CertainTeed Roofing in Redondo Beach, CA | Sunridge Roof Repair
We’re an independent roofing shop that services CertainTeed shingle and metal systems all over Redondo Beach, from the beach blocks of 90277 up to the tract streets of 90278, and we also handle CertainTeed in Palos Verdes Estates. The one thing that separates our CertainTeed work here: we treat every roof in this city as a coastal installation, because the salt air coming off the South Bay is harder on flashing and fasteners than almost anywhere else in Los Angeles County. If your CertainTeed roof is showing its age, call us at (833) 589-5180 and we’ll inspect it before we recommend anything.
Why Redondo Beach Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
CertainTeed makes a genuinely broad product line, and we’ve installed and repaired most of it: Landmark architectural shingles, Presidential Shake, Xtreme Weather, and their standing seam profiles. We know how these systems behave after five or ten years of marine-layer exposure, not just how they read on a spec sheet. Ruben Ochoa, our owner, trained through the building and construction program at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College and has spent well over a decade on roofs across the South Bay and Southeast LA. He built Sunridge around one principle: inspect first, recommend second. If it needs fixing, we’ll tell you what and why. If it doesn’t, we’ll tell you that too. We’re not an authorized CertainTeed dealer, and we won’t pretend to be. We’re an independent CertainTeed sales & service shop that specs their products honestly because we’ve watched them perform in real Redondo Beach conditions.

Common CertainTeed Roofing Problems We Solve in Redondo Beach
- Black algae streaking on north-facing slopes. The marine layer that keeps Redondo Beach summers mild also keeps north-facing roof planes damp well into the afternoon. CertainTeed Landmark shingles here develop algae streaks faster than inland, especially on the blocks west of Pacific Coast Highway in 90277. It’s rarely a leak, but it’s almost always ugly, and it’s a sign the roof is holding moisture longer than it should.
- Rusted fasteners and pitted flashing on beach-close blocks. Chloride-laden air from the ocean attacks galvanized nails and step flashing aggressively. We routinely pull shingles on 1950s tract homes in 90277 and find the nail heads rusted down to nothing while the shingle itself still has years left. The coastal repair conversation here is usually about flashing and fasteners, not the shingle.
- Unsealed or re-opened shingle tabs after winter storms. CertainTeed Xtreme Weather and Presidential systems get nailed off fine, but constant onshore wind-driven rain stresses their factory sealant strips. On exposed two-story townhome elevations, we find tabs that never fully sealed or popped loose after a series of winter fronts, which lets wind-driven rain get under the field.
- Leaks at pop-up additions and second-story tie-ins. Much of Redondo Beach’s housing stock was built out in the 1950s and 60s, and a lot of it has been added onto since. The shingle-to-flashing transitions at sidewalls and chimney chases on those additions are the first place wind-driven rain finds a gap, especially where the original fascia has gone soft.
- Low-pitch tract roof issues in 90278. Shallow-slope roofs east of the beach hold moisture along the eave line and in valleys. That promotes moss growth, and on CertainTeed Landmark installations it accelerates granule loss right along the water path. We see this most often on the 1960s tract homes between Aviation Boulevard and the 405.
CertainTeed Service in Redondo Beach: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the thing most roofing pages won’t tell you about Redondo Beach: on the blocks closest to the ocean in 90277, CertainTeed roofs show pitted galvanized flashing and rusted fastener heads within about ten years, while the shingles themselves still have life left. We’ve seen it over and over on the streets west of Catalina Avenue. The shingle will look fine from the curb. The flashing won’t. That’s the salt-air corridor at work. The marine layer and onshore breeze carry chloride-laden moisture that attacks metal roof components much faster than it would a few miles inland in Torrance or Gardena. So when a Redondo Beach homeowner calls us about a ceiling stain or a suspicious drip near a sidewall, our inspection starts with the flashing and the fasteners, not the shingle. On a 1950s low-pitch tract home near the beach, our tech pulled back a field of Landmark shingles above a leaking sidewall and found the galvanized step flashing pitted through and the nail heads rusted to nubs. We re-flashed the tie-in with corrosion-rated metal, replaced the fastener-rotted courses, and re-nailed with stainless. The shingles had years left. The flashing didn’t. The client stopped chasing the ceiling stain. That’s the difference between diagnosing a Redondo Beach roof and guessing at one.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Redondo Beach
We service the full CertainTeed residential line: Landmark, Landmark Pro, Landmark TL, Presidential Shake, Presidential Solaris, Xtreme Weather, and their standing seam and metal shingle profiles. For partial replacements that need color and profile continuity, we use CertainTeed-branded shingles, starter, and accessory flashing. But we won’t spec certain CertainTeed accessories in this city as-is. Their standard galvanized vent boots and step flashing don’t survive Redondo’s salt air, so we substitute corrosion-rated stainless or hot-dip galvanized aftermarket flashing and fasteners where it matters. If you need a quick repair and we don’t have your profile on the truck, we can typically source it within the week. For the most common Landmark colors used across 90277 and 90278, we keep popular stock on hand.

