This week we have the final part of my interview with Sue Burkett of Owens Corning. She’s educating us about how we can make a statement with roof color using Owens Corning roof shingles.
If you think of the front of your house like a face, then the roof is like hair. And roof color, like hair color, can drastically alter the overall appearance and reflect your personal style.
What I love about Owens Corning shingle colors is that they have so much dimension. In keeping with our hair analogy, their shingles aren’t just flat, uninteresting colors. Instead, the roof shingles have depth, kind of like highlights and low lights in hair color.
Take a look at Owens Corning.com for inspirational photos of their roof shingles and design tools that will let you test out different roof colors on photos of sample houses that they have on their site or on house photos that you can upload yourself.

Too often we think of our home’s roof as only a structural element, when, in fact, choosing roofing that’s also stylish and unique is a great opportunity to make your house stand out from others in the neighborhood. On average, a roof accounts for 40% of the home’s exterior appearance. So choosing the perfect roof color is vitally important in building a distinctive and attractive dream home.
This week and next week, we’ll hear about Owens Corning Roofing. Now, you probably know Owens Corning’s insulation by its signature pink color. But they also produce other products for the home, including roofing. Sue Burkett will tell us about Owens Corning roof shingles, which come in beautiful hues that are tasteful, but far from ordinary.

This week we're talking about dishwashers. We’ll cover some of the newest and most popular options that you’ll have to choose from when selecting a new dishwasher. Since most of our homes already had a dishwasher installed when we bought them, many of us have never had to shop for a dishwasher. I’m hoping these 12 quick tips will help you narrow your choices.
