CertainTeed Roofing in Pomona, CA | Baycrest Roofing
We provide independent CertainTeed roofing service across Pomona and nearby communities, including CertainTeed service in Claremont, and the one thing that makes our work here different is that we know how these shingles actually fail under Santa Ana winds and high UV exposure on roofs that span a century of construction styles. Baycrest Roofing inspects first and recommends second, so you never pay for a replacement when an honest repair is the right call. If your CertainTeed roof is showing granule loss, lifted tabs, or a leak near the ridge, call (866) 412-5697 for a free estimate. We’re not authorized by CertainTeed, and that independence means our recommendation is based on your roof’s actual condition, not a brand mandate.
Why Pomona Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
Most roofing companies in Pomona carry one or two shingle lines and push whatever earns the highest margin. We carry seven: GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. That breadth matters when you’re standing in front of a 1920s Craftsman near Lincoln Park with original skip sheathing, because the right answer isn’t always a CertainTeed replacement. The same holds for homes needing CertainTeed repair in Montclair or surrounding areas. Sometimes it is. Our job is to tell you which, and why, without brand bias.
Nolan Cafferty, our owner, spent years in the field across the Inland Valley learning how Southern California’s combination of UV exposure, Santa Ana winds, and occasional heavy rain creates failure patterns you don’t see in other climates. He started Baycrest to do the kind of work he’d want on his own house: correct materials, correct installation, no shortcuts taken because a job was running long. That’s the standard we apply to every CertainTeed roof we touch in Pomona.
We stock CertainTeed OEM accessories when they’re the best option, and we also carry aftermarket underlayments and flashings that meet or exceed spec. When you call us about a leak on your CertainTeed roof, you won’t wait weeks for a special-order part to arrive from a distributor. We keep what Pomona’s climate demands on hand.

Common CertainTeed Roofing Problems We Solve in Pomona
- Granule loss and cracking on Landmark shingles. Pomona’s hot, dry summers bake west- and south-facing slopes, and after 15 to 20 years, Landmark architectural shingles often show severe granule loss and surface cracking. This shows up most on older tract homes with limited attic ventilation, where heat gets trapped under the decking and cooks the shingle from below. We inspect the full slope before recommending repair or replacement.
- Wind-lifted Xton shingles after Santa Ana events. Xton shingles are heavier than standard architectural lines, but when wind funnels through the Pomona Valley from the Cajon Pass, tabs along ridges and edges can lift, especially if original nail placement was marginal or the seal strip never fully bonded. We see this in clusters after every dry wind event, and the fix is usually more involved than pressing a tab back down.
- Brittle, cracked underlayment under Presidential Shake. Presidential Shake luxury shingles have a deep profile that traps heat against the underlayment. On mid-century ranches across the east side of Pomona, we repeatedly find Flintlastic SA or felt underlayment that has turned brittle and cracked well before the shingle above it needs replacement. When we lift those shingles for a repair, the underlayment often comes up in pieces.
- Shingle cracking and fastener back-out on overlaid wood shake roofs. Many pre-war Pomona bungalows had their original wood shake overlaid with CertainTeed asphalt shingles at some point. When the decking was never replaced or skimped on, shingles crack prematurely and fasteners back out as the old shake moves beneath them. This is a structural issue, not a shingle defect.
- Ridge cap and drip edge failure where heat hits hardest. On older roofs across Pomona, sun-baked shingles crack along the drip edge where afternoon heat hits hardest. Ridge caps lift during Santa Ana winds. We replace ridge caps with CertainTeed’s matching ridge vent and seal drip edges properly, because this detail is missing on a surprising number of Pomona roofs.
CertainTeed Service in Pomona: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Pomona’s roofing identity is built on the sheer age and diversity of its housing stock combined with the Santa Ana wind corridor that funnels through the Pomona Valley. A roofer here is as likely to be re-sheeting a 1920s Craftsman near downtown as repairing wind-lifted tiles on a mid-century ranch. Unlike newer Inland Empire subdivisions to the east, most Pomona roofs were not built to a single tract spec, so every job gets assessed on its own framing and material history. That matters for CertainTeed work specifically, whether it’s Los Serranos CertainTeed service or work right here in Pomona: the same Landmark shingle that performs well on a 1990s tract home with solid OSB decking behaves completely differently on a pre-war bungalow with skip sheathing from the Roosevelt administration. We don’t apply a one-size approach to a city where the housing stock spans a hundred years of building codes and construction methods.
The skip-sheathing issue deserves particular attention. Pomona’s pre-war bungalows near downtown and around Lincoln Park often have original wood shake over spaced boards. When we replace those roofs with CertainTeed asphalt shingles, we must first install a solid deck. That step adds cost and time, and some contractors skip it to keep their bid low. Skipping it voids the CertainTeed warranty and guarantees premature shingle cracking and fastener back-out. We won’t do it, because a roof either sheds water or it doesn’t. Everything else is just conversation.
After a dry Santa Ana event, we were called to a 1950s ranch in the 91766 ZIP where CertainTeed Landmark shingles had wind-lifted along the ridge and cracked at the drip edge. We replaced the ridge caps with CertainTeed’s matching ridge vent and sealed the edges, also swapping out brittle underlayment on the south slope. The homeowner avoided a full reroof for now and gained a wind-resistant edge detail we see missing on many Pomona roofs. That’s the kind of targeted outcome that only comes from inspecting before recommending. If you’re in our Pomona service area, we’ll do the same for your roof.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Pomona
We work on the full CertainTeed residential line you’re likely to find on Pomona homes: Landmark architectural shingles, XT (Xton) architectural shingles, and Presidential Shake luxury shingles. We also replace Flintlastic SA self-adhered underlayment, which CertainTeed specifies for tile and low-slope applications. Our parts approach is straightforward: we use CertainTeed OEM accessories like shingle starter strips, ridge caps, and ridge vents when available and cost-effective, and we stock quality aftermarket underlayments and flashings that meet or exceed spec when they offer a better value or faster installation. For most Pomona homeowners, that means no weeks-long wait for a distributor order when a leak needs attention now.

