Owens Corning Construction in Pomona, CA
We provide independent Owens Corning roofing installation and repair across Pomona, CA, from Oakridge tear-offs on 1920s bungalows to full Duration architectural systems on newer builds, with Owens Corning repair in Montclair also available nearby. Key Step Construction is not a manufacturer-authorized dealer, and we don’t pretend to be.

Call (855) 382-0824 for a free estimate, and we’ll tell you straight whether your Owens Corning roof needs a repair or a replacement.
Why Pomona Residents Choose Us for Owens Corning Service
Most roofing companies in Pomona can slap shingles on a deck. Fewer understand what Owens Corning systems actually require: correct matching accessories, proper underlayment, ventilation that works with the shingle warranty, and flashing details that survive a Santa Ana gust at 60 miles an hour. We do. Our crews handle the full roof assembly, not just the shingle layer, because a leak rarely starts in the shingle itself. It starts at a valley, a penetration, a flashing seam, or a decking gap the shingles were nailed over.
Noel Garrity, our owner, grew up around construction and studied the trade at Santiago Canyon College before building a reputation for remodels and additions that hold up quietly for decades. He’s the first to say the roof is only as good as the layers beneath it. That’s the mindset we bring to every Owens Corning job in Pomona, from a small repair in 91767 to a full replacement in 91769.

Common Owens Corning Construction Problems We Solve in Pomona
- Granule loss on south- and west-facing slopes. Pomona’s summer sun is brutal, and prolonged UV exposure accelerates granule shedding on Owens Corning architectural shingles. We see Oakridge and Duration roofs in Pomona that look fine from the street but are down to bare asphalt on the sun-blasted planes. Granules protect the asphalt from UV; once they’re gone, the clock speeds up fast.
- Wind-lifted and creased tabs after Santa Ana events. The Santa Anas come down through the canyons and hit Pomona hard, especially along ridgelines and gable ends. Owens Corning shingles can take wind when installed correctly, but older roofs or those with degraded sealant strips get tabs lifted, creased, or torn clean off. We fix the localized damage before it becomes a full replacement.
- Sealant strip failure on aging three-tab and early architectural shingles. The thermal cycling in Pomona, hot days followed by cool desert nights, stresses the adhesive strips that bond shingle tabs. When that bond fails, the tabs flutter in any wind gust, and water works under the shingle layer. On older Owens Corning systems in Pomona, this is often the first sign the roof is nearing the end.
- Premature failure at valleys, penetrations, and dormer flashing. Debris from Pomona’s mature trees collects in valleys, and heat cycling causes metal flashing to expand and contract against the shingles. We routinely find valley metal corroded or step flashing pulled away on Owens Corning roofs that still have years left in the field shingles. That’s a repair, not a replacement, if caught early.
- Decking rot and gaps under otherwise sound shingles. Pomona’s clay soils shift, and older homes settle, which means decking boards can cup or separate under the shingle layer. When an Owens Corning roof leaks and the shingles look fine, the decking below is usually the problem. We see this constantly in the 1920s-era bungalows around 91766 and 91768.
Owens Corning Service in Pomona: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Project
In the 91766 and 91768 ZIPs, many of the 1920s-era bungalows still carry original skip sheathing and spaced board decking under their roofs. That’s a Pomona-specific reality a roofer working in Chino or Claremont rarely deals with, and it changes everything about an Owens Corning re-roof. Spaced decking, typically 1×6 boards with gaps between them, was never meant to support modern architectural shingles, which rely on a solid nailing surface and continuous underlayment. When we pull an old roof in Pomona and find that spaced decking, we add solid decking before the Owens Corning shingles go down. It’s not a markup. It’s the difference between a roof that lasts 25 years and one that fails at the first wind-driven rain because the shingles had nothing solid to anchor into. Older Pomona homes also mean older framing, and we often find the rafter tails need attention once the old roof is off. No roofer can know what’s under the shingles until the tear-off starts, but a contractor who works Pomona week after week knows what to expect and plans for it.
We pulled a wind-damaged Owens Corning Oakridge roof off a 1920s Spanish-revival cottage in the 91766 grid not long ago. The shingles had been nailed directly over original spaced board decking with no solid underlayment beneath them. The leaks weren’t from the shingles. They were from the gaps between boards. We added solid decking, corrected the valley and step flashing, and installed a new Owens Corning architectural system, then walked the owner through why the old decking, not the shingles alone, had caused the problem. Plan it right the first time and the walls take care of the rest.
Owens Corning Models & Products We Service in Pomona
We install and repair the Owens Corning product lines that make sense for Pomona’s climate: Oakridge architectural shingles for homeowners who want a solid mid-tier system with good wind resistance, Duration architectural shingles with SureNail technology for maximum hold in Santa Ana territory, Supreme and Supreme AR three-tab shingles for budget-sensitive replacements and matching existing roofs, and TruDefinition Duration Designer shingles when a Pomona homeowner wants color depth and a premium look on a Spanish-revival or craftsman home.
On the parts side, we match Owens Corning shingles to the correct matching accessories, hip and ridge caps, starter strips, and ventilation components. We don’t substitute generic underlayment or flashing when a manufacturer-specific component is what the assembly calls for. Most leaks trace to the assembly, not the shingle itself, so the accessories matter.

FAQs – Owens Corning Construction in Pomona
No, not correctly. Spaced board decking, common in 91766 and 91768 homes from the 1920s and 1930s, doesn’t provide a solid nailing surface for architectural shingles, and it can’t support continuous underlayment. Owens Corning shingles installed over spaced decking will fail at wind-driven rain and eventually leak through the gaps between boards. We add solid decking before shingles go down, which is why a Pomona re-roof on an older home often costs more than a comparable job in a newer neighboring city. Call (855) 382-0824 for an exact quote, estimates are free.
Santa Ana winds hit Pomona from the northeast and channel through the canyons, putting sustained pressure on ridges, rakes, and gable ends. Owens Corning shingles with strong sealant strips and proper nailing hold up well, but an older roof or sloppy installation will show wind creases and lifted tabs after the first strong event. We recommend an inspection before and after wind season. If you’re seeing lifted shingles, call (855) 382-0824 before the next blow.
Yes, with the right installation. Pomona’s summers are long and hot, and south- and west-facing slopes take the most UV. Oakridge and Duration architectural shingles handle heat better than three-tab because of their heavier construction and granule density, but ventilation matters as much as the shingle. A poorly vented attic in a Pomona summer will cook the shingle deck from below and shorten the roof’s life. We install Owens Corning systems with ventilation matched to the attic, because the shingle is only one part of the assembly.
Often yes. If the field shingles are sound and the damage is localized, a shingle repair makes sense. We match the shingle to the correct Owens Corning line and color, and we inspect the surrounding area for hidden damage before calling it done. But we’ll tell you plainly when an aging Owens Corning roof has moved past spot repair and a replacement is the honest call. Call (855) 382-0824 and we’ll assess it for free.
Yes. When a Santa Ana event tears shingles off a Pomona roof or a sudden storm opens a leak, we respond, tarp the affected area to stop water intrusion, and schedule the permanent Owens Corning repair. Wind-driven damage on a Pomona roof gets worse fast, especially with rain behind it. Call (855) 382-0824 as soon as you see damage, and we’ll get someone out for an estimate.
