Owens Corning Duration Quarry Gray — Dolphin Street, Jamestown

Like most Pinnacle roofing projects, the work was completed in a single day — minimizing disruption for the homeowner.

Pinnacle makes every roof affordable with monthly financing options to make your home project affordable with low monthly payments, including 0% interest for 18 months.

This home at 58 Dolphin Street in Jamestown was due for a full roof replacement. The homeowner selected Owens Corning TruDefinition Duration shingles in Quarry Gray — a color specifically chosen to complement the home’s cedar shake siding. As the cedar weathers and grays over time, it enhances the silver-weathered appearance that pairs naturally with the Quarry Gray shingle, creating a cohesive, timeless look that improves with age.

Scope of Work

Pinnacle’s crew stripped the old shingles, inspected the deck for moisture damage, and installed the complete Owens Corning roof system — ice and water shield at eaves and penetrations, synthetic underlayment across the field, new drip edge, starter strip, TruDefinition Duration shingles in Quarry Gray, and matching hip and ridge caps. This is a complete residential tear-off and re-roof — every layer removed, every component replaced with the new system from deck to ridge.

What We Installed (And Why)

Owens Corning TruDefinition Duration is a heavyweight architectural shingle with Owens Corning’s patented SureNail Technology — a reinforced nailing zone that provides superior wind resistance rated to 130 MPH. The TruDefinition color system delivers enhanced depth and dimension through a multi-tonal granule blend. Quarry Gray mixes cool gray tones with subtle warm accents, creating a roof surface that reads as natural stone rather than manufactured material.

The color pairing with cedar shake siding is intentional. New cedar has a warm, honey-brown tone, but over a few years it weathers to a silver-gray patina. Quarry Gray is calibrated to sit right in the range of that weathered cedar tone — neutral enough to pair at every stage of the cedar’s aging process, from fresh to fully weathered. It’s a color match that gets better with time rather than worse.

Good To Know

Color coordination between roofing and siding is one of the most impactful decisions in a roof replacement — and one that’s easy to get wrong. Shingles and siding age differently, and a color that looks perfect on install day can clash within a few years as materials weather. Cedar shake siding changes the most dramatically, shifting from warm brown to silver-gray over 3 to 7 years depending on exposure. Choosing a shingle color in the gray family — like Quarry Gray — ensures the roof and siding converge rather than diverge as they age. It’s a simple decision that pays visual dividends for the life of the roof.

Why This Approach Works

A clean, full-system roof replacement with a carefully selected color is the most common Pinnacle project — and the one where execution matters most. No complex geometry, no specialty materials — just proper tear-off, thorough deck inspection, and precise installation of every component from ice and water shield to ridge cap. The Owens Corning Duration system delivers 130 MPH wind resistance, SureNail Technology, and algae-resistant granules. The Quarry Gray color was selected to enhance the home’s cedar siding — a detail that shows the kind of thoughtful planning that separates a good roof replacement from a great one.
