CertainTeed Construction in Pomona, CA | Sycamore Contractors
We provide independent CertainTeed roofing and siding service across Pomona, from the Craftsman bungalows near Lincoln Park to the mid-century tracts off the 91768 corridor. What sets our CertainTeed work apart in this city is that we know how the product performs against two things Pomona throws at it constantly: intense San Gabriel Valley sun and Santa Ana wind gusts. We’re not manufacturer-affiliated or authorized, but we’ve installed and repaired enough CertainTeed product here to know exactly what holds up and what doesn’t. Call (877) 265-6284 for a free estimate on any CertainTeed roof, siding, or gutter project in Pomona.
Why Pomona Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
CertainTeed makes a broad product line, and that’s part of the issue. A crew that only does new construction in a master-planned community won’t understand how a Landmark shingle behaves on a 1920s roof deck in Wilton Heights. We do. Nate Calloway, our owner, grew up in Temecula’s Redhawk neighborhood and has spent two decades running crews across Southwest Riverside County and the eastern San Gabriel Valley. He’s seen how Pomona’s older housing stock interacts with modern roofing materials, and he trains our crews accordingly, including for CertainTeed service in Claremont.
We track CertainTeed’s product revisions and warranty language closely because a shingle spec that changed three years ago might mean the difference between an approved claim and a denied one. But we remain an independent contractor, which means when a CertainTeed product isn’t the right fit for a particular Pomona roof, we’ll say so and offer alternatives. That’s the point of CertainTeed sales & service done honestly. You get the brand expertise without the brand bias.

Common CertainTeed Construction Problems We Solve in Pomona
- Granule loss and curling on Landmark shingles on west-facing slopes. Pomona’s hot, dry summers punish west and south exposures. We regularly see Landmark shingles lose granules and start curling within 10 – 15 years on those slopes, especially when attic ventilation was never upgraded on a pre-1950 home. The fix usually involves more than a patch: ventilation correction plus selective replacement or a full reroof.
- Caulk joint failures on Cedar Impressions siding over original redwood. Many Pomona homes built before 1940 have original redwood siding underneath a later CertainTeed Cedar Impressions install. When the old redwood wasn’t evened out with proper sheathing first, the Cedar Impressions panels flex and the caulk joints separate. Moisture gets in behind the panels and the problem compounds. We see this constantly in the 91766 ZIP code.
- Tab lift on Presidential Shake in Santa Ana wind corridors. Presidential Shake is a heavy luxury shingle, but it’s still vulnerable at ridges and hips when nailing patterns weren’t adjusted for Pomona’s Santa Ana gusts. Sealant strips release, tabs lift, and you get wind-driven rain entry. The fix is hand-sealing and re-nailing per CertainTeed’s high-wind spec, or replacement if the damage is widespread.
- Ponding and seam cracking on Symfony composite roofing over low-slope additions. Mid-century Pomona additions often have flat or very low-slope roofs. When Symfony composite was installed over those without re-pitching the deck, water ponds and the surface cracks at seams. Winter rains expose the problem fast. Re-pitching or a membrane overlay is usually required before new CertainTeed material goes down.
- Ridge vent failures on older CertainTeed installs. Many Pomona homes had CertainTeed ridge vents installed 15 – 20 years ago that are now brittle and cracked from UV exposure. The shingles may still have life, but the exhaust ventilation is compromised, which accelerates shingle deterioration. We replace ridge vents as a standalone service when the roof deck is still sound.
CertainTeed Service in Pomona: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the thing about working in Pomona that doesn’t apply in Chino or Ontario: the housing stock is old. Not just old, but pre-code in ways that change how a CertainTeed roof gets installed. In the Lincoln Park and Wilton Heights historic districts, we routinely find original redwood sill plates and 1920s concrete foundations that require engineer-specified retrofits before we can even pull a reroof permit. That’s a pre-war housing pattern you won’t encounter in neighboring Inland Empire cities where most homes were built after 1970, unlike areas served by our Los Serranos CertainTeed service. What it means for your CertainTeed roof is this: before a single shingle goes down, the structure underneath may need attention. We coordinate that with licensed structural engineers and the Pomona building department so the permit process moves without surprises. A reroof here isn’t a commodity job. It’s a structural project with a roofing finish, and we treat it that way from day one.
