade at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College before spending nearly twenty years running jobs across South Florida. That means when we show up to look at an Owens Corning roof in Oakland Park, we’re not reading a spec sheet for the first time. We’ve pulled apart Duration® shingle failures within a mile of the Intracoastal, we’ve replaced Oakridge® roofs where the original fasteners never met Miami-Dade wind-load code, and we’ve seen what happens when FOAMULAR® board gets left uncovered in July humidity. We’re an independent contractor, not an Owens Corning dealer or authorized installer. That independence matters because we’ll tell you honestly whether a roof section can be repaired or whether full replacement makes more sense in this corrosive environment. You can also trust our broader Owens Corning sales & service expertise across the region.

Common Owens Corning Construction Problems We Solve in Oakland Park
- Granule loss and surface cracking on Duration® shingles near the Intracoastal. Constant salt spray and intense UV hit west-facing slopes hardest. We see this on homes within a mile of the water, where shingles that should last 25 years start shedding granules by year 12. The fix is usually a targeted section replacement with genuine Owens Corning shingles matched to the existing color line.
- Nail pops and lifted tabs on older Oakridge® roofs. Many mid-century Oakland Park homes have roofs installed before current wind-load requirements. We replace fasteners to meet Miami-Dade standards and re-seat the shingle tabs so the next named storm doesn’t turn a lifted tab into a full tear-off.
- Mold spots and R-value loss in FOAMULAR® rigid foam board. Oakland Park’s humid air wicks moisture into exposed foam during remodels. If the board isn’t covered promptly, it develops mold and loses insulating strength. We replace affected sections and re-cover properly.
- Cupping and curling on Supreme® shingles over low-slope additions. Those roof-over patios that mid-century homeowners love often lack adequate ventilation. Supreme® shingles on low-slope sections curl prematurely. We correct the ventilation and re-shingle as needed.
- Flashing failures where tile meets shingle. Many Oakland Park homes have original tile roofs with shingle additions. The transition flashing corrodes in salt air and leaks during the daily summer downpours. We replace with aftermarket flashing that meets or exceeds local code.
Owens Corning Service in Oakland Park: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s something you won’t find on a generic Owens Corning page. Oakland Park’s water table sits about three feet below grade in many areas east of Dixie Highway. That’s not trivia. It means roof runoff from Owens Corning shingle systems pools around slab foundations unless gutters and downspouts are extended properly. In the higher, sandier parts of western Broward, water drains away faster. Here, it sits. We’ve seen cracked stucco, slab erosion, and even foundation settlement on homes where a previous roofer hung gutters without thinking about where the water would go. When we install or repair an Owens Corning roof in Oakland Park, we check the entire drainage path. Downspout extensions, splash blocks, and grading corrections are part of the conversation, not an afterthought. That’s the difference between a roof that protects your home and a roof that slowly undermines it. For broader coverage, see our Oakland Park service area page.
Owens Corning Models & Products We Service in Oakland Park
Our crews work on the full Owens Corning residential line: Duration® Series shingles (including the Storm class we recommend for hurricane-prone Oakland Park), Oakridge® shingles, Supreme® shingles, and FOAMULAR® rigid foam insulation. We specify genuine Owens Corning replacement shingles, underlayment, and ridge caps whenever we’re matching an existing roof or need to honor a material warranty. For accessories like flashing, sealants, and vents, we use proven aftermarket parts that meet or exceed local code. Since Owens Corning doesn’t offer labor warranties, we’re upfront about what a repair can do versus what a full replacement will cost in Oakland Park’s salt air and humidity. Our field vignette: we replaced a failing Oakridge® roof on a 1960s ranch in Royal Palm Acres, where the original 3-tab shingles had lost their granular surface from decades of salt air. We upgraded to Duration® Storm shingles with synthetic underlayment and a continuous ridge vent. The homeowner noticed an immediate drop in attic temperature and no more leaks during the daily summer downpours.

FAQs – Owens Corning Construction in Oakland Park
Yes, in most cases. Owens Corning’s Duration® Storm line is rated for high wind and the salt air we get east of Dixie Highway. We’ve installed it on dozens of homes within a mile of the water, and it holds up better than most competitors because the granule adhesion resists salt spray. That said, we’ll give you an honest assessment if another material makes more sense for your specific roof. Call (754) 551-2922 for a free evaluation.
We can repair sections in most cases, as long as the underlying decking and underlayment are sound. On those 1950s-70s concrete block homes, we often find the original roof is still solid but the shingles near the eaves or on west-facing slopes are shot. We’ll match the color and style with genuine Owens Corning shingles, and the repair blends in. If the decking is compromised or the roof has had multiple patch jobs, replacement makes more sense. We’ll tell you which one before we quote either.
Yes, and it’s non-negotiable in Oakland Park. We use synthetic underlayment that resists the moisture wicking that salt air and humidity cause, plus corrosion-resistant flashing at every transition, especially where tile meets shingle. The standard felt paper some contractors still use breaks down faster here. Our underlayment spec is included in every written quote.
You need to fix the roof first. Wet insulation means water is getting in, and replacing the insulation without addressing the leak is throwing money away. We’ll find the source, repair the roof or flashing, and then replace the affected FOAMULAR® board or blown-in insulation. For an exact quote, call (754) 551-2922. Estimates are free.
Yes, and it’s one of the few improvements buyers in Oakland Park actively look for. With the mid-century housing stock aging, a roof with transferable material warranty and proper wind-load documentation is a selling point. We’ve had clients tell us their buyer specifically asked about the roof age and brand. A new Duration® roof also improves attic insulation, which helps with cooling costs during those brutal August afternoons. Call (754) 551-2922 for a free replacement estimate.
