How CertainTeed Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

CertainTeed makes good roofing materials. But no shingle survives Fort Lauderdale’s heat, humidity, and hurricane season without some wear. Here’s what we actually see on CertainTeed roofs in this area, and what we do about it.

• Landmark series granule loss on south-facing slopes. The Landmark architectural line is the most common CertainTeed shingle we install in Broward County. On roofs with direct southern exposure, the asphalt layer bakes under Fort Lauderdale’s UV load, and granules start sloughing off years before the shingle itself fails. You’ll see grit in your gutters and patchy, lighter spots on the shingle face. We replace the affected slopes with new Landmark shingles matched to the existing color, and check the underlayment while we’re up there.
• Presidential Shake uplift at the rake edges. CertainTeed’s Presidential Shake is a heavy, premium shingle, but its thickness makes it catch wind differently than standard architectural shingles. Along the gable ends, we regularly find tabs lifted or cracked after storm season. The fix is pulling the damaged pieces, re-nailing in the correct pattern per CertainTeed’s install spec, and often adding a bead of roof cement where the manufacturer allows it.
• Flashing failures around Fort Lauderdale chimneys and vents. This one isn’t unique to CertainTeed, but it’s the leading cause of leaks we trace on CertainTeed roofs. Flashing, which is the metal strips that seal joints around chimneys, skylights, and vent pipes, corrodes faster in salt air. When flashing fails, water gets under even perfectly good shingles. We remove the old flashing, install new corrosion-resistant metal, and re-seat the surrounding CertainTeed shingles so the whole assembly drains properly.
• Starter strip and hip-and-ridge cap separation. CertainTeed roofs are only as good as the accessories under them. We see homes where the starter strip along the eaves was nailed too high or with the wrong fastener, and after a few years, the bottom row of shingles begins to peel. Same story with hip and ridge caps that weren’t set with enough exposure. We strip those areas back and reinstall using CertainTeed’s recommended accessories and nailing pattern.
• Ventilation-related warping on Landmark Pro and NorthGate installations. Fort Lauderdale attics run hot. When a CertainTeed roof is installed over inadequate intake ventilation, heat builds up and can warp shingles from beneath, especially on west-facing planes. We don’t just replace the warped shingles; we inspect the attic ventilation and, if needed, add soffit vents or a ridge vent so the new installation doesn’t bake the same way the old one did.

Our CertainTeed Roof Installation Process

Here’s how a full CertainTeed installation goes with us, from the first call to the final walkthrough.

1. 1
   Call and schedule. You call (754) 354-8628. A live person answers, takes your address and basic roof info, and books your estimate. You’ll get a trackable arrival time before our tech heads your way.
2. 2
   On-site inspection and written price. We walk the roof, check the decking, flashing, underlayment, and ventilation, and document everything. Then we give you a written line-item price. That number is what you pay, no surprises at the door.
3. 3
   Material selection and parts decision. We’ll go over CertainTeed lines that fit your home and budget, from Landmark to Landmark Pro to NorthGate if you want a cold-climate-rated shingle that still handles South Florida heat well. We use OEM CertainTeed accessories where warranty and performance depend on them, and we’ll tell you plainly when a quality aftermarket part is just as good and costs less.
4. 4
   Installation day. Our crew arrives on time, in uniform, and backgrounds-checked. We tear off the old roof, inspect and replace damaged decking, install underlayment, then the CertainTeed shingles and accessories per the manufacturer’s current install spec.
5. 5
   Photo documentation and cleanup. You get before-and-after photos, so you can see exactly what was done. We run a magnetic sweep for nails and haul everything away.
6. 6
   Final walkthrough and written guarantee. Dylan Pace or your lead tech walks the roof with you or reviews photos, and you receive your written warranty and our 365-Day Done Right Promise in hand. Digital invoice sent by text before we leave.

What CertainTeed Roof Installation Costs in Fort Lauderdale

Every roof is different, but here are honest ranges for common CertainTeed scenarios in Fort Lauderdale.

• Full CertainTeed Landmark re-roof on a 1,500 sq ft ranch: $9,500 to $13,000
• Full CertainTeed Landmark Pro re-roof on a 2,000 to 2,500 sq ft two-story: $14,000 to $18,000
• CertainTeed Presidential Shake installation on a premium home: $18,000 to $30,000 plus, depending on roof complexity
