Econo Roofing is an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred contractor — the highest title OC awards. It means your roof is installed to OC's exact standards and backed by their strongest warranty. Not ours. Theirs.
The Designation
What Owens Corning Platinum Preferred means for you.
You cannot buy this. Owens Corning Platinum Preferred is invite-only — the top 1% of roofers in the U.S. When you hire an OC Platinum Preferred contractor, you get something most homeowners never can: OC stands behind both the product and the install. That means access to warranties other roofers cannot offer.
The Difference
Same shingles. Different warranty.
Any licensed contractor can install Owens Corning shingles. But the warranty you get depends on the contractor's tier. Here is what each level unlocks.
The Owens Corning Platinum Protection Limited Warranty is only available through Owens Corning Platinum Preferred contractors. No other tier. No exceptions.
Invitation Only
You don't apply. They choose you.
Owens Corning Platinum Preferred is not something you can buy or sign up for. OC picks contractors who meet every standard — and only after proving it over time.
Demonstrated installation quality.
Every roof is subject to OC inspection. Each install must meet their exact specs. Every time.
Financial stability.
The contractor must show long-term financial health. Owens Corning is staking their name on this company. They verify it can deliver.
Proper insurance and licensing.
Full coverage verified. Workers' comp, general liability, and state contractor licensing — all current, all confirmed.
Ongoing product training.
Crews complete regular Owens Corning training on new products, install techniques, and best practices. Every year.
