Why Boca Raton Homeowners Choose CertainTeed Construction
Rowan Construction Group Boca Raton provides Certainteed repair in Boca Raton as an independent construction service for homeowners who need roof repair, replacement, and metal roofing systems installed or serviced by crews who know the product lines from field experience, not a dealer manual. We’re not authorized by CertainTeed, and we don’t need to be - we’ve worked on hundreds of CertainTeed assemblies across Palm Beach County since 2007, and we document every condition we find before we quote a flat written price. Call (754) 254-8065 to schedule your free estimate.
CertainTeed’s product range runs deep: Landmark architectural shingles, Presidio metal roofing, Cedar Impressions polymer siding, and AirRenew drywall systems all have a footprint in Boca Raton’s housing stock, particularly in the Arvida-era planned communities where original tile roofs are being replaced and interior renovations are updating older construction. The city’s dual-track permitting - city building department plus private Architectural Review Boards in gated communities like Boca West, Broken Sound, and Woodfield - means any CertainTeed re-roof or exterior upgrade must clear aesthetic compliance before the first shingle is delivered, a process we also handle for Delray Beach Certainteed service clients. We’ve navigated that process enough times to know which CertainTeed color blends pass ARB review and which don’t.
Our CertainTeed work is warranty-safe, not warranty-authorized. We use OEM materials when the match matters and quality aftermarket components when they meet or exceed Florida Building Code, and we document every layer so the homeowner has a record independent of any manufacturer claim.
Why Trust Rowan Construction Group Boca Raton for Your CertainTeed Construction?
Grant Rowan grew up in Beverly Hills, CA, where his father spent weekends restoring a 1960s ranch house and handed him his first framing square at age nine. He trained in construction technology at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College before spending two decades learning how buildings behave under load, in heat, and through permitting offices. That background shows up in how our crews assess CertainTeed systems: we don’t guess at why the Landmark shingles failed - we measure granule loss, check nail placement against Florida product approval standards, and photograph the underlayment condition before we write a scope.
Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and trained on CertainTeed’s specific fastening patterns and accessory requirements. We stock common CertainTeed colors and profiles locally for faster turnaround on repairs, and we maintain relationships with distributors who can source discontinued shades when an ARB mandates an exact match. Every visit produces a documented photo record, included as standard - not an upgrade - so you see what we saw before any work starts.
The Haven Standard, which Rowan Construction Group Boca Raton operates under, requires a written price before any work begins and a signed change order before any deviation from that price. Clause 1 is the whole point: the number you agree to is the number you pay, within a few percent, because no change proceeds without documentation. That’s the discipline that has kept 4,000-plus projects on budget since 2007.
Our signature approach: measure twice, document everything, then build.
Common CertainTeed Construction Problems We Fix in Boca Raton

- Landmark shingle granule loss and ridge cracking. Boca Raton’s position on the Atlantic coast puts CertainTeed Landmark shingles through repeated hurricane wind uplift cycles and salt spray exposure. The granules protect the asphalt mat from UV; once they’re gone, the shingle cooks from underneath and cracks along the ridge where flex stress concentrates. We see this most on roofs installed before 2012, when Florida’s high-velocity hurricane zone requirements were less stringent about nail placement and underlayment overlap. Our repair replaces the damaged courses with matching Landmark or Landmark Pro shingles, upgrades the underlayment to peel-and-stick membrane at the ridge, and verifies fastener pull-out resistance with a documented test.
- Presidio metal roof corrosion at cut edges and fasteners. CertainTeed’s Presidio metal roofing system performs well when the coastal detailing is done right, but we’ve found corrosion at panel ends and fastener points where installers skipped the butyl tape seal or used standard steel fasteners instead of stainless steel. The salt air accelerates galvanic reaction at any break in the coating. We replace corroded panels with OEM Presidio stock, reseal all cut edges with color-matched touch-up paint and butyl tape, and upgrade to stainless-steel ring-shank fasteners that meet Florida product approval for HVHZ wind loads.
- Cedar Impressions siding warp and uneven fade. CertainTeed’s polymer siding product can warp on south- and west-facing walls in Boca Raton where afternoon heat buildup exceeds the material’s expansion tolerance. Uneven fading follows, because the UV degradation isn’t distributed across the wall plane. This is an aesthetic failure that also compromises the moisture barrier if warped panels pull away from the nail hem. Our repair removes the affected courses, checks the underlying weather-resistive barrier for tears, and reinstalls with proper expansion gaps and darker color selections where ARBs permit - darker colors actually perform better in high-UV environments because they contain more stabilizer.
- AirRenew drywall surface mold in unconditioned spaces. CertainTeed’s AirRenew drywall is designed to absorb formaldehyde and other VOCs, but in Boca Raton’s humidity - particularly in homes where the AC is set high or the envelope leaks - surface mold can develop before the air-purifying function ever activates. The mold isn’t a product defect; it’s an environmental mismatch. We remove the affected AirRenew, trace the moisture source (usually duct leakage or exterior infiltration), remediate the condition, and reinstall with proper humidity control specified. The drywall’s performance warranty requires indoor RH below 60%; we document the reading.
- Roof-to-wall connector failure on older CertainTeed re-roofs. When CertainTeed roofing is installed over original construction from the 1970s-1990s Arvida stock, the existing roof-to-wall connectors often don’t meet current Florida Building Code for uplift resistance. A re-roof that looks straightforward becomes a structural upgrade when the inspector tags the connection. We identify this condition during our initial inspection, include the connector upgrade in the written scope, and pull the permit with the structural detail noted - no surprises after demo.

