Your roof is your home's most critical line of defense. When it's performing well, you never think about it. When it's not, everything inside is at risk. We install asphalt shingle roofing built to last.

The Landmark is CertainTeed's best-selling shingle and one of the most widely installed residential roofing products in North America. Its dual-laminated design mimics the dimensional look of real wood shake at a fraction of the cost. Built on a fiberglass mat base with QuadraBond™ technology securing its layers, CertaSeal™ adhesive for wind resistance, and NailTrak® guidance for precise installation, Landmark sets the benchmark for quality and value in architectural roofing.

Landmark PRO is a step up from the standard Landmark — approximately 20% heavier and thicker — delivering greater durability and a richer visual presence. Its distinguishing feature is the Max Def™ color palette, which uses higher-contrast granule blends for deeper, more vibrant coloration than standard Landmark shingles. If you want the proven performance of Landmark with added substance and more dramatic curb appeal, Landmark PRO is the professional's upgrade.

Landmark® ClimateFlex® UL 2218 Class 4 Impact Resistant shingles combines the beauty and dimensionality of wood shake roofing with the durable performance of polymer-modified asphalt. This results in a high-quality designer shingle that offers enhanced resistance to damaging hail, superior surface granule adhesion, and all-weather performance to protect a home year-round in any climate.

NorthGate ClimateFlex is CertainTeed's highest-performance architectural shingle, engineered with SBS (styrene-butadiene-styrene) polymer-modified asphalt — the same rubberizing technology used in commercial roofing. This modification makes the shingles substantially more flexible than standard asphalt, allowing them to resist cracking during cold-weather installation and extreme temperature swings, while also delivering Class 4 impact resistance against hail. Winner of the Product Innovation Award from Architectural Products Magazine.

Belmont sits comfortably between the standard Landmark line and CertainTeed's top-tier luxury products, offering a significant aesthetic upgrade at a more accessible price than Grand Manor. Its multi-positioned tabs, rich color blends, and high-contrast shadow lines convincingly replicate the appearance of natural slate. Heavier and thicker than standard architectural shingles, Belmont delivers a more substantial feel and a longer realistic service life of 30–40 years.

Grand Manor is CertainTeed's flagship luxury shingle and the most premium standard asphalt shingle product in the residential market. Weighing approximately 425 lbs per square — more than twice a standard 30-year architectural shingle — its multi-layer laminated construction delivers five layers of total protection when installed over underlayment. Randomly placed tabs with deep, natural shadow lines create an extraordinarily authentic slate appearance that suits estate-style and steeply pitched roofs magnificently. Grand Manor says everything about a home.

Carriage House is one of CertainTeed's most architecturally distinctive offerings — a luxury shingle with patented chamfered (cut-away) corners and wide, dramatic shadow lines that create the appearance of scalloped-edge, hand-crafted natural slate. Its construction uses two full-size base shingles bonded together to create four layers of protection, making it among the heaviest and most durable asphalt shingles available. Best suited for steeply pitched roofs where its unique profile is fully visible.

Presidential Shake is the shingle that established the benchmark for wood shake-inspired asphalt roofing. Its multi-layer construction, dimensional color blending, and unique locking system combine to deliver the authentic look of hand-split cedar shake — without the high cost, maintenance burden, fire risk, or longevity concerns of real wood. It is available in a wide array of colors that beautifully simulate natural wood grain and texture, and is rated for winds up to 110 mph standard.

Presidential Shake TL takes the already-acclaimed Presidential Shake and elevates it with a third laminated layer — creating a shingle of extraordinary visual depth, thickness, and dimensional presence. The TL construction produces deeper shadow lines and a more dramatic, multi-textured roofline that is unmistakably premium. This is the shingle for high-end homes where the roof should be as much a design statement as a functional element.

Your asphalt shingle roof is a complete system — not just a layer of shingles. It works from the inside out, starting with the roof deck (the structural sheathing), followed by a weather-resistant underlayment, ice and water barrier, and finally the shingles themselves. Every component plays a critical role in keeping your home dry, structurally sound, and energy-efficient.
Asphalt shingles are the most widely installed residential roofing material in North America — and for good reason. They offer an exceptional balance of affordability, durability, wind and fire resistance, and visual versatility. Available in hundreds of colors and styles, a new asphalt roof dramatically improves your home's appearance while adding decades of reliable protection.
When professionally installed according to manufacturer specifications and local building codes, a quality asphalt shingle roof is engineered to withstand the full range of weather conditions — from summer heat and UV exposure to winter ice, wind, and heavy snow loads.
Channels rain, snow, and ice away from your roof deck, preventing moisture intrusion into your attic, walls, and living spaces.
Proper ventilation and reflective shingle technology help regulate attic temperatures, reducing HVAC strain and lowering energy costs.
Modern architectural shingles are engineered and rated for winds up to 130 mph and impact from hail and debris.
A new roof is one of the highest-ROI home improvements you can make — enhancing appearance and commanding more at resale.

