CertainTeed Roofing in Pomona, CA | Barnwood Roofing
We provide independent CertainTeed roofing service across Pomona, and the work our crews do here is shaped by one fact: Pomona roofs age differently than roofs fifteen minutes away. The combination of intense Inland Empire UV, Santa Ana wind events, and a housing stock that runs from century-old Spanish Colonials to mid-century tract homes means CertainTeed products fail in patterns we’ve learned to read over years of tearing down and rebuilding these exact systems. Call (855) 382-1073 for a straight answer about your roof.
Why Pomona Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
We know CertainTeed’s product lines the way a mechanic knows a specific engine family. Landmark architectural shingles, Symphony tile, Presidential Solar Reflective, NorthGate Sagebrush – we’ve installed, repaired, and replaced all of them on Pomona roofs, from the Craftsman bungalows near downtown to tract homes off the 71. We’re independent, not authorized by CertainTeed, which matters more than it sounds like it should. An authorized dealer pushes what they stock. We stock knowledge of seven manufacturers, so when we tell you your Landmark shingles are worth repairing, it’s because repairing them is the right call, not because we need to move inventory. Ruben Calloway runs our operation, and he learned roofs through the construction technology program at Chaffey College before spending years on Inland Empire job sites. His position on your roof is simple: “Tell me what the roof actually needs – then we’ll talk about what it costs.” If a repair will hold, we’ll tell you. If replacement is the only sensible call, we’ll explain exactly why, in writing, with photos.
We also offer roof inspection as a standalone service. You can hire us to assess your CertainTeed roof without any obligation to book repair or replacement through us. That’s the inspection first, recommendation second approach we’ve built the company on. See our broader CertainTeed sales & service page for more on how we work with the full product line.

Common CertainTeed Roofing Problems We Solve in Pomona
CertainTeed makes solid products. Pomona’s climate and housing stock stress them in specific, predictable ways. Here’s what we see most often:
- Landmark granule loss on south-facing slopes. Mid-century tract homes throughout Pomona often have Landmark architectural shingles that take direct afternoon sun. After 10 to 12 years of that UV load, the granules start washing into the gutters and the fiberglass mat shows through. Once the mat is exposed, the shingles bake and crack. We can repair isolated sections if the decking is still sound, but widespread granule loss on 15-year-old shingles means replacement is the only honest option.
- Presidential Solar Reflective seal strip failure in Santa Ana winds. These shingles are efficient, but their seal strips can let go when a strong Santa Ana event hits a south- or east-facing roof plane. The tabs lift, rain gets driven underneath, and you get slow leaks that rot decking before anyone notices. We re-seal or replace individual tabs when the shingle body is still good.
- Symphony tile cracking on skip-sheathing. Spanish Colonial bungalows around downtown Pomona often have original clay tile over skip-sheathing with minimal fasteners. Heat waves bake the tile, winter rain swells the decking, and tiles crack or slip. Matching the original CertainTeed Symphony profile and color requires pulling brittle tile carefully – too many roofers crack more than they save. We’ve done it enough to know which tile will lift clean and which will crumble on contact.
- NorthGate Sagebrush fastener back-out. NorthGate shingles are rated for steep slopes, but on older Pomona decking that was never re-nailed, the fasteners can back out over time. The shingles loosen, wind gets under them, and they tear free. The fix is re-fastening to the manufacturer’s pattern, not adding more nails in random spots.
- Flashing failures around chimneys and skylights. Pomona’s old homes have old flashing. The Santa Ana winds work against step flashing and counterflashing constantly, and once the sealant degrades, water finds its way in. We replace flashing with properly lapped and sealed material, because most “leak repairs” on old Pomona roofs are actually flashing repairs wearing a leak’s clothes.
CertainTeed Service in Pomona: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
There’s a specific problem on Pomona’s older homes that most roofing crews from outside the area get wrong. The original clay tile on 1900s-1930s Craftsman and Spanish-style houses – the homes concentrated in 91766 and around downtown – was laid over skip-sheathing with felt underneath, not a solid plywood or OSB deck. That was standard practice for the era. What it means today is that any repair requires lifting and reusing tiles that are decades old, brittle from decades of UV, and cracked under the weight of their own history. Handling them wrong turns a $600 flashing repair into a $4,000 tile replacement. We recently repaired a 1920s Spanish Colonial bungalow near downtown Pomona with this exact condition. Santa Ana winds had cracked several tiles and exposed the failing felt underneath. We salvaged every intact tile, replaced the underlayment with a high-temp membrane, and re-laid the tile with new fasteners. The roof looks original, because most of it is. That’s the kind of care CertainTeed Symphony tile demands on Pomona’s old stock, and it’s work we’ve done enough times to know which tiles will survive removal and which are already too far gone to bother.

CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Pomona
We work on the CertainTeed lines most common in Pomona: Landmark architectural shingles on mid-century tract homes, Symphony tile on Spanish Colonial bungalows, Presidential Solar Reflective shingles on newer re-roofs, and NorthGate Sagebrush on steep pitches, particularly the two-story homes along the hillsides. When a repair calls for accessories – ridge vents, starter strips, underlayment – we source OEM CertainTeed components where they’re available. For aging roofs where OEM isn’t practical, we match quality aftermarket materials that meet or exceed CertainTeed’s published specs. The goal is a roof that performs, not a parts invoice that looks pretty on paper. Tile roof repair, asphalt shingle work, and flashing repair are the three services we handle most on CertainTeed systems in Pomona, including CertainTeed service in Claremont and nearby areas.

AfterCertainTeed Service Pricing in Pomona
CertainTeed roofing service in Pomona varies with the scope. Tile repair work – removing, salvaging, and resetting clay tile over skip-sheathing – typically runs $500 to $1,200 depending on how many tiles you need handled and what’s going on underneath. Asphalt shingle repair, including seal strip fixes on Presidential shingles or granule-loss patching on Landmark, usually lands between $300 and $800. Flashing replacement around a chimney or skylight runs $400 to $900 on most Pomona homes. Full replacement pricing depends on square footage, pitch, decking condition, and the specific CertainTeed product you choose – Landmark is the workhorse line, Symphony tile is a different price bracket entirely. We’ll give you a written line-item estimate before any work starts, and if a repair will hold, we won’t quote you a replacement just to float a bigger number. Call (855) 382-1073 to schedule your free estimate.

FAQs – CertainTeed Roofing in Pomona
Yes, if the granule loss is isolated to one or two slopes and the fiberglass mat isn’t broadly exposed. We’ll inspect the decking, assess how much material has already sloughed off, and give you a straight answer. On Pomona’s south-facing roof planes, Landmark shingles often show granule loss at the 10-12 year mark from UV exposure, but that doesn’t automatically mean you need a full re-roof. If the damage is concentrated, we patch and re-seal. If it’s widespread and the shingles are cracking, we’ll tell you that patching is money down a hole. Call (855) 382-1073 and we’ll put eyes on it.
Yes, in most cases. CertainTeed’s Symphony line has been produced in consistent profiles and colors for years, and we can source matching new tile for what’s too far gone to salvage. The bigger question on Pomona’s older bungalows is what’s underneath. If the original skip-sheathing is still sound, we salvage intact tiles, replace only what’s cracked, and re-fasten everything properly. If the underlayment has failed, we lift all the tile, re-lay the membrane, and reset the whole field. We’ll tell you which scenario you’re in before we touch anything.
We replace failed flashing with properly lapped step flashing and counterflashing, sealed with high-grade sealant rated for temperature swings. Santa Ana winds don’t just blow rain sideways; they work sealant loose and flex flashing joints until they separate. The repair has to account for that repeated stress, not just cover the gap. On older Pomona homes, we often find original flashing that was marginal on day one and has been degrading for fifty years since. We replace it right, and we warranty the workmanship.
For a mid-century home with a steeper roof pitch, NorthGate Sagebrush is a solid choice, yes. It’s built for wind resistance, which matters in Pomona, and its color range fits the era’s aesthetic. What matters more than the brand is the decking underneath. If the original decking hasn’t been re-nailed or you have skip-sheathing, we’ll address that before any shingle goes down. NorthGate shingles will hold on Pomona roofs if the substrate is sound. We’ll assess yours and recommend the product that actually fits your home, not the one we happen to have the most of in stock. Part of how we can say that honestly is that we source from seven manufacturers – CertainTeed, GAF, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral – so the recommendation comes from the roof, not the warehouse, whether you need work in Pomona or CertainTeed in Covina.
Have it inspected every two years, specifically after winter rain and after a strong Santa Ana event. In Pomona’s climate, the two biggest killers are UV on south-facing slopes and wind working loose shingles, tile, and flashing. We look for early granule loss on Landmark, seal strip separation on Presidential, cracked or slipped Symphony tile on older bungalows, and any fastener back-out on steep pitches. Catching a failed flashing joint in March costs a few hundred dollars. Letting it ride until the next winter rain rots the decking costs thousands. Our inspection is a standalone service – if the roof is fine, we’ll tell you it’s fine and send you the report. We won’t manufacture a repair out of a healthy roof. Call (855) 382-1073 to book one.