AfterCertainTeed Service Pricing in Redondo Beach
What you’ll pay depends on what’s actually wrong, not on a number we throw out before we’ve been on the roof. A simple flashing repair on a beach-close 90277 home might run a few hundred dollars in labor and materials. A partial shingle replacement to match existing CertainTeed Landmark color and profile runs more. A full re-flash at a second-story tie-in costs more still. The honest answer is that we won’t quote you over the phone without looking, and we won’t quote you at all until we’ve diagnosed the problem. Every estimate we give is free, and every repair or replacement recommendation comes with a written line-item breakdown. If the roof can be repaired instead of replaced, that’s what we’ll recommend. Call (833) 589-5180 to schedule a free estimate, and we’ll tell you exactly what you’re looking at.

FAQs – CertainTeed Roofing in Redondo Beach
Almost certainly not. Those streaks are algae, and they’re extremely common on Redondo Beach roofs because the marine layer keeps north-facing slopes damp. The streaks don’t mean water is getting into your home, but they do mean your roof is holding moisture longer than it should. We can clean and treat the affected plane, and we’ll inspect the penetrations while we’re up there. Call (833) 589-5180 if you want us to take a look.
Because the shingles and the flashing are made of different materials, and salt air destroys galvanized metal fast. The chloride-laden marine air on Redondo Beach’s beach blocks pits and corrodes standard galvanized flashing and fastener heads within about ten years, while the asphalt shingle itself keeps protecting the roof deck. In 90277, this is the single most common reason for leaks on CertainTeed roofs. We replace the corroded flashing with corrosion-rated stainless or hot-dip galvanized material, and we re-nail with stainless fasteners. We also provide CertainTeed repair in Lawndale. Call (833) 589-5180 for a flashing inspection.
Yes. For partial replacement work, we use CertainTeed-branded shingles in the same profile and color so the repair doesn’t look like a patch. We also match the accessory flashing where continuity matters. If your specific color has been discontinued or your roof has faded significantly from years of Redondo Beach sun, we’ll tell you that too and walk you through your options before any work starts.
CertainTeed Landmark shingles perform fine on low-pitch roofs as long as the installation is right and the underlayment and ventilation are adequate. The issue on Redondo Beach’s 1950s and 60s tract homes isn’t usually the shingle. It’s moisture retention along the eave line and in valleys, which feeds moss and accelerates granule loss. We’ll inspect the pitch, the underlayment, and the venting before we recommend any shingle work. Call (833) 589-5180 and we’ll be straight with you about what your roof needs.
Xtreme Weather shingles are designed for high-wind zones, and their tab design helps. But no shingle’s sealant strip is bulletproof against Redondo Beach’s persistent onshore wind-driven rain, especially on exposed two-story elevations that face west. We find tabs that never sealed properly or re-opened after winter storms more often on townhome elevations than anywhere else. If wind-driven rain is getting under your tabs, the fix may be resealing, re-nailing, or replacing specific courses rather than a full re-roof. Call (833) 589-5180 for an exact assessment.
