How CertainTeed Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

CertainTeed makes a solid shingle. That said, every roof has a personality, and after years of pulling these systems apart in Santa Clarita, we know exactly where they give up. Here’s what we typically find:

• Presidential Shake and Presidential Shake TL cupping at the eaves. These thick, high-profile shingles are heavy and they hold heat. On south-facing slopes in Valencia and Saugus, repeated 110-degree afternoons cause the outer asphalt layer to dry and curl upward at the bottom edge. Once that happens, wind-driven rain gets under the shingle. We fix it by replacing the affected courses and checking that the original installer used the right nail schedule, which is often not the case.
• Landmark and Landmark Pro granule loss from Santa Clarita wind gusts. The Landmark line is a dependable architectural shingle, but the granules wear faster on roofs near the western edge of the valley where the afternoon winds come off the hills. A roof that sheds granules too early in its life usually had the shingles installed too close together, which creates friction at the edges during thermal expansion. We repitch the spacing during install so the shingles breathe.
• Northgate and Highland Slate adhesive strip failures in low-slope sections. These slate-profile shingles rely on heat-activated adhesive strips to seal. On Santa Clarita roofs where a section falls below a 4:12 pitch, the shingles never get hot enough for the adhesive to bond fully during winter installation. Then they lift in the first windstorm. Our fix is to install these lines only on appropriately pitched sections and hand-seal any questionable course in writing.
• Flashing failure around Santa Clarita chimney crickets. Most CertainTeed roofs we replace in older Canyon Country neighborhoods have metal step flashing that was measured too short. The heat cycle works the seal loose within five or six years. We cut full-height custom flashing and integrate it with the CertainTeed underlayment system so the roof’s warranty timeline makes sense.
• Roofing felt ripples under CertainTeed shingles on homes without ridge ventilation. We see this constantly in Saugus and Newhall homes built before 2005. The attic runs 130 degrees, the felt wrinkles, and the shingles follow the wrinkle. The real fix is a ventilation plan plus new felt, not just shingle replacement. We quote both as a single job.

Our CertainTeed Roof Installation Process

Here is how a CertainTeed installation goes with us, from first call to final walkthrough:

1. 1
   You call and a person answers. We book a time to walk your roof, and we show up when we say we will. You’ll know who is coming before they arrive.
2. 2
   We inspect and measure. We check decking, flashing, ventilation, and existing shingle condition. We write down every finding and we take photos you can keep.
3. 3
   We hand you a written price. The number on that page is the number you’ll pay. No change orders unless we uncover hidden rot and you approve every dollar first.
4. 4
   We install. Old shingles come off, decking gets repaired if needed, underlayment goes on, flashing gets replaced, and CertainTeed shingles get installed to the manufacturer’s nailing pattern. We photograph the work before and after.
5. 5
   We clean up and walk through. We pick up nails with a magnetic sweep, show you what we installed, and answer questions. You get a digital invoice by text before we leave.
6. 6
   You get the warranty in writing. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is included with every installation. If something we installed fails within a year, we correct it at no charge.

What CertainTeed Roof Installation Costs in Santa Clarita

CertainTeed installations in Santa Clarita run a wider range than people expect, so here are honest numbers from the jobs we quote:

• Landmark architectural shingle installation: $6,500 to $11,000 for a typical 1,800 to 2,400 square foot single-story home.
• Presidential Shake installation: $14,000 to $22,000 for the same footprint. The shingle itself is pricier and the labor is slower because each piece is thicker and harder to cut.
• Landmark Pro installation with full tear-off: $9,000 to $15,000, depending on decking repair and number of roof penetrations.
• Northgate or Highland Slate installation: $11,000 to $18,000. These lines have a steeper material cost and require more careful flashing work around chimneys and valleys.

What moves the price? Pitch, stories, number of penetrations, decking condition, and whether your home is in a Stevenson Ranch HOA that requires a specific color line. Every estimate we hand you is one we’d be comfortable signing twice. Call (661) 219-7793 and we’ll give you a written number before you decide anything.
