CertainTeed Roofing in Montebello, CA | Crestview Roofing Co West Covina
We provide independent CertainTeed roofing service across Montebello, from full tear-offs to flashing repairs and tile underlayment replacement. The one thing that sets our CertainTeed work here apart is that we know how these roofs fail on Montebello’s specific housing stock: 1920s Spanish Colonials with original skip sheathing, mid-century flat roofs, and hillside slopes that take full sun from sunrise to sunset. We’re not a CertainTeed dealer and we’re not manufacturer-affiliated. We’re a local roofing crew that has torn into hundreds of CertainTeed roofs across the San Gabriel Valley and knows exactly what holds up and what doesn’t. Call (831) 777-6412 for a free estimate on any CertainTeed repair or replacement in Montebello.

Why Montebello Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
Dylan Pace, our owner and lead roofer, grew up in Los Angeles and finished a construction technology program at East Los Angeles College before spending more than a decade running crews across the San Gabriel Valley. He’s read more CertainTeed roofs than most people have driven past. When a Montebello homeowner calls about a leak on a Landmark roof, Dylan doesn’t start with a brochure. He starts with the failure pattern: where the water is getting in, what the deck looks like underneath, and whether the previous installer skipped a step that’s now costing you money. That’s the difference between a roofer who replaces shingles and one who fixes roofs. Our CertainTeed sales & service experience covers everything from legacy Independence shingles to current Presidential Shake lines, and we always use OEM-compatible parts on partial repairs so your wind warranty and color blend stay intact.

Common CertainTeed Roofing Problems We Solve in Montebello
- Granule loss and nail-line cracking on Landmark shingles. Montebello summers are brutal on asphalt. Full south and west exposure on hillside homes north of Beverly Boulevard bakes shingles for hours daily, and when the original skip sheathing flexes underneath, the shingles crack right along the nail line. We see this constantly on 1990s and 2000s re-roofs. The fix is usually a partial replacement with matching Landmark shingles, plus deck repair if the sheathing has rotted.
- Blow-offs along eaves during Santa Ana wind gusts. CertainTeed shingles that were installed over original wood shake without a full deck-over are sitting on an uneven surface with poor nail penetration. When Santa Anas hit, those shingles lift and tear. We re-secure the eave edges, add starter strip where it’s missing, and replace blown shingles with matching product. If the problem is widespread, we’ll tell you honestly that a deck-over is the only lasting fix.
- Corroded flashing and valley metal around clay tile transitions. A lot of Montebello’s Spanish Colonial homes have original clay tile in some areas and CertainTeed asphalt in others, often added in the 80s and 90s. The junction where those two meet is a classic leak point. Flashing corrodes, the valley metal rots, and water finds its way into dormer sidewalls. We replace it with galvanized metal and re-flash properly.
- Lost seal-tab adhesion on discontinued Independence shingles. Independence was a good shingle for its era, but after 25-plus years in Montebello’s heat, the seal strips fail. Tabs lift, flap in the afternoon breeze, and let water underneath during winter downpours. If we can source matching New Old Stock, we’ll do a targeted repair. If not, we’ll recommend a full slope replacement with a current CertainTeed line rather than a patch that looks wrong.
- Flat and low-slope built-up roof failures on mid-century buildings. Montebello has a lot of 1950s and 60s apartment buildings and commercial strips with flat or low-slope roofs, many of them CertainTeed built-up systems. Multiple patches, pooling water, and clogged drains are the usual story. We evaluate whether another patch makes sense or whether the roof has reached the end of its service life.
CertainTeed Service in Montebello: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Roof
Here’s a pattern we see in Montebello more than almost anywhere else we work: in the older hillside neighborhoods north of Beverly Boulevard, many original 1920s and 30s clay tile roofs were re-roofed in the 1990s and 2000s with CertainTeed asphalt shingles laid directly over the old skip sheathing, without adding solid decking. Skip sheathing has gaps between the boards, and while clay tile was designed to work with that, asphalt shingles are not. After heavy winter rains, water runs beneath the shingles at those gaps, soaks the underlayment, and stains interior ceilings even though the shingles look perfect from the street. A homeowner will swear the roof is fine, and two feet above their head, the deck is quietly rotting. That’s why Montebello Roof Repair starts with an in-person inspection-we don’t give estimates over photos alone for older Montebello homes. We need to walk the roof, check the deck from the attic side or a test cut, and see what’s actually happening between the shingles and the framing. On a 2008 CertainTeed Landmark roof on Lincoln Avenue, laid over original 1930s skip sheathing, a winter storm left a water stain on the kitchen ceiling below the valley. We opened the deck, found ridge sheathing gaps and a corroded W-valley, cut out the rotted boards, flashed the valley with galvanized metal, and replaced the damaged Landmark shingles with matching Heather Blend. That ceiling has stayed dry through two later storm seasons.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Montebello
We service the full CertainTeed lineup you’re likely to find on Montebello homes: Landmark architectural shingles, Presidential Shake asphalt shingles, Carriage House architectural shingles, and the discontinued Independence line that’s still on thousands of roofs in town. On partial repairs for current lines, we use genuine CertainTeed starter, hip-and-ridge, and matching accessory shingles. That keeps the wind warranty valid and the color blend clean. For legacy lines like Independence, we source certified New Old Stock through our supply network. If the color or profile isn’t available, we say so plainly and recommend a full slope replacement or a complementary new CertainTeed line instead of a mismatched visual patch. We also handle the decking, flashing, and underlayment work that CertainTeed roofs in Montebello actually need: tile underlayment replacement, roof decking replacement, and flashing repair at chimneys, valleys, and sidewalls.

