CertainTeed Roofing Portland Oregon

It’s no secret that changing or installing a roof is a big project for any house. As such, it involves decisions that will impact not only the homeowner’s budget but also the curb appeal of the residence and the safety and security of the whole family. That is why it becomes so important to make the right decisions when the time comes to install a new roof.

Why select CertainTeed shingles?

When you select a CertainTeed roofing product, you can feel confident that you are making the right choice for your roof. With Presidential Shake and Landmark Premium asphalt shingles and Matterhorn Metal profiles, CertainTeed shingles give you the option of having your roof looking spectacular. You can go for a rustic design, or fall in love with the texture of natural wood, always being confident that you are getting the highest quality roofing materials that will not only enhance the look of your home but are also a great long-term investment in your peace of mind and that of your family.

CertainTeed roofing products include:

  • A large selection of asphalt shingle products
  • The most luxurious roofing shingle lines
  • Mid-grade dimensional or architectural shingles
  • Basic 3-tab or strip shingles

Why CertainTeed?

  • Because it is a heavyweight brand
  • Because its shingles contain most asphalt than most
  • Because they weigh more per square
  • Because more weight is equivalent to greater durability

And did you know that CertainTeed makes products for every layer?

When your roof has products that are designed to work well together, you can be sure that your roof will not have any issues that will require future fixes. And you can also be confident that products that work well together will also result in a roof that will be water-tight, safe and long-lasting. A great investment all around.

Underlayment

Starting with the underlayment, CertainTeed offers two options:

  • WinterGuard – A waterproof barrier that is generally installed in places where extra protection is needed due to possible large amounts of water flowing. These are the areas where ice dams are most likely to be created during winter months.
  • DiamondDeck – A water-resistant synthetic barrier. Your CertainTeed installer will be able to determine which underlayment your roof will need or if a combination of both options will offer your home the best protection from severe weather.

Starter shingles

The eaves get an extra layer of protection to avoid damage from wind-driven rain or ice when these flat shingles are installed along the eaves.

Ridge and hip shingles

The job of these specialty shingles is to cover both vents and non-vented roof ridges and hips. By offering several lines of hip and ridge shingles, CertainTeed offers you the ability to have them match the shingles that you have chosen for the rest of your roof.

Ridge vents

When gaps are left at the peaks of the roof deck, when you are looking to give heat and moisture a way out from the attic, when you aim to get essential roof durability, CertainTeed’s ridge vents are there to do the job.

Shingles

Your choice of CertainTeed shingles will make all the difference in the way your home looks, you may almost feel you moved to a new house.
