CertainTeed Construction in Claremont, CA | Sycamore Contractors
We provide independent CertainTeed roofing, siding, and trim service across Claremont, CA, with Montclair CertainTeed service available nearby as well. The one thing that separates our CertainTeed work here from everywhere else we operate: we understand the city’s architectural review process and design guidelines well enough to get period-appropriate CertainTeed products approved the first time, whether it’s a 1920s bungalow near the Village or a mid-century ranch off Base Line Road. If you need CertainTeed repair or replacement in Claremont, call (877) 265-6284 for a free estimate. We are an independent contractor, not a CertainTeed-authorized dealer, and we’ll never pretend otherwise.
Why Claremont Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
CertainTeed makes solid roofing and siding products, but the product is only half the equation. What matters just as much is whether the crew installing or repairing it understands how that product behaves on a Claremont roof, under Claremont sun, against Claremont’s design review board. We do. Nate Calloway, our owner, has spent his career running crews across Southern California’s inland valleys, and he’s particular about matching materials to the actual conditions they’ll face. When we quote a CertainTeed Landmark shingle replacement in Claremont, we account for attic ventilation on a 1930s Craftsman, not just the square footage. That level of detail keeps failures off your roof five and ten years down the line. For anyone looking for CertainTeed sales & service, we’re the crew that brings local building knowledge to the table along with the product expertise.

Common CertainTeed Construction Problems We Solve in Claremont
- UV granule loss on south-facing Landmark shingles. Claremont’s inland sun is relentless. On older homes near the Village without proper ridge or soffit ventilation, CertainTeed Landmark shingles can bake from underneath, shedding granules faster than the warranty would suggest. We see this constantly on south and west roof planes. The fix usually involves localized shingle replacement plus ventilation correction, not a full tear-off.
- Wind uplift at ridge caps and eaves during Santa Ana events. When Santa Anas push through the San Gabriel foothills, exposed lots in Claremont take the brunt of it. CertainTeed shingles installed with standard four-nail patterns instead of the six-nail high-wind spec can lift and lose their seal. We repair the lifted sections and re-nail surrounding shingles to the high-wind pattern.
- Dry rot and sheathing deterioration under Cedar Impressions siding. Claremont’s older Craftsman and Spanish Colonial Revival homes often have original wood trim that was never properly flashed. When Cedar Impressions insulated siding goes over compromised sheathing, moisture gets trapped and the rot spreads quietly. We strip it back, replace the sheathing, and install the siding with correct flashing details.
- Failed underlayment on low-slope porch roofs and additions. Flintlastic SA is a good product, but on low-slope additions where debris accumulates or water ponds, the seams can open. We see this on older Claremont homes with enclosed porches and sunrooms. The repair means removing the roofing, addressing the drainage issue, and reinstalling with proper seam treatment.
- Clay tile roof failures on Spanish Colonial Revival homes. Near the colleges, the original clay tile is beautiful but the underlayment underneath is often shot. We remove the tile, replace the underlayment with CertainTeed Flintlastic SA, and reset matching tile. This is half roof repair and half historic preservation, and it’s work most tract-home crews won’t touch.
CertainTeed Service in Claremont: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s something that’s true in Claremont and almost nowhere else around here: if you own a home in the Village or near the five colleges, replacing your CertainTeed shingles or siding isn’t just a construction job. It’s a design review application. Claremont’s architectural commission wants to see that exterior materials match the character of the home and the neighborhood, which means a crew that slaps on any shingle color off the shelf is going to get rejected. We prepare submittals with CertainTeed color samples and product data sheets showing period-appropriate profiles. We did this recently on a 1920s Spanish Colonial Revival near the colleges. The original clay tile roof had cracked tiles and failed underlayment. We worked through the city’s review process to get a matching CertainTeed tile profile approved, then installed new Flintlastic SA underlayment with reinforced fastening for the Santa Ana exposure. The homeowner got a roof that passed inspection and kept the home’s character. That process rarely applies in neighboring Pomona. It applies in Claremont every single time. If you’re in the 91711 ZIP and planning exterior CertainTeed work, budget time for review and hire someone who’s done it before.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Claremont
We work on the CertainTeed product lines that show up on Claremont homes: Landmark architectural shingles, Presidential Shake luxury shingles, Cedar Impressions insulated siding, and Flintlastic SA self-adhered underlayment. For repairs, we use genuine CertainTeed accessories including ridge vents, starter strips, and underlayments, because that keeps the system warranty intact. But we’re honest about where aftermarket parts are better. In Claremont’s wind and UV exposure, some aftermarket flashing and fasteners outperform OEM. We’ll tell you which one we’re using and why. For replacement tile on Spanish Colonial roofs, we source matching profiles so the repair disappears into the original roofline.

FAQs – CertainTeed Construction in Claremont
If your home is in the Village or near the Claremont Colleges, yes, most exterior changes including roofing material and color go through the city’s design review process. Homes in later tract subdivisions have more flexibility. We handle the submittal paperwork including CertainTeed product data and color samples so you don’t have to navigate it alone. Call (877) 265-6284 if you’re unsure whether your project triggers review, and we’ll tell you honestly.
Santa Anas create uplift pressure that can break the seal on shingles installed with standard nailing patterns, especially along ridge caps and eaves on exposed lots. We re-nail surrounding shingles to the high-wind six-nail pattern and replace any lifted sections. If the roof was recently installed by another contractor and you’re seeing lifted shingles, that’s usually the cause. Call (877) 265-6284 for an inspection and a repair quote.
In most cases, yes. We source matching CertainTeed clay tile profiles and work with the city’s design review to confirm the material reads as historically consistent. The underlayment is usually the bigger issue, and we replace it with CertainTeed Flintlastic SA before resetting the tile. Estimates are free, so call (877) 265-6284 and we’ll tell you what’s actually needed.
Landmark shingles are rated for decades, but Claremont’s inland sun can cut the effective lifespan on poorly ventilated roofs. Homes with proper attic ventilation and high-wind installation regularly get 25 to 30 years. Homes without ventilation bake the shingles from underneath and can lose granules in half that time. We check ventilation on every inspection we do in Claremont. Call (877) 265-6284 to schedule yours.
We do both, and we’ll give you an honest repair-versus-replace assessment either way, including for CertainTeed repair in San Antonio Heights. If a localized repair with matching CertainTeed materials can extend your roof’s life, we’ll tell you that instead of selling you a full replacement. If the underlayment or decking is failing, we’ll show you why replacement makes more sense. Call (877) 265-6284 for a free estimate and a straight answer.
