CertainTeed Construction in Fontana, CA | Framework Contractors
We’re an independent General Contractor – Fontana team providing CertainTeed installation and repair across Fontana’s 92334, 92335, 92336, and 92337 ZIP codes. If you own a stucco tract home built between the 1980s and early 2000s, you likely have a CertainTeed roof on it, and you already know the sun here doesn’t go easy on shingles. Call us at (844) 681-3590 for a free estimate on any CertainTeed roofing, siding, or exterior construction service.
We’re not authorized by CertainTeed, and we don’t pretend to be. What we are is a crew that’s spent years pulling failed CertainTeed Landmark shingles off Fontana roofs and installing upgraded systems that hold up better under the Inland Empire’s heat cycling and Santa Ana winds. If you’re planning a roof replacement, tile repair, or a standing seam metal upgrade, we handle the full scope from tear-off to final inspection. We also work with the CertainTeed sales & service lines across every major product family, so you’re never locked into a single fix.
Why Fontana Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
Most roofing crews in CertainTeed in Rialto and Fontana can nail down shingles. Fewer can tell you why a CertainTeed Landmark roof on a south-facing slope in the Hunters Ridge neighborhood fails three years earlier than the same roof on the north side of the 210 freeway. That’s the difference when you work with us.
Noel Carbajal, our owner, grew up patching stucco and reroofing porches with his uncle in Santa Ana before studying Construction Technology at Santiago Canyon College. That background matters on a Fontana jobsite, where the houses went up fast during the 1990s building boom and the shortcuts show up in drainage, flashing, and underlayment. We carry that hands-on understanding into every CertainTeed job we quote. Our clients get honest repair-vs-replace recommendations, not a sales pitch, and we use Fontana service area knowledge to tailor every installation to the specific block, not just the brand.

Common CertainTeed Construction Problems We Solve in Fontana
- Accelerated granule loss on Landmark shingles. CertainTeed Landmark shingles on south- and west-facing slopes absorb relentless summer sun in Fontana. After ten to fifteen years, we regularly see thermal cracking and granules washing into gutters. It’s not a defect in the shingle; it’s the heat cycling that comes with living in the Inland Empire.
- Santa Ana wind damage on tile roofs. Fontana’s 1990s Mediterranean-style homes with tile roofs take a beating when the Santa Anas rip through the valley. We find wind-lifted and cracked tiles exposing underlayment, which leads to leaks months after the winds die down.
- Flintlastic seam separation on flat sections. Additions and garages across Fontana often have low-slope sections with CertainTeed Flintlastic membranes. The flat terrain and fast-built grading leave drainage slopes shallow, so ponding water stresses the seams and causes blistering and separation.
- Cedar Impressions siding failure on west-facing walls. On stucco homes with CertainTeed Cedar Impressions siding, west-facing walls bear the brunt of late-afternoon heat buildup. Without proper ventilation behind the panels, we see fading and warping that shortens the product’s life.
- Underlayment deterioration from heat and poor attic ventilation. Fontana’s intense summer temperatures bake the underlayment beneath shingles and tiles. When the original 1990s-era underlayment was also installed without adequate ridge or soffit ventilation, we find it cracked and brittle by year twelve.
CertainTeed Service in Fontana: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Fontana’s boomtown growth came with a tradeoff. Thousands of homes went up east of the I-15 on slab-on-grade foundations, on land that used to be flat ranch acreage. The grading was done quickly, and drainage slopes often ended up too shallow. When the first heavy winter storm hits, water ponds against foundations and flows toward the house instead of away from it. This is something we see constantly in fast-built subdivisions across ZIPs 92335 through 92337, and it is much less common in neighboring cities built on sloped ground.
For CertainTeed roof installations, this changes how we approach the work. On a 1998 stucco tract home in Hunters Ridge, similar to homes we service with CertainTeed in Glen Avon, we found the original CertainTeed Landmark shingles on the south-facing slope had severe granule loss and cracking after just fifteen years. We replaced the roof with CertainTeed Landmark Pro shingles, upgraded the underlayment to CertainTeed RoofRunner, and added extra ventilation to combat heat buildup. That same drainage issue meant we also corrected the grading and installed an enhanced gutter and downspout system. The owner now has a roof that handles Fontana’s sun and wind, and a yard that drains properly when the rains finally come.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Fontana
We install and repair the full CertainTeed product set that matters to Fontana homeowners. The biggest one is Landmark shingles, the architectural asphalt shingle line you see on most tract homes here. We also handle CertainTeed Presidential Shake, the heavier luxury shingle that makes sense on custom homes and larger remodels. For low-slope sections on garages and room additions, we install and repair CertainTeed Flintlastic self-adhered membranes. And for homeowners adding or repairing exterior siding, CertainTeed Cedar Impressions is the go-to line we work with.
Our parts approach is simple. We use CertainTeed OEM components for every replacement: shingles, underlayment, ridge caps, and accessories. That keeps warranty eligibility intact and ensures the replacement material matches the original system. We keep a rolling stock of Landmark shingles, RoofRunner underlayment, and common flashing sizes in our local supply rotation, which shortens turnaround on straightforward Fontana reroofs and repairs.

FAQs – CertainTeed Construction in Fontana
Granule loss in your gutters and curling shingle edges on south- and west-facing slopes usually mean replacement is close, especially if the roof is past fifteen years old. A section of shingles that cracked after a single heat wave can often be repaired with OEM CertainTeed Landmark shingles. We inspect for free and tell you which path makes sense. Call (844) 681-3590 to schedule an inspection.
Yes, and tile repair after Santa Ana wind events is one of the most common calls we get. Cracked or lifted tiles are replaced with matching CertainTeed tile profiles, and we inspect the underlayment beneath for hidden exposure. If the underlayment is compromised, a partial or full replacement may be needed. Call (844) 681-3590 for a storm-damage assessment.
Yes, standing seam metal handles Fontana’s extreme heat and Santa Ana winds better than most asphalt shingles. It reflects solar radiation, sheds wind-driven rain well, and won’t crack under heat cycling. The upfront cost is higher, but it often outlasts two shingle roofs in this climate. We install standing seam metal on many Fontana homes as a long-term CertainTeed alternative. Call (844) 681-3590 for a comparison estimate.
Flat, fast-built subdivisions across Fontana and nearby CertainTeed in Pedley often have shallow yard and foundation drainage slopes. During heavy winter storms, water ponds and can reach foundation walls or under low-slope roof sections. On every CertainTeed installation, we evaluate the overall drainage picture and recommend grading corrections, enhanced underlayment, and gutter upgrades where needed. Call (844) 681-3590 and we’ll check yours.
Expect fifteen to twenty years from CertainTeed Landmark shingles on Fontana homes, depending on slope orientation and attic ventilation. South- and west-facing slopes can age out closer to fifteen years due to intense solar exposure. Proper ventilation and upgraded underlayment can push that toward the upper end. We’ll tell you honestly where your roof sits. Call (844) 681-3590 for a free roof evaluation.