AfterCertainTeed Parts & Our Repair-vs-Replace Approach
We use OEM CertainTeed shingles and metal panels when color and profile match is critical, particularly for ARB compliance in Boca Raton’s gated communities where the wrong shade triggers a rejection. For fasteners, sealants, and underlayment, we use quality aftermarket components that meet or exceed Florida wind and salt-spray standards - often exceeding OEM spec because the coastal environment demands it.
Our repair-vs-replace decision is straightforward. We recommend full replacement when the CertainTeed system has failed across multiple roof planes or shows widespread granule loss exceeding 30% of the field. Localized fixes in those conditions rarely restore long-term performance in Boca Raton’s climate; the adjacent shingles are already compromised, and the thermal cycling will propagate the failure. For Certainteed service in Deerfield Beach, we apply the same evaluation standards. When the damage is isolated to one slope or a wind-lifted section, repair makes sense. We say so, and we write the scope either way. Call (754) 254-8065 for a free estimate - we’ll show you the photos and explain which column your roof falls into.
Our CertainTeed Service Process - Step by Step

- 1
Diagnosis with documentation. We inspect the CertainTeed assembly - shingles, metal panels, siding, or drywall - and photograph every condition: granule loss percentage, fastener pattern, underlayment integrity, moisture readings, substrate condition. You receive the photo record before we write the scope.
- 2
Written scope and flat price. Under Clause 1 of the Haven Standard, we deliver a written price before any work starts. The scope names every CertainTeed product and aftermarket component by brand and spec, including permit and inspection costs where applicable.
- 3
Repair or install with signed change-order discipline. If we find conditions not visible at inspection - rotted sheathing beneath Landmark shingles, for example - work stops until the change order is signed. No exceptions. This is the administrative discipline that keeps projects within a few percent of the agreed number.
- 4
Testing and verification. For roofing, we verify fastener pull-out resistance and document the wind mitigation features for your insurance discount. For AirRenew drywall, we record indoor RH and confirm it’s below 60% before final walkthrough.
- 5
Warranty and record delivery. You receive a written warranty, the final photo record, and permit closure documentation. The 365-Day Done Right Promise applies: if it’s not done right, we make it right.

FAQs - CertainTeed Construction Service in Boca Raton
Is Rowan Construction Group Boca Raton authorized by CertainTeed?
No. We are an independent CertainTeed service provider, not a manufacturer-authorized contractor. Our expertise comes from field experience with CertainTeed products across Palm Beach County since 2007, not from a dealer certification. We use OEM materials when the match matters and quality aftermarket components that meet Florida Building Code when they don’t.
Can you repair a CertainTeed Landmark roof that lost shingles in a storm without replacing the entire roof?
Yes, if the damage is isolated to one slope or section and the remaining shingles show acceptable granule retention and flexibility. We replace the blown-off Landmark shingles with matching stock, upgrade the underlayment at the repair perimeter, and test fastener pull-out resistance. If granule loss exceeds 30% field-wide or multiple planes are involved, we recommend full replacement because adjacent shingles are already compromised. Call (754) 254-8065 for a free inspection - we’ll show you the photos and give you both options in writing.
What is the best CertainTeed roofing system for Boca Raton’s salt air and hurricane codes?
Landmark IR or Presidio metal roofing, properly installed. Landmark IR carries a Class 4 impact rating and higher wind uplift resistance than standard Landmark; the IR designation matters for insurance discounts in Florida. Presidio metal, with stainless-steel fasteners and proper coastal detailing at cut edges, outperforms shingle assemblies in salt spray but requires stricter installation discipline. Both systems must include peel-and-stick underlayment and engineered roof-to-wall connectors to pass HVHZ inspection in Boca Raton.
How does CertainTeed AirRenew drywall perform in Boca Raton’s humidity?
It performs its air-purifying function only when indoor relative humidity stays below 60%. In Boca Raton’s climate, that requires proper envelope sealing, correctly sized HVAC, and sometimes supplemental dehumidification. We’ve removed AirRenew that developed surface mold because the home’s humidity control was inadequate - the product wasn’t defective, but the environment was wrong for it. We assess your home’s moisture load before recommending AirRenew installation.
Do you use OEM parts for CertainTeed roof repairs?
We use OEM CertainTeed shingles and metal panels when color and profile match is critical, particularly for ARB compliance. For fasteners, sealants, and underlayment, we use quality aftermarket components that meet or exceed Florida product approval standards - often exceeding OEM spec for coastal conditions. We name every component in the written scope so you know what you’re getting.
Is a CertainTeed Cedar Impressions siding failure covered under warranty if you are not authorized?
Manufacturer warranty coverage for product defects is between you and CertainTeed, regardless of who performs the repair. Our work is covered by our own 365-Day Done Right Promise and written workmanship warranty. If we find evidence of a product defect during repair, we document it and provide you the record to submit to CertainTeed directly. We do not process manufacturer claims on your behalf.
