"On April 25th and 26th of 2024 I had a new roof installed. I'm 76 and my wife is 67. In our life time we have had 2 homes re-roofed, and 4 new homes built. In our neighbor hood in the past 12 years we have seen 4 homes re-roofed and 9 new construction roofs installed. Never in my life have I seen or heard of this. The roof was installed by a Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor. As they were also a new home builder we had them replace the aluminum fascia also. The shingles were Owens Corning Duration Quarry Gray. After 3 days and no rain we had brown streaks all over the eve drip and fascia . After a good rain the fascia and bottom 3ft of the house was covered in ""tobacco juice"". The rainy season started and every time it rains it happens again. It has slowed up but has become much harder to remove. A full 3 months later we have cleaned it 8 times ourselves and because of our age have had it cleaned 8 times at $30 a pop. The installer opened a case with Owens Corning and they replied, Your Owens Corning Product Warranty Registration Number is: OC-2024-WR-1876212. The formation of a “tobacco-juice” residue, so named for its color, is the normal result of the weathering of asphalt roofing or release of asphalt fractions from roofing materials such as shingles as well as base and cap sheets. Exposure conditions such as intense sunlight, air pollutants, accumulations of moisture/dew, and a prolonged lack of rain can cause the formation of this residue. The residue will not affect the performance of the roof and should not be considered a performance problem The residue is most likely to appear initially following the installation of the roof covering and once it washes away in the first rainy season, it is not likely to reoccur. I asked the installer to install the new fascia 1st so they wouldn't have to pry on the eve drip to install. Their project manger insisted to do it after the roof so it would not be damaged. It wasn't damaged but the eve drip on ever corner is a mess where it was pried out. So the 76 year old homeowner with severe arthritis and heart issues and his 67 year old wife are own their own to continuously keep the mess cleaned up to prevent permanent stain damage. So the answer from ""Best Regards, Carrie Customer Solutions Agent"" and the installer, is kick rocks. There's a reason you can't post comments to Owens Corning RU-vid videos or google reviews to their web site!"

Its fine. It's almost impossible to get a nice color match with how long the shigles have aged. Nunca se miran igual aunque son la misma color. Good work! Saludos des Woodburn Oregon. Animo amigo!
Lots of walking and talking. You need to show a bit more of how to rather than talk about it and then show the finished product. Actions speak louder than words is a good expression for this video. You can give instructions, but show your work in action. Your videos will do better that way.
