This page is for Orlando homeowners who’ve already decided on CertainTeed or are leaning that way and want to know what the install actually looks like: which lines hold up to Florida sun, what fails, what it costs, and how we keep the job from becoming a story you tell your neighbors for the wrong reasons. Call (448) 218-0800 and you’ll get a live person, not a voicemail maze.

How CertainTeed Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

CertainTeed makes a solid shingle. But Orlando’s climate has a way of finding the weak seam in anything. Here’s what we see most often on CertainTeed roofs in Central Florida, and what we do about it when we’re tearing off and reinstalling.

• Landmark series granule loss after storms. The CertainTeed Landmark architectural line is the most common shingle we pull off Orlando homes. After a decade of afternoon thunderstorms and UV, the granule layer starts to shed into the gutters. That’s not a manufacturing defect, it’s abrasion and heat cycling working together. On install, we check the decking for rot where granules have collected and held moisture, then lay a full new system with proper underlayment so the next roof doesn’t inherit the old one’s problems.
• Presidential Shake TL curling at the eaves. The CertainTeed Presidential Shake TL is a heavy, luxury shingle that looks great on larger Orlando homes. The failure we see is curling at the eave line, almost always from attic heat and inadequate intake ventilation rather than the shingle itself. We correct that at install by balancing the ventilation system, which most original builds in neighborhoods like College Park and Baldwin Park simply never had.
• XT 25 three-tab brittleness with age. The CertainTeed XT 25 is a builder-grade three-tab that Orlando tract home builders used heavily in the 2000s. When we tear those off, they’re often so brittle they snap instead of bending, usually around year 15 to 18. We handle it as a standard full replacement with an upgraded architectural shingle, typically Landmark or Landmark Pro, which gives you a heavier and more wind-resistant roof than the original.
• Flashing failures at chimneys and wall intersections. This isn’t unique to CertainTeed, but it’s the most common reason an otherwise decent CertainTeed roof starts leaking. Flashing, the metal strips that seal joints around chimneys and vents, gets torn or lifted by Orlando’s storm winds. We inspect every flashing point during install and replace anything questionable with new metal, not just caulk over it. A flashing detail skipped in April shows up as a ceiling stain in August.
• Underlayment breakdown beneath otherwise fine shingles. We’ve torn off CertainTeed roofs where the shingles looked passable but the felt beneath was paper-thin and crumbling. In Orlando’s humidity, trapped moisture destroys underlayment from below. On every CertainTeed install we use a synthetic underlayment with a higher perm rating, which means the roof can breathe out moisture instead of trapping it against the decking.

Our CertainTeed Roof Installation Process

Here’s exactly how a CertainTeed roof installation goes when you book with Crestview Roofing Co Orlando. No mystery, no disappearing crew, no surprises.

1. 1
   On-site inspection and measurements. We walk the roof, measure every plane, check decking condition, and document what’s there now with photos. You get those photos before we ever ask for a dime.
2. 2
   Written line-item estimate. You receive a fixed price with every cost broken out: tear-off, dump fees, underlayment, shingles, flashing, ventilation, and labor. The number on that page is the number on the invoice, period.
3. 3
   Materials order and scheduling. We order your CertainTeed shingles and all accessories. We also confirm a live arrival time you can track, so you know when the crew is pulling up. No four-hour windows.
4. 4
   Tear-off and decking inspection. The old roof comes off. We inspect the bare decking and replace any rotted or water-damaged sections before anything new goes down. That’s when we find the problems the old roof was hiding.
5. 5
   Installation and flashing work. New underlayment, new flashing at every penetration and joint, new shingles, new ridge caps, and ventilation balancing done right. We’re particular about this part because Florida’s storms will test it within weeks.
6. 6
   Before-and-after photos and final walkthrough. You’ll get photo documentation of the full job, a digital invoice by text, and our written 365-Day Done Right Promise covering the work. If anything’s not done right, we make it right within a year, free of charge.

Why Orlando Homeowners Call Crestview Roofing Co Orlando for CertainTeed Work

We know CertainTeed, but we’re not married to it. We also work with GAF and Owens Corning, so if a CertainTeed line isn’t the right fit for your roof after we inspect it, we’ll tell you straight instead of pushing the brand on the truck. That independence matters, because we work for you, not for a manufacturer. As an independent CertainTeed service provider, we’re not bound by a corporate install script. We’re bound by what works on your house.

Every job we do in Orlando carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise: if something we installed fails within a year, we fix it at no charge. Every job gets a written price before work starts, photo documentation before and after, a live trackable arrival time, and a digital invoice sent by text. Dylan Pace has been running crews in Central Florida long enough to know that Orlando’s afternoon thunderstorms are no joke, and he built Crestview on one simple rule: every estimate is itemized, every timeline is in writing, and no one gets a surprise bill. If it’s not in writing, it’s not a promise – it’s just weather talk.
