How CertainTeed Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

CertainTeed builds good roofing products, but every system has weak points, especially after a decade or two under the West Palm Beach sun. Here’s what we actually find on certainteed roof inspections in West Palm Beach, and what we do about it:

• Landmark shingles and granule loss. The Landmark line is CertainTeed’s bread-and-butter architectural shingle, and it’s on thousands of West Palm Beach homes. After 12 to 15 years, we often see heavy granule loss on south-facing and west-facing slopes. The shingles aren’t necessarily failing, but the loss exposes the asphalt to UV breakdown. We document the percentage of granule loss per slope so you know how much service life is left, not just that it’s “showing some wear.”
• Presidential Shake and wind-lift at the edges. The Presidential Shake is a heavy, premium shingle, but its thickness works against it at the rake edges and ridge lines during tropical weather. We regularly find lifted tabs along the gable ends on West Palm Beach homes after summer storm season. The fix is reinforcing the starter course and re-sealing the lifted runs with a hand-applied adhesive that meets CertainTeed’s specs for the product.
• Flashing failures at penetrations. This isn’t unique to CertainTeed, but it’s the number one cause of leaks in houses with any shingle system. Pipe collars, chimney flashing, and skylight curbs on CertainTeed roofs in West Palm Beach need routine inspection because the sealant fails long before the shingles do. We replace the flashing with matching metal and a high-grade sealant that holds up to Florida’s ultraviolet exposure without drying out in a couple of seasons.
• Flintlastic and membrane seams on flat roofs. West Palm Beach has a lot of low-slope and flat roof sections, and CertainTeed’s Flintlastic self-adhered membrane is common on them. The weak point is the seams, not the membrane itself. In West Palm Beach heat, seams can fail if the original installer didn’t roll them with enough pressure or applied the membrane over a dirty deck. We open a few seams on every flat inspection to check for adhesion and repair any that lift with new membrane strips.
• Starter strips and drip edge issues. CertainTeed’s warranty requires a proper starter course and drip edge at the eaves, but after original construction, those details get compromised by gutter work, fascia repairs, or simple settling. On a certainteed roof inspection, we check the lower edge line from the ground and up close. A missing drip edge or a compromised starter strip means water is already getting under the shingles at the edges, and we fix that before it becomes a decking problem.

Our CertainTeed Roof Inspection Process

1. 1
   You call (728) 203-3066 and speak to a live person. No voicemail, no call center script. We schedule your inspection at a time that works for you.
2. 2
   We walk the roof, not just peek from a ladder. Our tech gets onto the roof surface and physically inspects every slope, penetration, valley, and edge. We check the shingles, flashing, underlayment at exposed points, drip edge, and ventilation.
3. 3
   We photograph everything. Every finding is documented with photos so you’re not taking our word for it. These photos go into your written inspection report.
4. 4
   We identify the exact CertainTeed product and its condition. If you have Landmark shingles, we map remaining service life and note any slope-specific wear. If you have a Flintlastic membrane, we test seam adhesion. You get a clear picture, not a generic “roof is aging” note.
5. 5
   We decide repair or recommend replacement, using the right parts. If it’s repairable, we specify the fix and whether we’ll use OEM CertainTeed materials or a quality substitute that matches the profile and warranty. You get written pricing before any work begins, always.
6. 6
   We deliver a written report and a written price, both the same day. The report shows what we found and our recommendation. The price for repairs, if any, is on paper before we start a single nail. Every job carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise: in writing, for one full year, and we come back for free if it fails.

What CertainTeed Roof Inspection Costs in West Palm Beach

Here’s a realistic range for certainteed roof inspections in West Palm Beach, based on what we typically see:

• Basic visual inspection (single-story, easy access): $195 to $275
• Full inspection with written report and photo documentation (two-story or complex roof): $300 to $425
• Inspection plus minor repair (re-sealing lifted tabs, replacing a pipe collar): Add $85 to $250 depending on the specific fix
• Warranty claim documentation package: Included at no extra charge with any full inspection

What moves the price is roof size and slope. A steep two-story certainteed roof takes longer to walk safely and requires more photographs. A flat Flintlastic roof takes less time but demands more seam testing. You’ll know the exact number before we start, and the estimate is free. Call (728) 203-3066 to schedule.
