County Roofing Long Island Awarded Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Status
Holding Owens Corning’s top tier comes down to consistency, job after job, year after year. A credential like this tells a homeowner that a major manufacturer has looked at our track record and put its name behind our work. That is the kind of assurance people want when they hire a roofer.
County Roofing, a Melville-based contractor serving Long Island and New York City, has obtained Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor status, the manufacturer’s highest contractor credential.

MELVILLE, N.Y. – July 3, 2026 – County Roofing, a roofing contractor serving Nassau County, Suffolk County, and the greater New York City area for over 35 years, has obtained Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor status, the highest tier in the Owens Corning Roofing Contractor Network. The level is reserved for a small percentage of the contractors the manufacturer works with.

Platinum Preferred is the top of the three tiers Owens Corning offers its network contractors, above the Preferred and standard levels. Reaching it is not a matter of signing up. A contractor must meet the manufacturer’s standards for licensing, insurance, experience, and customer satisfaction, and must maintain those standards to keep the status over time. County Roofing has met and continues to maintain those requirements.

The qualifications behind the credential focus on reliability and track record. Platinum Preferred contractors are required to carry proper licensing and insurance, demonstrate a sustained history of quality workmanship, and uphold high customer satisfaction ratings. Because the manufacturer reserves the top tier for a limited number of contractors, the status signals a level of standing that most roofing companies do not reach.

The benefit to homeowners is practical. A Platinum Preferred contractor has been vetted by the manufacturer against consistent standards, which lowers the uncertainty involved in hiring a roofer. The status also enables enhanced manufacturer warranty coverage that standard installers cannot offer, which strengthens the long-term protection on a finished roof.

“Holding Owens Corning’s top tier comes down to consistency, job after job, year after year,” said Keith Schmied, founder and CEO of County Roofing. “I am on our projects personally, and a credential like this tells a homeowner that a major manufacturer has looked at our track record and put its name behind our work. That is the kind of assurance people want when they hire a roofer.”

The Owens Corning Platinum Preferred designation is one of three top-tier manufacturer certifications County Roofing holds. The company is also a GAF Master Elite contractor and a CertainTeed ShingleMaster PREMIER, representing the highest contractor levels offered by all three major roofing manufacturers. Holding all three at once places County Roofing among a small group of contractors in the Long Island and New York metropolitan area, and it lets homeowners choose among the full product lines of every major manufacturer rather than being limited to one brand.