A properly installed asphalt roof is a multi-layer system. Each component is engineered to work together to provide complete weatherproofing, structural integrity, and long-term performance. Skipping or cutting corners on any layer compromises the entire system.
The structural foundation — typically OSB or plywood — that everything is nailed to. Inspected and repaired or replaced during every professional re-roof to ensure a solid, dry base.
A self-adhering waterproof membrane applied at eaves, valleys, and penetrations — the most vulnerable leak points. Required by code in most northern climates and critical for preventing ice dam damage.
A moisture-resistant barrier installed over the full roof deck beneath the shingles. Modern synthetic underlayment outperforms traditional felt in tear resistance, water repellency, and longevity.
A metal flashing installed along eaves and rakes that directs water off the roof edge cleanly into gutters, protecting fascia boards and preventing water from wicking back under shingles.
Galvanized steel or aluminum flashing seals all roof penetrations — chimneys, skylights, vents, and valleys — where shingles alone cannot create a watertight seal. The most common source of roof leaks when improperly installed.
The visible outer layer — installed in overlapping courses from eave to ridge, terminating with specially formed ridge cap shingles at the peak that seal and protect the roof's highest and most exposed point.
When selecting vinyl siding for your home, one of the most important decisions is choosing between standard vinyl siding and insulated vinyl siding. Both are high-quality, durable options — but they serve different needs and budgets.
3-tab shingles are the traditional flat asphalt shingle, cut with three uniform tabs along the exposed edge. They have been the standard residential roofing material for decades and remain one of the most affordable options available.
Best for: Budget-constrained projects or short-term ownership situations where upfront cost is the primary consideration.
Architectural shingles — also called dimensional or laminate shingles — are constructed from two layers of asphalt bonded together, creating a thicker, heavier shingle with a richly textured, multi-dimensional appearance that mimics wood shake or slate at a fraction of the cost.
Our recommendation: Architectural shingles are the modern industry standard and deliver dramatically better performance, longevity, and aesthetics for a modest additional investment.
A compromised roof doesn't just let in water — it sets off a cascade of damage that reaches deep into your home's structure, insulation, and interior finishes. Addressing roof problems early is always far less expensive than dealing with what follows when they're ignored.
Even minor shingle failures allow moisture into the attic, saturating insulation, reducing its R-value, and creating the perfect environment for mold growth and wood rot in rafters and sheathing.
Prolonged water infiltration deteriorates roof decking, rafters, and ridge boards — turning what could have been a straightforward shingle replacement into a structural repair costing tens of thousands of dollars.
Leaks that reach living spaces damage ceilings, drywall, flooring, and personal property — and can remain hidden inside wall cavities for months before becoming visible.
Persistent attic moisture breeds mold and mildew that spreads through your home's air supply, creating serious health risks for your family — especially children and those with respiratory conditions.
Inadequate ventilation and failing shingles allow ice dams to form at the eaves — forcing ice and meltwater up beneath shingles and into the roof system, causing extensive hidden damage.
Many insurers require proof of a roof in good condition. A deteriorating roof can affect your coverage, raise your premiums, and become a deal-breaker in a home sale inspection.
Roofs rarely fail all at once — they give you signals first. Knowing what to look for can mean the difference between a straightforward replacement and an expensive emergency repair. If you notice any of these warning signs, schedule a professional inspection right away.
Asphalt granules accumulating in your gutters or downspout discharge are a clear sign your shingles are past their service life and no longer effectively blocking UV rays.
Shingles that curl at the edges (curling) or cup upward in the center have lost their flexibility — a sign of age, moisture damage, or poor ventilation beneath the roof deck.
Any area of exposed roof deck is an active leak waiting to happen. Missing shingles after wind events should be addressed immediately before the next rain.
Dark water stains on attic rafters or insulation, or active dripping during rainfall, indicate moisture has breached the roof system and remediation is urgent.
Dark streaking or green moss growth signals sustained moisture retention on the shingle surface — which accelerates granule loss and shingle deterioration over time.
If your 3-tab roof is 20+ years old or your architectural shingle roof is approaching 25–30 years, a professional inspection will assess remaining service life and help you plan ahead.
Any visible light entering the attic through the roof deck signals gaps, cracks, or missing material that allow both water and air infiltration — a condition requiring immediate attention.
Visible sagging or soft spots when walking on the roof indicate structural sheathing failure, likely from prolonged moisture exposure. This is a serious structural concern requiring urgent professional assessment.
Asphalt Shingle FAQs
The lifespan of an asphalt shingle roof depends primarily on the shingle type and installation quality. 3-tab shingles typically last 15–20 years. Architectural (dimensional) shingles generally last 25–30 years, and premium designer shingles may carry lifetime limited warranties. Proper attic ventilation, regular inspections, and quality installation all extend service life significantly.
The answer depends on the age of your roof, the extent of damage, and whether the issues are localized or widespread. If your roof is under 15 years old and damage is limited to a small area, targeted repairs may be the right call. If the roof is approaching or past its expected service life, or if damage is widespread, full replacement is typically the more cost-effective long-term decision. We provide honest assessments — we'll tell you what your roof actually needs, not what generates the largest invoice.
Building codes in many jurisdictions permit a second layer of shingles to be installed over an existing layer — a process called a "re-roof" or "overlay." While this saves the cost of tear-off, we generally recommend a full tear-off so we can inspect the decking for rot or moisture damage, ensure a flat nailing surface, and install new underlayment. An overlay also adds weight and typically shortens the new roof's effective lifespan.
Shingle selection should complement your home's siding color, trim, and architectural style. Darker shingles can make a home feel more grounded and traditional; lighter and blended tones create a more open, contemporary feel. Many manufacturers offer color visualization tools. Our team is happy to help you select a shingle profile and color palette that enhances your home's specific exterior.
Homeowners insurance typically covers sudden or accidental damage — such as wind, hail, or fallen trees — but generally does not cover replacement due to normal aging or wear. After a major storm event, we can help document damage and work alongside your insurance adjuster to support your claim. We'll provide a thorough inspection report detailing all storm-related damage found.
Roof replacement cost varies based on your roof's square footage, pitch and complexity, shingle grade, removal of existing material, and any underlying repairs required.
