Why North Tustin Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
We’ve worked on enough CertainTeed in Tustin roofs to know exactly where they fail: ridge caps lifting under Santa Ana gusts, granules washing off south-facing slopes after fifteen inland summers, and underlayment rotting quietly beneath tile on Lemon Heights homes until a leak finally shows up on the ceiling. Nobody needs a roofer who only knows one brand’s catalog. We install and repair products from seven manufacturers (GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral), so when you need Landmark shingles matched or Presidential Shake replaced, we’re pulling from genuine material knowledge, not a sales script.
Rick Dunnigan grew up in Buena Park, spent weekends helping his uncle patch ranch homes along Orangethorpe Avenue, and learned the trade through the building construction program at Fullerton College before spending two-plus decades on Orange County roofs. That background means we approach every North Tustin job the same way: repair when possible, replace when necessary. If your CertainTeed roof has a seal-strip failure on one slope, we’ll tell you that. If the whole assembly is cooked, you’ll hear that too, with the reasoning laid out plainly.

Common CertainTeed Roofing Problems We Solve in North Tustin
CertainTeed makes solid products. North Tustin’s particular combination of heat, wind, and wildland-urban interface stress tests them in ways a tract home in Anaheim never will.
- Granule loss and seal-strip failure on Landmark architectural shingles. The inland heat bakes shingles through summer, then Santa Ana winds hit in fall. On exposed ridge and hip runs, we see tabs lifting where the seal strip gave out. This is the most common CertainTeed failure we repair in North Tustin, and it’s usually fixable before it becomes a leak.
- Brittle, curling tabs on Presidential Shake profiles. Ranch homes built in the 1960s through 1980s often carry these heavier shingles, and after decades of heat cycling, the valleys and eaves curl first. Once they’re brittle, a repair patch looks wrong and won’t hold under wind. We’ll give you an honest read on whether replacement is the better call.
- Flintlastic SA membrane seams pulling at flat-to-pitch transitions. North Tustin custom homes have complex rooflines with flat sections that drain onto pitched slopes. Those transitions are where low-slope membrane seams, flashing, and ponding water collide. We re-terminate these properly so the Santa Ana-driven rain stops tracking into ceilings.
- Failed tile underlayment beneath clay and concrete tile. This is the hidden one. The underlayment under your tile is often 20 to 40 years old, and it fails before the tile shows any sign of trouble. On canyon-edge homes in Cowan Heights, we regularly find rotted underlayment and decking under tile that looked fine from the ground.
- Ember-intrusive original wood shake roofs. The distinctive North Tustin problem. Original shake from the 1960s and 1970s is brittle, dry, and fails ember-resistance testing. Fire Department brush inspections flag these roofs before insurance renewals, which is why so many homeowners here call us for a CertainTeed Class A conversion.
CertainTeed Service in North Tustin: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the thing about North Tustin that changes how CertainTeed roofing work plays out: the homes along the canyon edges of Cowan Heights and Lemon Heights sit in the wildland-urban interface, and original wood shake roofs there are now brittle enough to fail ember-resistance tests. The Fire Department’s brush inspection catches it, the insurance renewal letter follows, and suddenly the homeowner has a deadline to swap to a Class A assembly. This pressure is specific to North Tustin’s Eucalyptus-lined hills and canyon edges. A roofer in Irvine doesn’t see it. A roofer in CertainTeed in Villa Park doesn’t see it. We do, because we’ve pulled brittle shake off Lemon Heights homes that had already been flagged by inspectors, and we know exactly what the certain CertainTeed products (Landmark Class A shingles, tile underlayment assemblies, ember-resistant edge detailing) need to do to get that renewal signed. When we replace a shake roof here, we’re not just installing shingles. We’re installing the thing that satisfies a fire inspector and an insurance underwriter, and we treat it with that level of care.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in North Tustin
We service the full CertainTeed residential lineup that shows up on North Tustin homes: Landmark architectural shingles (including Landmark Pro and Landmark Solaris), Presidential Shake and Presidential Tumbleweed heavyweight profiles, CertainTeed clay and concrete tile underlayment systems (like DiamondDeck and roof deck protection membranes), and Flintlastic SA self-adhered low-slope membranes for flat sections. For repairs, we match CertainTeed OEM shingles, membranes, and accessories (ridge vent, starter, hip-and-ridge) so the assembly and warranty documentation stay intact. Where aftermarket flashing and boots outperform OEM equivalents, we use those instead and tell you why.

FAQs – CertainTeed Roofing in North Tustin
The CertainTeed material warranty stays with the materials, not the installer. But we’re an independent provider, not a CertainTeed-authorized installer, so any workmanship or enhanced warranty the manufacturer offers through authorized channels doesn’t apply through us. We’re straight about that, and our own workmanship warranty covers the labor we perform. Call (866) 282-5070 if you want to walk through your specific warranty paperwork.
Yes, in nearly every case. Landmark architectural shingles are Class A fire-rated, which is what most North Tustin insurance renewals require after a brush inspection flags original shake. We’ve handled this exact scenario on Lemon Heights and Cowan Heights homes. Your insurer may have specific underlayment or edge-detailing requirements, so have the letter from them ready when you call (866) 282-5070 and we’ll quote the job to match.
Because North Tustin’s inland heat bakes the asphalt while Santa Ana winds hammer the exposed ridge and hip lines. Granules shed as the shingle surface degrades, and seal strips fail on south-facing slopes first. It’s a product-environment interaction, not a manufacturing defect. We see it consistently on older Landmark installations here, and the fix is usually replacing the affected sections before water gets under the tabs.
If the tile itself is sound, yes. We remove the tile, strip the old underlayment, replace rotted decking, install new CertainTeed underlayment (like DiamondDeck), and relay the original tile. It’s a common job on North Tustin ranch homes. You save thousands compared to full tile replacement. Call (866) 282-5070 for a free estimate.
It changes the edges, the underlayment, and the accessories. Ember-resistant work means upgraded valley flashing, sealed edge metal, ember-rated ridge vents, and underlayment that won’t ignite when an ember lands. On Cowan Heights homes we also focus on the low-slope transitions, where embers settle and wind-driven rain pushes in. It’s not a different CertainTeed product. It’s a different installation standard, and it’s the difference between passing an inspection and getting a renewal letter flagged again.
