This page is for homeowners in Orange County who have CertainTeed shingles, tiles, or flat-roof membranes and want a repair that actually holds. Some call us because a warranty claim got confusing. Most call because water is getting in. Either way, we start with the roof itself, not a sales pitch.

How CertainTeed Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

CertainTeed makes a solid product. But every roof in Orange County eventually meets the same three forces: marine air, hard sun, and gravity. Here are the failure patterns we see most on CertainTeed roofs across Orange County, and what we do about each one.

• Landmark shingle granule loss near roof valleys. CertainTeed’s Landmark line is the workhorse on a lot of south Orange County homes, from Mission Viejo to Laguna Niguel. After ten-plus years, the granules along valley channels start to wash away, leaving bare asphalt that cooks in the heat and then cracks. We replace the valley flashing and shingle over the affected course before water finds the underlayment.
• Presidential Shake tab cupping and wind lift. The Presidential Shake looks great, but its thick tabs catch wind differently than standard shingles. In hilltop areas like Coto de Caza and Aliso Viejo, we see tabs cupping upward along the rake edge, which pulls the sealant loose. Our fix is a reseal plus new fasteners on lifted tabs, not a full reroof.
• Northgate and Grand Manor flashing leaks at sidewalls. CertainTeed’s heavier architectural lines, particularly Northgate and Grand Manor, have a pronounced profile that makes step flashing harder to seat than on flat shingles. When water gets behind the flashing near a sidewall or chimney, the shingle is rarely the problem, it’s the metal-to-shingle transition. We cut back the affected course, reset the flashing, and reinstall with the correct overlap.
• Flintlastic SA membrane delamination on flat sections. On low-slope additions over garages and patios, we see a lot of Flintlastic SA self-adhered membrane. In Orange County’s heat, the lap seams can lose their bond and open up. The telltale sign is a slow drip after the first rain, not a visible hole. We probe the laps, find the failed section, and re-adhere or patch with a compatible SBS modified product.
• Cedar Impressions and shake-look profiles holding moisture against the deck. Decorative shakes and scallops trap debris more than flat shingles. In tree-covered neighborhoods like Orange and Villa Park, leaves sit on the roof surface, hold water, and eventually rot the decking underneath. We clear, inspect the deck for soft spots, and replace any damaged plywood before reinstalling the shingles.

Our CertainTeed Roofing Company Process

Every job follows the same sequence, whether it’s a small repair or a full replacement. We don’t hand a crew a work order and leave them to figure it out. Greg Holloway walks the roof himself before any quote, and the price you see is the price we honor.

1. 1
   Inspection and documentation. We inspect the entire roof surface, not just the spot where water showed up inside. Photos of every problem area get attached to your file so you see what we see.
2. 2
   Written price before any work starts. No verbal ranges, no “we’ll see how it goes.” You get a line-item number in writing that covers materials, labor, and disposal.
3. 3
   Parts decision made with you. For CertainTeed shingle repairs, we use OEM CertainTeed components where the color and warranty matter most, especially on visible slope sections. On less visible areas, we offer quality aftermarket options that hold up just as well at a lower price. You choose, with our recommendation on paper.
4. 4
   The repair or replacement. Our techs work roof section by section, keeping the work area clean as they go. Drip edge, underlayment, flashing, and decking all get checked while the surface is open.
5. 5
   Water test and cleanup. We run water on the repaired area before we leave, and we walk the property line with a magnet sweep for old nails. The place looks better than it did when we arrived.
6. 6
   Written guarantee handed to you before we drive away. Not mailed later. You get a written guarantee on every repair, and if it fails inside the guarantee period, we come back at no charge under the 365-Day Done Right Promise.

What CertainTeed Roofing Company Costs in Orange County

Most CertainTeed shingle repairs in Orange County run between $450 and $1,200 depending on what’s actually failing. A flashing reset at a chimney or sidewall typically runs $600 to $950. Replacing a section of damaged decking under CertainTeed shingles adds roughly $150 to $300 per sheet. Asphalt shingle roof replacements on an average Orange County single-story home generally start around $14,000 and go up from there based on square footage, pitch, and which CertainTeed line you select.

What moves the price: roof pitch, number of penetrations like skylights or vents, decking condition under the shingles, and whether your CertainTeed product is still in production or has been discontinued. Discontinued colors cost more to match, not because of us, but because supply is limited. Call (559) 295-5445 and we’ll give you a written number after a site walk. Free estimate, no obligation.

Why Orange County Homeowners Call Tilehurst Roofing Orange County for CertainTeed Work

Most of our CertainTeed customers in Orange County have been let down before. A contractor no-showed. A price changed at the door. A repair failed within a month. We’re part of the Kingswell family of roofing companies, founded in 2000, and we run on a system called The Kingswell Way: say the price before the work, show up in the window we gave, leave the place cleaner than we found it, put the guarantee in writing, and come back if it fails.

Our techs are background-checked and uniformed, so you always know who is on your roof. And if CertainTeed isn’t the right product for your repair, we stock and work with materials from GAF, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. We’re not married to one brand, and that means the material fits your home, not what happens to be on the truck.
