This page is for Fort Lauderdale homeowners with CertainTeed shingles, tiles, or membrane systems who need straight answers about repair costs, failure patterns, and whether their roof can make it through the next hurricane season. Call (754) 354-1224 to talk through what you’re seeing.

How CertainTeed Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

CertainTeed makes solid roofing products, but South Florida treats every brand differently. Here’s what we actually see on Fort Lauderdale roofs, product line by product line:

• Landmark Pro shingles: granule loss and early age-spotting on east-facing slopes. Landmark Pro is a heavier architectural shingle, but constant salt air and UV pulverize the surface granules faster here than in drier climates. You’ll see bald patches and dark streaking within 8 – 12 years, not the 15 – 18 CertainTeed’s testing suggests. We stabilize by resealing lifted tabs and replacing the affected courses with a color-matched line – not the whole roof.
• Presidential Shake TL: interlocking tabs that crack at the nail line after wind uplift. These luxury shingles look great but hold water at the seam if the locking edge loosens. After a few years of Fort Lauderdale microbursts and summer storms, water wicks under the tabs and rots the decking beneath. Our fix is deliberate: pull the damaged shake, inspect the underlayment and decking for soft spots, replace what’s compromised, and sit the new piece so the lock actually locks.
• HighLand Slate and other composite slate lines: sub-flashing failures at valleys and dormers. The slate pieces themselves almost never fail. When we get a leak call on a HighLand roof, it’s the valley metal or step flashing underneath that failed years before the product did. Florida insurance claims spike after storms, and homeowners discover the flashing was installed wrong from day one. We replace the valley entirely – not just a patch – because a patched valley in Fort Lauderdale will be leaking again by next season.
• Flintlastic SA self-adhered roll roofing: seam creep in high heat on flat and low-slope sections. On certain flat roof sections and porches, Flintlastic adhesive softens in sustained August heat and the side laps start to shift – we call it seam creep. Water pools at the seam, finds a pinhole, and you’ve got a stain on the living room ceiling. We strip back the seam, reprime it, and lay a proper overlap with a water-blocking mastic. Then we walk the entire membrane to catch the other laps doing the same thing.
• CertainTeed tile systems (Garland tiles and concrete blends): underlayment rot beneath intact tiles. Homeowners see one cracked tile and assume that’s the leak. Most of the time on Fort Lauderdale homes from the 1990s and early 2000s, the tile is fine and the felt underneath has rotted into dust. You can’t see it from the ground. We remove tiles in sections, replace the underlayment with modern synthetic, and reset the same tiles if they’re still sound – saving you thousands versus a full replacement.

One more thing we see often: homeowners with CertainTeed architectural shingles who were told by another company they need a whole new roof because of “nail pops” or “minor blistering.” About half the time, they don’t. Grant Whitlock has walked too many Fort Lauderdale roofs to recommend a job that isn’t needed. We’ll tell you straight what’s causing the issue and what a real fix costs.

Our CertainTeed Roofing Company Process

Every CertainTeed job follows the same path, and you’ll know where you are at each step:

1. 1
   You call, a person answers. Not a voicemail. Not a callback form. We talk through what you’re seeing – leak, missing shingle, ceiling stain – and schedule a visit that fits your day.
2. 2
   We arrive with credentials. Before the technician shows up, you get their name and photo. At your door, they present a photo ID badge and wear a clean, marked uniform. No surprises, no unmarked trucks.
3. 3
   Diagnostic inspection. We get on the roof and trace the actual failure – not just the symptom. For CertainTeed roofs, that means checking seams, flashing, underlayment, decking rot, and granule condition. You get a plain-English explanation of what we found.
4. 4
   Written price before work starts. Always. The quote covers parts, labor, and what happens if we find hidden damage once we open things up. You sign nothing until you’ve read it.
5. 5
   The repair or replacement. We use manufacturer-recognized CertainTeed-compatible materials where the warranty still matters, and quality aftermarket equivalents where it makes sense. We’ll explain which is which and why.
6. 6
   Testing, cleanup, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise. We water-test the repair, walk the surrounding area for secondary issues, and leave your property cleaner than we found it. If anything isn’t right within a year, we come back and make it right – no charge.

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

Most roofing companies can repair a CertainTeed shingle. What they can’t do is tell you who’s showing up at your door. We can. Every Mercer technician is background-checked, identity-verified, and held to the Threshold Verified standard – they arrive in a clean uniform with a photo ID badge, and you’ll have their name and photo before they ring the bell. That’s not a marketing line; it’s how we’ve operated since we started doing roofing work in this area, and it’s why parents with young kids and older homeowners choose us even when someone else quotes a lower number.

We work on CertainTeed products every week, alongside GAF and Owens Corning systems when a multi-brand roof needs attention. Our written guarantee covers every repair for 365 days, and if a repair fails within that window, the second visit is free.
