Van Nuys Roofing Co is a brand-agnostic roofing crew fluent in seven major manufacturers: GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. If it goes on a roof, we know it. We’re not a CertainTeed authorized dealer or sponsored affiliate. We’re independent CertainTeed specialists, which means when we tell you a Landmark roof needs repair or a Presidential roof needs replacement, you’re getting an honest read, not a sales pitch. For a deeper look at how we work with this brand specifically, see our CertainTeed sales & service page.
Why San Antonio Heights Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
Most roofing companies in the Inland Empire push one brand. We don’t have that problem. Our crews install and repair CertainTeed systems alongside six other major manufacturers, so our recommendation is driven by your roof’s actual condition, your fire-rating requirements, and your budget, not by a supplier incentive. When a San Antonio Heights homeowner asks whether CertainTeed is the right product for their home, they get an answer that considers every option on the table.
Rick Dominguez, our owner, learned the trade through the construction technology program at Los Angeles Valley College and spent the better part of two decades on rooftops across the San Fernando Valley before starting this operation. His approach hasn’t changed since: inspect first, recommend second. “If it doesn’t need replacing, I’m not going to tell you it does.” That’s the standard every CertainTeed service call in San Antonio Heights runs on. We’re fully licensed and insured, and we pull permits and pass inspections on every replacement.

Common CertainTeed Roofing Problems We Solve in San Antonio Heights
- Accelerated granule loss on south-facing Landmark shingles. San Antonio Heights gets hammered by inland sun, and south slopes take the worst of it. We routinely see Landmark shingles on these exposures shedding granules years before the rest of the roof. The shingles start looking bald, the asphalt beneath begins to oxidize, and eventually you’re looking at surface cracking and water intrusion. We can replace isolated damaged slopes if the rest of the roof is sound.
- Wind uplift on Presidential shingles at eaves and ridge caps. Santa Ana wind events hit the foothills hard, and Presidential’s heavyweight design doesn’t make it immune to uplift when fastening patterns or adhesive strips were poorly set. We find lifted shingles, broken seal tabs, and occasional full blow-offs along perimeter edges and ridges after strong wind seasons. The repair is straightforward, but it needs to be done before the next wind event turns a small lift into a torn-off section.
- Premature underlayment failure in valley areas. NorthGate and other CertainTeed underlayments can fail early in San Antonio Heights valleys where winter rain and debris collect. Chronic moisture pockets saturate the underlayment, leaks develop at the deck, and by the time you see staining on the ceiling, the decking has often started to rot. We replace failed underlayment with quality aftermarket or OEM products that meet or exceed the original fire-rating requirements.
- Brittle, cracking organic-mat shingles on 1970s and 80s homes. A lot of the original CertainTeed shingles on older San Antonio Heights homes were organic-mat products. After 40-plus years of thermal cycling, they’re brittle. They crack when walked on, they blow off in wind, and most are not Class A fire-rated. Insurance companies are flagging these roofs. In most cases, repair isn’t worth it; a full tear-off and replacement with a modern Class A system is the better call.
- Leak damage around chimneys and skylights. Flashing failures account for a large share of the CertainTeed service calls we run in San Antonio Heights. The mid-century homes here often have original masonry chimneys, and the flashing detail where roof meets chimney is a weak point. Wind-driven rain and ember intrusion both exploit those gaps. We repair or replace flashing, re-seal penetrations, and make sure the detail is correct for a fire-rated assembly.
CertainTeed Service in San Antonio Heights: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Roof
San Antonio Heights sits in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone. That’s a state mapping designation, and it changes the math on every CertainTeed roof decision we make here. Many original wood-shake roofs in this community are reaching end-of-life, and insurers are responding with non-renewal notices. A certain percentage of the CertainTeed work we do in San Antonio Heights starts with a homeowner holding a letter from their carrier saying the roof has to go. The fix is usually a Class A fire-rated CertainTeed shingle system with ember-resistant vents, and that combination is often the only way to keep or renew coverage in the 91784 ZIP. On a 1960s ranch home off Mountain View Avenue, we found original wood shake that had dried to the point of crumbling, with cracks around the chimney flashing that were letting embers and water in. We tore off the old shakes, replaced the damaged decking, and installed a CertainTeed Landmark Class A fire-rated shingle system with new ember-resistant vents and updated flashing. The homeowners kept their insurance. That’s the standard outcome when the product matches the local risk.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in San Antonio Heights
We work on the full CertainTeed residential lineup that shows up on San Antonio Heights roofs: Landmark, Landmark Pro, Presidential, Presidential Shake, NorthGate, and Carveth. That covers architectural shingles, heavyweight designer shingles, and the accessory components like underlayment, ridge caps, and starter strips.
For replacements and repairs, we use CertainTeed OEM shingles and accessories whenever available. For underlayment, flashing, and vents, we’ll also recommend quality aftermarket components when they meet or exceed the original performance and fire-rating specs. We keep common CertainTeed Landmark colors and matching accessories in stock for fast turnaround on Rancho Cucamonga CertainTeed service and San Antonio Heights repairs, which means you’re not waiting two weeks for a bundle of shingles to ship.

