CertainTeed Roofing in South San Gabriel, CA | Van Nuys Roofing Co
We provide independent CertainTeed roofing service across South San Gabriel, from leak repairs on original mid-century shingles to full tear-offs on stucco homes. The one thing that makes our CertainTeed work different here: we know 91755 runs through LA County Public Works, not Rosemead or Alhambra city hall, so the permit and inspection on your CertainTeed roof actually get pulled through the right agency the first time. Call (866) 321-6172 for a free estimate.
Why South San Gabriel Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
CertainTeed makes a solid shingle, but it behaves differently on a 1960s South San Gabriel rancher than it does on a newer tract home in the valley. We have torn off and repaired enough CertainTeed fields across the San Gabriel Valley to know how Landmark architectural shingles hold up to Santa Ana wind lift and how XT 25 three-tabs bake on a south-facing slope. Rick Dominguez, our owner, spent two decades on rooftops across the San Fernando Valley before starting Van Nuys Roofing Co, and he still walks every South San Gabriel roof himself before we quote anything. We inspect first, recommend second. If a CertainTeed field has years left in it, we patch and match. If it is done, we say so plainly.
We are an independent contractor. We are not authorized, sponsored, or warranted by CertainTeed. Our workmanship and our warranty stand on their own, and that keeps our advice straight.

Common CertainTeed Roofing Problems We Solve in South San Gabriel
Here is what we actually see when we get up on CertainTeed roofs in South San Gabriel:
- Landmark seal-strip failure after Santa Ana wind. The seal strips on Landmark architectural shingles can let go after repeated Santa Ana wind lift along the shallow-pitch roofs common in South San Gabriel. Tabs crease, unsealed edges catch more wind, and by the time the first winter rain arrives, water has a path in.
- XT 25 granule loss and cracking on south slopes. On second-generation tear-offs, the south-facing slopes on XT 25 three-tab shingles get hammered by San Gabriel Valley summer heat. The mat dries out, tabs curl, and granules end up in the gutters. That is not a sealant fix; that is a field replacement.
- Sidewall and vent boot flashing that pulled dry. CertainTeed shingle-to-flashing transitions at sidewalls and vent boots dry out and pull during the long dry season. South San Gabriel homeowners usually discover the leak in December, but the gap opened months earlier.
- Brittle 1980s – 90s CertainTeed underlayment. Original CertainTeed underlayment from the 1980s and 1990s has embrittled under the shingle on many South San Gabriel homes. A spot repair on a 30-year-old field cannot be matched cleanly without opening the deck, and we will tell you that before we cut anything.
- Tree damage on tight lots. Mature trees hang over many South San Gabriel roofs, and their branches scrape shingles and drop debris into valleys. That organic buildup traps moisture against CertainTeed shingle edges and accelerates granule loss.
CertainTeed Service in South San Gabriel: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Roof
South San Gabriel is an unincorporated pocket of the San Gabriel Valley tucked between Rosemead, Monterey Park, and Alhambra. That matters for every CertainTeed tear-off and re-roof we do in 91755: the permit and inspection run through Los Angeles County Public Works, not any neighboring city hall. A contractor who habitually pulls permits in CertainTeed in Montebello or Alhambra will file the wrong paperwork for your South San Gabriel address, and the county will not recognize that city inspection. On a mid-century stucco home near the hillside edge of South San Gabriel, our crew tore off a second-generation CertainTeed XT 25 field where the south slope had lost granules and the tabs had curled, and found the original underlayment brittle and torn at the sidewall. We replaced the dried flashing and vent boots, matched the pitch with a Landmark architectural shingle, and pulled the County Public Works permit through unincorporated LA County before the first winter rain hit. That sequence is normal here. It is not normal in Rosemead.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in South San Gabriel
We work across the CertainTeed product lines that show up on South San Gabriel roofs: Landmark architectural asphalt shingles, XT 25 and XT 30 three-tabs, Presidential Shake and Presidential Solaris, and NorthGate and Presidio metal shingle and standing seam. For partial repairs, we match CertainTeed shingles to the existing line and color where the field is salvageable, and we use quality aftermarket flashing, vent boots, and underlayment where the brand part adds no value. If the CertainTeed field is past half its slope area or the underlayment is brittle, we quote a full replacement rather than selling a patch that fails in a season. Rick puts it this way: “If it doesn’t need replacing, I’m not going to tell you it does.”
Beyond CertainTeed, our crew also works with CertainTeed sales & service across GAF, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. Seven leading brands, one crew that knows them all. Your roof, your material choice.

FAQs – CertainTeed Roofing in South San Gabriel
Yes, and it is a County permit, not a city one. South San Gabriel is unincorporated Los Angeles County, so a CertainTeed tear-off and re-roof in 91755 is permitted and inspected through LA County Public Works. We handle that paperwork end to end. Call (866) 321-6172 and we will confirm what your specific roof requires.
Sometimes, but not always. If the seal strip simply released and the tab is not creased or cracked, a careful hand-seal can buy a few more seasons. If the tabs are creased from repeated wind lift, resealing will not hold. We will tell you which situation you have after we walk the roof. Call
Yes, when the field is salvageable and the shingle line is still in production. We match CertainTeed shingles to the existing line and color, and we will show you the match before we install. If the field is too far gone or the underlayment is brittle, we will tell you a patch is a waste of money. Call
Because the leak opened during the dry months. South San Gabriel’s Santa Ana wind and valley heat dry out CertainTeed flashing transitions and vent boots during summer, and those gaps stay hidden until the first concentrated winter rain. The stain in December is the symptom of a gap that opened in August. We find those during our dry-season inspections. Call
No. We are an independent contractor that installs and repairs CertainTeed roofing across South San Gabriel, but we are not authorized, sponsored, or warranted by CertainTeed. Our workmanship and our warranty stand on their own. If you want a roofer who pushes a CertainTeed certification instead of honest roof advice, we are not that crew.