Last spring we reroofed a 1923 Craftsman bungalow near Lincoln Park where the original CertainTeed Landmark shingles had lost most of their granules on the south slope and were curling at the eaves. We stripped the roof, replaced three cracked redwood sheathing boards, and installed new CertainTeed Landmark Pro shingles with a high-wind nailing pattern and OEM ridge vent. The homeowner got a clean inspection and a 30-year limited warranty. That’s how the job should go in Pomona’s older neighborhoods.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Pomona
We work on the full CertainTeed residential roofing and siding lineup: Landmark Series shingles, Presidential Shake luxury shingles, Cedar Impressions siding, and Symfony composite roofing. On the parts side, we use CertainTeed OEM accessories like starter strips, ridge vents, and sealants to keep manufacturer warranties intact. When OEM parts are backordered, which does happen, we substitute quality aftermarket flashing and fasteners and tell you exactly what we used and why. For Pomona turnaround, we keep common CertainTeed accessories on hand locally: starter strips, ridge caps, and sealant in the colors most often spec’d on Pomona homes, and we carry stock for CertainTeed repair in Montclair as well. That means fewer delays when a repair can’t wait for a distributor shipment.
CertainTeed Service Pricing in Pomona
CertainTeed work in Pomona generally runs consistent with the rest of Southern California, but the age of the structure underneath often adds a bit of prep scope. Here are the ranges we quote from, based on typical Pomona homes:
| Service | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| Roof Replacement | $8000 – $20000 |
| Roof Repair | $400 – $1800 |
| Tile Roof Repair | $600 – $2500 |
What moves the number is deck condition, pitch, number of stories, and whether old material needs disposal plus any structural retrofit the engineer flags. Our free estimate includes a full inspection of the existing roof, attic ventilation check, and a written line-item quote. No change orders mid-job unless you add scope. Call (877) 265-6284 to schedule yours.

FAQs – CertainTeed Construction in Pomona
Yes, in most cases. CertainTeed Landmark is still in production and the colorways haven’t shifted dramatically over the years, though sun exposure on a Pomona roof will have faded the existing shingles somewhat. We’ll pull a sample from your roof, match it against current CertainTeed color stock, and if the match isn’t close enough to look right, we’ll tell you before we order anything. A patch that stands out looks worse than a full slope replacement, and we don’t want you paying for either one unless it’s the right call.
CertainTeed Landmark and Presidential Shake both perform well in high-wind conditions when installed to spec, including the correct nailing pattern and hand-sealing at ridges and hips. The problem we see in Pomona isn’t the shingle itself; it’s installs that skipped the high-wind details. When installed correctly, CertainTeed carries wind warranty coverage up to 110 mph on Landmark Pro. Call (877) 265-6284 and we can inspect your current install to see if your roofline is doing what it should.
If it’s against the original 1950s wood siding and the underlying sheathing was never corrected, repair will buy you a few years at most. Chalking is cosmetic, but cracking at seams means moisture is already getting behind the panels, and on a Pomona house that age, the framing behind it may already be compromised. We’ll pull a section during the estimate and show you what’s happening underneath. Replacement with proper sheathing and flashing is usually the better investment once cracking is widespread. Call (877) 265-6284 and we’ll give you a straight answer.
We help with the documentation side, yes. We’re an independent contractor, not a CertainTeed authorized dealer, so we can’t file a claim on your behalf directly, but we’ll provide the install documentation, photos, and product records you need to submit a claim, and we’ll walk you through the process. If an inspection is required, we’ll be there to meet the CertainTeed rep and make sure the roof is represented accurately.
For a small single-story bungalow in Pomona, say 800 to 1,100 square feet of roof area, you’re generally looking at $8000 to $14000 for a full CertainTeed Landmark replacement. That includes tear-off, deck repair if minor, new underlayment, CertainTeed starter and ridge accessories, and haul-away. If the deck needs significant structural work or retrofits for the pre-war framing, expect the number to climb. Call (877) 265-6284 for an exact quote. Estimates are free and take about an hour on site.
