Why We Choose CertainTeed Roofing Products
Not all shingles are created equal. CertainTeed’s residential roofing systems are engineered so that every layer works together, from the underlayment to the ridge cap, creating a unified defense against wind, rain, hail, and harmful UV exposure. Their Landmark series, for example, is one of the most popular architectural shingle lines in North America. It offers a dimensional wood-shake appearance with the durability of fiberglass construction and is available in a wide range of colors designed to retain their vibrancy over the life of the roof. The Landmark Pro line takes performance further, featuring a heavier base mat and enhanced algae-resistance technology called StreakFighter, which inhibits the growth of blue-green algae that causes unsightly dark streaks.
For homeowners seeking a premium aesthetic, CertainTeed’s Grand Manor shingles replicate the look of natural slate with multiple layers of material that create dramatic shadow lines and rich depth. These shingles carry some of the strongest warranties in the industry, reflecting the confidence CertainTeed places in their manufacturing standards. As a GAF Certified Plus contractor, we hold ourselves to the highest installation standards regardless of which manufacturer’s products we work with, and our experience with CertainTeed systems ensures every component is placed precisely according to specification.
The Installation Process We Follow
Proper installation is just as important as the quality of the materials themselves. When we arrive at your home in Doylestown, Dublin, Chalfont, New Britain, Plumsteadville, Perkasie, Buckingham, & Montgomeryville, PA, our crew follows a methodical process refined over three generations of roofing work. We begin with a thorough inspection of your existing roof deck, checking for structural damage, moisture intrusion, and ventilation issues that could compromise a new roof’s performance. Any compromised decking is replaced before new materials go down.
Our standard CertainTeed installation includes the following key steps:
- Deck preparation and repair to ensure a clean, solid substrate for the new roofing system
- Application of CertainTeed underlayment products such as DiamondDeck or WinterGuard waterproofing membrane in vulnerable areas like valleys, eaves, and around penetrations
- Starter strip installation using CertainTeed’s SwiftStart starter shingles for a secure bond along the roof’s edge
- Field shingle installation following CertainTeed’s nailing pattern specifications and exposure guidelines
- Ridge cap application and final flashing details to complete the weather-tight envelope
This systematic approach ensures that your CertainTeed warranty remains fully valid and that every component functions as an integrated system. We care deeply about our community, and that means we treat every home with the same attention to detail we would give our own.
CertainTeed’s Advanced Performance Technologies
CertainTeed continues to push the boundaries of what roofing materials can achieve. Their cool roof shingles, for instance, are designed with solar-reflective granules that reduce heat absorption, potentially lowering attic temperatures and easing the burden on your cooling system during hot summer months. Their impact-resistant shingles carry a Class 4 rating under UL 2218 testing, which measures a shingle’s ability to withstand simulated hail strikes. Many insurance providers offer premium discounts for homes with Class 4 rated roofing, making these products a smart long-term investment.
CertainTeed also incorporates SBS polymer-modified asphalt in several product lines, which increases flexibility and helps shingles resist cracking in extreme cold. This modified bitumen technology allows the shingle to expand and contract with temperature fluctuations without losing its waterproofing integrity.
Colors, Styles, and Design Flexibility
One of the most exciting aspects of working with CertainTeed products is the sheer variety of design options available. Their ColorView AI Home Visualizer tool lets homeowners upload a photo of their house and digitally preview different shingle colors and siding combinations before making a commitment. We encourage every homeowner to explore this tool during the planning phase.
Key style categories we frequently install include:
- Traditional architectural shingles offering classic appeal with modern performance characteristics
- Luxury shingles that mimic the appearance of natural slate or cedar shake without the intensive maintenance requirements
- Algae-resistant options ideal for homes in humid or shaded environments where organic growth is a persistent concern