AfterCertainTeed Service Pricing in Pomona
CertainTeed service pricing in Pomona and Upland CertainTeed service areas depends on the failure mode, the slope, and the home’s age. A targeted shingle replacement on a Landmark roof might run a few hundred dollars. Replacing ridge caps and sealing edges after a Santa Ana event varies with the linear footage and access. A full underlayment replacement beneath tile or Presidential Shake is a bigger job because it means lifting every shingle or tile above it. And if your pre-war bungalow needs decking before we can install CertainTeed shingles, that cost is a real line item, not a surprise change order. We give written line-item quotes before any work starts, so you know exactly what you’re paying for and why. Call (866) 412-5697 for a free estimate. You’ll get specifics, not a vague number.

FAQs – CertainTeed Roofing in Pomona
Not necessarily. Granule loss on Pomona south-facing slopes is often UV-driven surface wear. If the shingle mat is still pliable and the loss is localized, a targeted repair with color-matched CertainTeed shingles can add years. If granule loss is widespread across multiple slopes and the shingles crack when lifted, replacement is the better investment. We’ll inspect before we recommend either way. Call (866) 412-5697 for a free estimate and an honest read on your roof.
Santa Ana winds out of the Cajon Pass lift ridge caps and edge tabs first, especially on homes near the valley’s wind gaps. XT shingles with marginal nail placement are most vulnerable. What can you do: have us inspect after the first significant wind event of the season. We can replace lifted caps with CertainTeed’s matching ridge vent, re-secure tabs, and seal drip edges before a small lift becomes a water entry point.
This depends entirely on the decking underneath. If the original shake is still sound and the decking is solid, a targeted repair on the CertainTeed overlay is possible. If the shake is disintegrating or the decking was never replaced, repairs will fail because the surface below is moving. In that case, tear-off and new decking is the only honest path. We’ll tell you which applies to your Pomona home after we get on the roof and look. Call (866) 412-5697 for an inspection-based answer, not a guess.
Yes, the heat matters a lot. Pomona’s summers bake underlayment well before the tile above it fails. We use CertainTeed Flintlastic SA self-adhered underlayment when a job specifies it, and we also install quality aftermarket self-adhered products that outperform older felt. The key is that the underlayment must handle high UV and thermal cycling without cracking. We’ve pulled up enough brittle felt under Pomona tile to know what premature failure looks like. We’ll recommend the right product for your roof profile.
Yes. We stock common CertainTeed Landmark colors used across Pomona, and we can source others through our distributor network. Color match matters on repairs because a patch that stands out looks like a patch. We also carry CertainTeed matching ridge caps so repairs blend with the existing roof. Call (866) 412-5697 after the wind dies down and we’ll get you scheduled for an inspection.