AfterCertainTeed Service Pricing in San Antonio Heights
CertainTeed service pricing in San Antonio Heights breaks down roughly like this:
- Isolated shingle or flashing repair: $350 – $800, depending on slope access and the extent of the damage.
- Full CertainTeed Landmark roof replacement: $7.50 – $11.00 per square foot installed on a typical single-story ranch, including tear-off and decking repair as needed.
- Presidential or other heavyweight shingle systems: $9.50 – $13.50 per square foot installed, reflecting the higher material cost and labor.
- Tile underlayment replacement: $4.50 – $7.00 per square foot, depending on existing tile condition and whether tile reset is required.
What drives the price here is decking condition most of all. Homes from the 1950s through 1970s often have 1×6 or plywood decking that’s seen decades of heat cycling and occasional moisture; if it needs replacing, that’s a per-sheet cost we show you in the line-item estimate. Every estimate we write is free, detailed, and shows you exactly where your money goes. Call (866) 321-6172 for exact numbers on your San Antonio Heights roof.

FAQs – CertainTeed Roofing in San Antonio Heights
Yes. CertainTeed Landmark, Landmark Pro, and Presidential lines all carry Class A fire ratings when installed as part of a proper fire-rated assembly. For San Antonio Heights homes in the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, we pair these shingles with ember-resistant vents and appropriate underlayment to meet the specific requirements most insurers are enforcing. Call (866) 321-6172 and we’ll tell you exactly what your policy is likely to require.
It depends on the shingle condition and the roof’s age. If isolated areas have granule loss or wind damage and the shingles still have flexibility and remaining life, we’ll repair those sections honestly. If the shingles are brittle, cracking across multiple slopes, or no longer meet Class A fire-rating standards, a repair is just a temporary patch and a full replacement is the safer investment. We’ll tell you which one actually makes sense after we inspect the roof, not before.
For concrete tile roofs in San Antonio Heights, we typically recommend a high-temperature synthetic underlayment rather than the original felt. The inland heat and thermal cycling here degrade asphalt-saturated felt faster than synthetic products. CertainTeed’s NorthGate line works well, but we also use quality aftermarket synthetics that meet or exceed the fire-rating and performance specs. The key is proper installation at valleys and penetrations, which is where most failures originate.
Santa Ana winds create uplift pressure along eaves, rakes, and ridge caps, and they can break the adhesive seal between shingle courses. CertainTeed shingles have a strong sealant strip, but no shingle is immune to a poorly fastened edge or a wind event that gets under the starter course. After major wind events, we recommend checking for lifted shingles and broken seal tabs before the next rain arrives. Call (866) 321-6172 for a wind-damage inspection.
Yes. Ember-resistant vents are available for both shingle and tile roof systems, and we install them regularly on San Antonio Heights replacements. In a wildfire ember storm, standard vents with large openings are a direct pathway for burning material into your attic. Ember-resistant vents use a fine mesh that blocks ember intrusion while still allowing proper attic ventilation. They’re a standard part of our Class A replacement packages here.
