CertainTeed Construction in Brea, CA | Stallion Contractors
We provide independent CertainTeed construction service across Brea, from roofing and siding to storm repair, and we do it without any manufacturer affiliation. The thing that separates our CertainTeed work here is that Brea isn’t one housing market, it’s three: early-1900s bungalows downtown, mid-century tract homes on slabs, and modern hillside builds in the north. A roofer who treats them all the same will miss what each era’s roof actually needs. Call (855) 600-3192 for a free estimate, or read on if you want the full picture.
Why Brea Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
We’re a full-scope general contractor, which means the same team that handles your CertainTeed roof also understands your siding, windows, and the drainage around your foundation. Most Brea roofing crews can nail shingles. Few can look at a 1960s slab-on-grade tract home and catch how a roof replacement needs to tie into old stucco-over-sheathing walls, or how a 1920s downtown bungalow’s roof pitch changes the way CertainTeed Presidential Shake needs to be laid. That cross-trade fluency comes from Ruben Montoya, our owner, who grew up around Colton and learned construction hands-on at San Bernardino Valley College before spending two-plus decades on Inland Empire job sites. Good work doesn’t need a sales pitch, it needs the right materials and someone who knows what they’re doing. We bring that to every CertainTeed sales & service job in Brea service area.

Common CertainTeed Construction Problems We Solve in Brea
- South-facing Landmark Pro granule loss. Brea’s Santa Ana winds come hot and dry, and when they hit a south-facing roof on a 1990s hillside home with limited attic ventilation, CertainTeed Landmark Pro shingles bake. We see premature granule loss and edge curling on those slopes far more often than anywhere else in the city. The fix starts with attic ventilation, not just new shingles.
- Flintlastic SA seam failure on 1960s tract homes. Brea’s mid-century houses were built fast, and many still have the original uneven roof decks. When Flintlastic SA self-adhered underlayment goes over an unlevel deck without re-sheeting, it wrinkles and debonds at the seams, then wind gets under it during a Santa Ana event and lifts whole sections. We check the deck before we touch the underlayment.
- Presidential Shake cracking at the keyway. Older downtown Brea bungalows in 92821 often have steep, character-rich roof lines that invite foot traffic during chimney or vent repairs. Presidential Shake is a thicker luxury profile, and in Brea’s low-humidity heat it gets brittle. Hand pressure at the keyway snaps it. We walk those roofs like they’re made of glass.
- Monogram siding impact damage on west-facing walls. Hillside homes in 92823 catch the afternoon sun hard, and during wind events, debris hits west-facing Monogram siding with surprising force. Add Brea’s dry air, and you get chalky oxidation and impact cracks in the same season. We repair and replace with OEM CertainTeed stock matched to the existing profile.
- Ridge cap and eave underlayment failure after Santa Ana wind events. This is the classic Brea hillside roof injury: the wind gets under the ridge cap at the peak, lifts it, and tears underlayment at the eaves. We see it most on 1990s two-story homes in Blackstone Canyon and Tonner Hills, where the ridgelines catch the full force of the winds.
CertainTeed Service in Brea: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s something a flat-land roofer in Brea won’t tell you. The north-side hillside lots in 92823 are built on graded slopes engineered to shed water toward retaining walls, not soak it into the ground. That changes everything about a roof replacement. If a CertainTeed roof on those slopes gets a standard drip edge and basic pan flashing, the first heavy winter rain sends runoff straight down the wall line and into the slope drainage system, which then overflows against the retaining wall. We saw exactly this play out over years of storm calls. On those lots, we upgrade the drip edge and tie pan flashing directly into the slope drainage so the roof and the hillside work as one system. A roofer who only works flat pads in central Brea never learns that lesson because they never see the failure. We specify it on every 92823 hillside bid.
We replaced a wind-damaged CertainTeed Landmark Pro roof on a 1990s two-story home in Blackstone Canyon after a Santa Ana event lifted the ridge caps and tore underlayment at the eaves. We re-sheeted the affected slopes, installed new Flintlastic SA underlayment and OEM ridge vent, and tied the drip edge into the existing hillside drainage so the retaining wall didn’t take the next storm. The roof got fixed and the property’s defensible space got restored in the same pass.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Brea
We work across the CertainTeed product lines Brea homeowners actually have on their roofs and walls: Landmark Pro asphalt shingles for mid-century and modern tract homes, Presidential Shake luxury shingles for the older downtown bungalows and higher-end hillside builds, Flintlastic SA self-adhered underlayment for tile and steep-slope applications, and Monogram siding for exterior replacements. We use CertainTeed OEM shingles, underlayments, and accessories for warrantable installations, and we specify OEM-level aftermarket ventilation and flashing when matching existing systems. If the roof has isolated storm or wind damage, we repair it. If granule loss or seam failure covers more than 30 percent of the roof, we recommend full replacement to restore the system warranty. We keep the most common profiles and underlayments stocked for quick turnaround across Brea’s 92821, 92822, and 92823 ZIP codes.

AfterCertainTeed Service Pricing in Brea
CertainTeed construction costs in Brea track two things: the roof’s era and its exposure. A 1960s tract home with a simple gable roof lands on the lower end. A 1990s hillside two-story with retaining-wall drainage tying into the flashing lands higher. What drives the price: re-sheeting uneven decks, slope access, defensible-space work, and whether the roof needs OEM ridge vent retrofit. Every estimate we give is free, line-itemed, and fixed, no change orders after the fact.
| Service | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Roof Replacement | $8,000 – $20,000 |
| Roof Repair | $400 – $1,800 |
| Metal Roof Installation | $15,000 – $40,000 |
| Tile Roof Repair | $600 – $2,500 |

FAQs – CertainTeed Construction in Brea
Yes. Landmark Pro is CertainTeed’s best wind-rated asphalt line, and we’ve installed it on exposed Brea hillsides where the Santa Ana winds rip through Blackstone Canyon and Tonner Hills. The shingle holds, but only if the underlayment and ridge cap installation are done correctly, because the wind failure usually starts at the seams, not the shingle face. Call (855) 600-3192 for an honest read on your roof’s wind exposure.
Yes, if the granule loss is isolated to a few shingles or one slope. If it covers more than 30 percent of the roof or the shingles are curling at the edges, you’re looking at a replacement to restore the CertainTeed warranty. On Brea’s 1960s tract homes, we also check the attic ventilation first, because poor ventilation is usually why those granules went missing in the first place. Call (855) 600-3192 and we’ll climb up and tell you straight.
Because Brea’s north-side hillside lots in 92823 are graded to shed water toward retaining walls, not into the ground. That means the roof’s drip edge and pan flashing have to tie directly into the slope drainage, or the first heavy rain sends runoff against the retaining wall and you get a much bigger problem than a leaky roof. Downtown bungalows on flat pads don’t have that water path, so standard flashing works. We spec the upgrade on every hillside job.
Flintlastic SA self-adhered underlayment, because it seals around the fasteners and holds up to the wind-driven rain Brea gets during Santa Ana storms. On 1960s tract homes, we re-sheet the deck first if it’s uneven, because Flintlastic SA will wrinkle and debond over an old unlevel deck. The underlayment is only as good as what’s under it.
Yes. We stock the common Landmark profiles and colors for Brea, and for discontinued shades, we can source OEM-matched runs from CertainTeed distributors. A same-manufacturer and same-profile match keeps the roof warrantable and keeps the repair from looking like a patch. Call (855) 600-3192 for a repair quote.