AfterCertainTeed Service Pricing in Montebello
Most standard CertainTeed repairs in Montebello run between $325 and $650, depending on the scope: a valley re-flash is different from replacing eight blown shingles on a eave. Partial slope replacements on Landmark or Presidential Shake roofs typically land in the $900 to $2,400 range, and full re-roofs of a hillside Spanish Colonial with decking work can run $12,000 to $25,000 or more, depending on slope count, deck condition, and whether we’re pulling old tile first. What drives cost here is deck condition and access. Steep hillside lots with limited staging areas take longer, and if we discover rotted skip sheathing, the number changes before we proceed, never after. Your free estimate includes a written line-item price, a walk-through of what we found, and photos of the problem areas. Call (831) 777-6412 to schedule yours.

FAQs – CertainTeed Roofing in Montebello
The leak is almost always in the valley metal or the flashing underneath the shingles, not the shingles themselves. On Montebello homes where clay tile meets CertainTeed asphalt, that transition corrodes over time, and water gets under the valley metal during heavy rain. We remove the valley shingles, replace the corroded metal with galvanized stock, and re-seal the system. Call (831) 777-6412 and we’ll find it fast.
Sometimes. We source certified New Old Stock Independence shingles through our supply network, and when the color and profile match, a targeted repair works. If the color isn’t available, we won’t put a mismatched patch on your roof. We’ll recommend Roof Replacement - Montebello with a full slope using a current CertainTeed line that complements the rest of the roof. We’ll show you both prices and let you decide.
Presidential Shake is a heavy shingle that holds up well in wind, but only if it was installed correctly. The weak points are eaves and rakes, especially on hillside homes where gusts hit the edge of the roof directly. If the original installer skipped starter strip or nailed too high, those edges lift. We re-secure them, add proper starter, and replace any shingles that tore.
Yes, in most cases. California’s Title 24 energy code requires cool roof materials on residential re-roofs, and Montebello building permits follow that standard. CertainTeed’s Landmark Solaris and some other lines meet the reflectance and emittance ratings for LA County. We’ll confirm the specific product requirement for your roof and make sure the material we’re quoting meets it before we pull the permit.
If there are three or more patches and the roof is over 20 years old, replacement is usually the better financial call. Each patch adds labor cost, and a failing built-up roof leaks in new places every season. We’ll give you a written price for both options and a straight recommendation based on what we see. Call (831) 777-6412 and we’ll walk it together.
