CertainTeed Construction in March Air Force Base, CA | Sycamore Contractors
We’re Sycamore Contractors, an independent General Contractor – March Air Force Base and CertainTeed service provider working across March Air Force Base (ZIP 92551). The short answer: we install and repair CertainTeed roofing systems here, and the one thing that separates our work from any other CertainTeed contractor is that we deal with airfield-adjacent height restrictions and base access requirements on every job. Call (877) 265-6284 for a free estimate on CertainTeed roof repair or replacement.
Why March Air Force Base Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
CertainTeed is one of the seven roofing manufacturers we work with, and we’ve built enough field time with their product lines to know exactly how they behave under Inland Empire conditions. Nate Calloway, our owner, grew up in Temecula’s Redhawk neighborhood and has spent the better part of two decades working roofs across Southwest Riverside County. When a CertainTeed roof fails here, it’s almost never random. It’s wind uplift along the edges, granule loss from triple-digit sun exposure, or underlayment rot under mid-century decking. We also handle CertainTeed in Moreno Valley and diagnose those problems in the context of March Air Force Base specifically. That’s the difference between a crew that reads a product spec sheet and one that’s pulled apart enough failed CertainTeed installations to know what actually goes wrong.
We also stock OEM CertainTeed shingles and accessories for replacements, and we keep common repair materials on hand for faster turnaround on this side of the county. If you’re researching CertainTeed before committing, see our CertainTeed sales & service page for the full picture on how we handle the brand.

Common CertainTeed Construction Problems We Solve in March Air Force Base
- Wind uplift and shingle tab detachment. Santa Ana wind events rip through the March corridor hard. On older CertainTeed Landmark installations with inadequate nail placement, we regularly see tabs lift and tear away. The fix is a repair with correct fastening, or if the roof is past saving, a replacement with a higher wind-rated CertainTeed line.
- Granule loss and premature surface wear. The high-desert-edge sun out here is brutal on Presidential Shake shingles. UV exposure degrades the granule coating faster than coastal roofs see in a decade, and we see bare patches where the asphalt mat starts to show through.
- Underlayment deterioration under mid-century decking. March Air Force Base still has a stock of military-era housing from the WWII-through-Cold-War buildout. Those roofs were often built with limited ventilation, and wind-driven rain can push moisture into failing underlayment that never had a chance to dry properly.
- Flashing failures at transitions and penetrations. Thermal expansion from those hot days and cold nights, combined with settling in aging base-era structures, breaks down flashing around vents and chimneys faster than the shingles themselves.
- Repair versus replace decisions. We don’t push a full replacement when a targeted repair is the honest answer. But when the decking is compromised or the shingle is discontinued, we’ll tell you straight.
CertainTeed Service in March Air Force Base: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the thing most contractors won’t tell you until the job is already scheduled. March Air Force Base is a working joint civil-military airfield, which means construction here runs through the March Joint Powers Authority, not a typical city building department. That’s true for residential roofs too, not just hangars and warehouse buildings. Any roof replacement near the runway corridor has to clear height and airspace coordination before materials even roll onto the property. Cranes, tall staging, material lifts: all of it gets looked at. Add to that base access for homes inside the installation itself. Our crew recently handled CertainTeed repair in Perris and replaced a storm-damaged CertainTeed Landmark roof on a mid-century home in the March AFB housing area. Santa Ana winds had torn shingle tabs clean off and exposed the underlayment. We upgraded to CertainTeed Presidential Shake with an enhanced wind rating and added attic ventilation to combat heat degradation, coordinating with base access for every material delivery. The homeowner ended up with a roof that handles the wind and the heat better than the original ever did. That’s what working around an active airfield teaches you.
We cover all of this in our March Air Force Base service area breakdown if you want the broader picture of how construction works here.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in March Air Force Base
We work across the CertainTeed lines you’re most likely to find on homes in the March area. That includes Landmark, the workhorse architectural shingle on countless 1980s-2000s tract roofs. Presidential Shake, the heavy laminated shingle that shows up on higher-end homes where the homeowner wanted more visual texture. And for older or specialty roofs, we service certain CertainTeed tile profiles. We use OEM CertainTeed shingles and accessories for replacements to keep the system warranty intact. For repairs, we’ll source high-quality aftermarket underlayments and flashing when OEM isn’t practical or available locally. We never claim manufacturer authorization. We’ll also say plainly when a repair is throwing money at a roof that needs replacement.

FAQs – CertainTeed Construction in March Air Force Base
Yes, in most cases. Because March Air Force Base falls under the March Joint Powers Authority rather than a standard city building department, roof replacements are subject to airfield-adjacent height and airspace review. We handle the coordination and documentation as part of the project, but it’s a real step that adds time and planning to the job. Call (877) 265-6284 and we’ll walk you through what applies to your specific property.
Santa Ana winds create uplift that targets shingle edges and tabs, especially on older CertainTeed Landmark roofs where nails were placed too high or too shallow. Over time, tabs lift, crack, and tear away. The fix is either a repair with proper fastening or a replacement using a CertainTeed line with a stronger wind rating. Call (877) 265-6284 and we’ll assess what your roof is up against.
For March Air Force Base’s triple-digit summers and intense sun, we typically recommend CertainTeed Presidential Shake for its heavier construction and better surface durability, paired with proper attic ventilation to reduce heat buildup under the decking. Landmark works well too, but granule loss from UV exposure is more aggressive on entry-level architectural lines out here. We’ll show you both options and help you decide what fits your budget and home.
Granule loss is a sign the shingle surface is aging out, not a single-point repair issue. If it’s localized, we can replace the affected shingles and address the underlying ventilation. If it’s widespread across the roof plane, the honest answer is replacement. We’ll tell you which path makes sense for your roof. Call (877) 265-6284 for a straight assessment.
If your property is inside the base, every worker, vehicle, and material delivery has to clear base access procedures. That means scheduling, ID checks, and escort requirements. For properties near but outside the airfield boundary, height and airspace restrictions still apply to any tall equipment or staging. We’ve done enough work here to build those steps into our timeline from day one, so things don’t stall mid-project.
