Roofing systems

Cornerstone. Keystone. Capstone.

Every Limestone system is built on Owens Corning shingles, starter and ridge caps, installed by the same crews, photographed layer by layer and managed by one project lead. Keystone and Capstone go further: the complete Owens Corning Total Protection Roofing System®, from the ice and water barrier up.

Ratings and warranties come from Owens Corning product literature and can change; your contract lists the exact coverage for your system. System warranty coverage depends on the Owens Corning warranty tier and contractor certification. Insurance discounts vary by carrier; many give a larger premium reduction for Class 4 than Class 3. Product availability varies by region. Keystone and Capstone photos are representative.
