CertainTeed Roofing in Selma, CA | Brennan Roofing Co Fresno
CertainTeed roofing service in Selma usually comes down to one of two situations: either your shingles are failing after years of Valley heat, or your older tile roof has a hidden leak underneath. We’re a Selma Roofing Company that’s independent and not a manufacturer-affiliated shop, and we’ve repaired and replaced enough CertainTeed roofs across Selma to know exactly how they fail here. The difference is we write the price down before any work starts, and we back it for a full year in writing. Call (559) 785-2160 for a free estimate.
Why Selma Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
CertainTeed holds a strong position on Selma roofs because developers and homeowners have been installing the brand here for generations. You’ll see Landmark TL shingles on ranch homes built in the 1980s and 1990s, Presidential Shake on custom homes, and Grand Manor on more ambitious designs. We know these lines cold: which sealant strips fail first, how the granule blend weathers under Selma’s 100°F summers, and what the repair options are when a single shingle gives out.
Travis Oakley started learning roofing at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College and has run crews across the Valley for over a decade, much of it on older wood-framed homes that punish cut corners. We show up when we say we will. Our technicians are background-checked, they arrive in uniform, and the price goes on paper before the first ladder comes off the truck. That’s the Garrison Standard we operate under, and it applies to every CertainTeed repair and replacement in Selma.

Common CertainTeed Roofing Problems We Solve in Selma
- Granule loss on Landmark TL shingles. After years of Selma sun, the ceramic granules on CertainTeed Landmark TL shingles wear away, leaving bare fiberglass mat exposed. That mat turns brittle, then cracks, and water finds its way through. On Selma’s ranch homes, we see this most on south-facing slopes that catch direct afternoon heat.
- Thermal splitting on 1970s 3-tab shingles. Older CertainTeed 3-tab shingles in Selma split along their sealant strips when the roof deck expands and contracts through extreme temperature swings. The crack runs in a long, straight line that aligns with the rafters below. These shingles curl, lose granules, and let wind lift them during winter storms.
- Tile underlayment breakdown under clay or concrete tiles. Selma has many older homes with original CertainTeed clay tile that looks fine from the ground. The tile rarely fails. The underlayment beneath it does. When that asphalt-saturated felt or synthetic layer breaks down, water seeps through and rots the decking while the tile itself sits there looking perfectly intact.
- Curling and cupping on older CertainTeed shingles. When the asphalt mat dries out from years of Selma heat, the edges of the shingle curl upward. Cupping happens when the center dips and the edges rise. Both let wind get underneath during winter storms, and we’ve watched otherwise healthy roofs lose whole sections of shingles this way.
- Dark streaks from granule loss. Many Selma homeowners notice dark, streaky lines running down their shingles and think it’s moss or dirt. It’s not. It’s the exposed asphalt base coat, and it means the shingles have lost most of their protective granules and are near the end of their useful life.
CertainTeed Service in Selma: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s something that shapes every CertainTeed replacement we do in Selma’s older districts: the 1920s and 1930s bungalows that fill neighborhoods around Valley Street and the downtown core were built with steep-pitch roofs and tongue-and-groove decking that was never designed to hold two layers of shingles. A second layer adds weight and traps heat, which is why so many of these roofs fail at the decking level rather than the shingle level. On these Selma homes, we do a full tear-off down to the original 1-by-6 decking before the first new CertainTeed shingle goes on. We check the decking board by board, replace any water-damaged sections, and only then lay down new underlayment and shingles. In neighboring towns you’ll sometimes see roofers layer new shingles over old ones to save money, but on Selma’s steep-pitch historic stock that shortcut shortens the life of the new roof and hides problems that Selma Roof Repair should address properly. damage underneath. We won’t do it.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Selma
We install and repair the CertainTeed lines that cover Selma’s housing stock: Presidential Shake for the dimensional wood-shake look on larger homes, Landmark TL for ranch and suburban builds, Grand Manor for heavyweight architectural profiles, and Highland Slate for the stone look without the weight of real slate. We use genuine CertainTeed stock when matching existing shingles or tiles, because exact color and granule blend matter on the street-facing slopes everyone sees. When original stock is discontinued, we’ll tell you straight: a mismatched patch on a visible slope looks worse than it performs, and a full slope replacement with a current CertainTeed line is usually the better call. For Selma turnaround, we maintain local access to common CertainTeed colors and profiles, which means less waiting when you have a leak that can’t sit.

AfterCertainTeed Service Pricing in Selma
CertainTeed shingle repair in Selma typically runs $325 to $650 for a contained leak or a few damaged shingles. A full slope re-roof with CertainTeed Landmark TL on an average Selma ranch home lands between $8,500 and $14,000, depending on decking repair, tear-off access, and the condition of what’s underneath. Tile underlayment replacement under existing clay or concrete tile adds real cost because the tile has to come off, the old felt comes out, new underlayment goes down, and the tile gets reset. Call (559) 785-2160 for a written line-item quote, not a ballpark read from a satellite photo. We put numbers on paper before any work starts.

FAQs – CertainTeed Roofing in Selma
Yes. Landmark TL shingles have a heavier mat and better granule adhesion than 1970s 3-tab shingles, which means they hold their granules longer under Selma’s UV load and don’t split at the sealant line the way old 3-tabs do. Call (559) 785-2160 for an exact quote on upgrading your Selma roof.
The most likely cause is underlayment failure. The tile itself holds up for decades, but the felt or synthetic layer beneath it breaks down after 25 to 40 years, especially in Selma’s temperature swings. Water gets through where the underlayment has degraded, rots the decking, and shows up as a ceiling stain while the tile above still looks perfect. Call (559) 785-2160 and we’ll inspect it properly.
If the shingle is a current production color, we can usually match it and replace just the damaged area. If the color has been discontinued, which happens with Grand Manor lines over time, a patch will stand out visibly. On street-facing slopes in Selma, we’ll often recommend replacing the full slope with a current line rather than leaving a patch that looks like a mistake. Call (559) 785-2160 for an honest assessment.
Those dark streaks are the asphalt base coat showing through after the ceramic granules have worn off. Hosing does nothing because there’s nothing to wash away, the color difference is the exposed mat itself. In Selma, this happens fastest on south and west-facing slopes. It’s a sign the shingles are approaching the end of their life. Call (559) 785-2160 and we’ll tell you how much life is actually left.
It requires care, not a special permit. Selma’s 1920s and 1930s bungalows often had wood shake or early asphalt shingle roofs with a particular profile and color. We match current CertainTeed lines, often Presidential Shake or Landmark TL, to the original look as closely as the current product line allows. The historic character of the roofline matters on these homes, and we don’t flatten it with the wrong profile. Call (559) 785-2160 to talk through options for your specific Selma home.
