How CertainTeed Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

CertainTeed makes a solid shingle. But after 15-plus years in South Florida sun, salt air, and hurricane season, specific patterns show up. Here’s what we see on Fort Lauderdale roofs and what we do about it:

• Landmark shingle granule loss. Landmark is the most common CertainTeed line on Broward County homes, and after a decade of UV exposure, the ceramic granules start washing into gutters. Once the asphalt beneath is exposed, the shingle cooks from the inside out. We replace the compromised shingles and check the surrounding courses so the patch blends into the roof’s existing wear pattern.
• Presidential Shake TL curling at the eaves. The thicker Presidential series looks great but carries real weight. On older Fort Lauderdale homes where attic ventilation was an afterthought, heat buildup underneath causes the shingle tabs to curl right at the drip edge. We fix the ventilation problem first, then replace the curled shingles. Skipping the ventilation fix just means you’ll be calling us again next year.
• Valley failure on steep hips. CertainTeed shingles are cut to fit valleys during installation, and a sloppy valley weave leaks within two or three rainy seasons. In Fort Lauderdale’s daily summer downpours, a leaking valley shows up fast. We remove the valley, lay fresh underlayment to code, and re-cut the shingles with a clean channel that moves water instead of trapping it.
• Flashing separation at walls and chimneys. This isn’t a CertainTeed defect, it’s a South Florida reality. Heat expands metal flashing, storms hammer it, and the sealant eventually lets go. On CertainTeed roofs we match the flashing repair to the shingle profile so the finished work doesn’t look like a patch job.
• Vent boot and pipe collar leaks. The rubber boots around plumbing vents degrade in constant UV and heat. On a CertainTeed roof, a dried-out boot will leak long before the shingle itself fails. We replace boots with UV-rated collars and re-seat the surrounding shingles so the repair is watertight at the penetration.

Our CertainTeed Roof Repair Process

Here’s what a repair call looks like with us, from first phone call to cleanup:

1. 1
   Call and describe what you’re seeing. A live person answers at (754) 354-1224, day or night. We ask about the leak location, when you noticed it, and whether you’ve had prior repairs.
2. 2
   Rooftop assessment with photos. Our technician walks the roof and documents the damage. Before they arrive, you get their name and photo. When they ring the bell, they hand you a photo ID badge at the door.
3. 3
   Parts decision, explained honestly. For CertainTeed roofs we prefer matching OEM shingles when the line is still in production. If the shingle is discontinued, we use a quality aftermarket match and tell you exactly what we’re using and why. No mystery materials.
4. 4
   Written price before any work starts. The repair scope and the price go on paper first. If it’s a $400 flashing fix, the invoice will say $400. No change orders, no surprises after the fact.
5. 5
   Repair and water test. We complete the work and test the repair area with water before we leave. Then we photograph the finished job and walk you through what we did.
6. 6
   Written guarantee. Every repair includes a written 365-day guarantee. If the repair fails within a year, we come back and make it right at no charge.

Why Fort Lauderdale Homeowners Call Mercer Roofing Co Fort Lauderdale for CertainTeed Work

Most roofers can nail a shingle. What’s harder to find is a crew that treats your home the way you do. We send you the technician’s name and photo before they arrive, and they badge in with photo ID at your door. That matters when you’re home alone, when your kids are napping upstairs, or when you’ve had one too many strangers knock on your door without warning. Grant Whitlock has been straight with Fort Lauderdale homeowners for years; he’ll tell you if a repair holds another five years or if the money’s better spent on replacement, and he’ll put those numbers in writing before anyone picks up a nail gun. And if you have GAF or Owens Corning shingles elsewhere on the property, we repair those too. We’re not loyal to a brand, we’re loyal to your roof.
