CertainTeed Construction in Mountain View, CA | San Mateo Construction
We provide independent CertainTeed installation and repair across Mountain View as San Mateo Construction, a General Contractor – Mountain View led by Noel Carrington. What makes our CertainTeed work different here is that we build around Mountain View’s inspection holds and clay-soil drainage issues, not just the shingle spec. We install Landmark PRO, Presidential Solaris, CedarBoards, and EverNew with system-matched accessories, and we’re one call at (855) 901-7266.
Why Mountain View Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
CertainTeed makes good roofing and siding. What matters in Mountain View is whether the contractor knows how those products behave on a 1958 rancher in 94041 with a low-slope roof and a downspout that dumps winter rain beside the foundation. That’s what Noel Carrington and our crews track. Noel grew up in the Baywood neighborhood of San Mateo a few blocks from Coyote Point, pouring concrete with his father on weekends, and he’s spent three decades since on residential jobs across San Mateo County. He’s the one who walks your roof with the CertainTeed installation guide in his head, checking ventilation math against what the attic actually has, not what a spec sheet assumes.
We stock CertainTeed starter strips, ridge vent, and fasteners for the common profiles in Mountain View, so a repair quote lands based on what’s actually on your roof. When a Landmark PRO roof under 15 years old has isolated storm damage, we repair. When granule loss or underlayment failure is widespread, we’ll tell you replacement is the honest move. For broader project scope, we also handle the full construction picture through our CertainTeed sales & service approach: one contract, one accountable team, from roofline to foundation.

Common CertainTeed Construction Problems We Solve in Mountain View
- Landmark PRO granule loss and nail pops on older low-slope roofs. Mountain View’s 1950s and 60s ranchers in 94040 and 94041 often have undersized attic ventilation, especially after insulation upgrades. Heat builds, the shingle mat overheats, and granule loss follows. We fix the ventilation first, then the shingles.
- CedarBoards edge swelling near grade. The clay-heavy soils in Mountain View hold winter moisture, and downspouts that discharge beside foundations make the bottom course of siding wick water. Paint fails along the edge, the board swells, and rot starts where you can’t see it. We regrade the discharge point and replace the course above new flashing.
- Presidential Solaris algae streaking on north-facing slopes. The damp, mild winter climate here means north slopes stay shaded and damp for weeks. If someone pressure-washed the roof and stripped the copper-infused granules, algae moves in. The fix is a careful cleaning and spot replacement of compromised shingles.
- EverNew decking checking and fastener pull-through. Full-sun Mountain View backyards bake a deck hard, and on older decks the joists often exceed CertainTeed’s spacing spec. Ply someone’s 1980s framing against new EverNew boards and you’ll get surface checking. We re-frame where needed before the decking goes down.
- Unpermitted past additions stalling new work. In older 94041 blocks, we routinely find additions that were never permitted, with wiring or structural shortcuts buried inside. CertainTeed roofing or siding on top of that won’t pass inspection until the as-built is resolved. We sequence our work around those holds instead of pretending they don’t exist.
CertainTeed Service in Mountain View: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Because Mountain View’s 94041 blocks hold unpermitted past additions and aging knob-and-tube or early aluminum wiring, our CertainTeed roof and siding installs routinely have to wait on as-built resolutions before the city will approve a second-story rebuild. That’s not a delay we cause; it’s a city requirement, and it’s specific to the older residential fabric of this city. A roof tear-off on a 1958 rancher off Castro Street in 94041 isn’t just shingle work. During one deck inspection we found knob-and-tube wiring and a rotted fascia hidden behind CedarBoards siding, which had to be remediated before the city would sign off on the second-story addition above. We upgraded to Landmark PRO with a system-matched ridge vent, replaced the bottom course of siding above new flashing, and the final inspection cleared without a re-visit. Tell me what you actually need, and we’ll figure out the right way to build it.
That inspection environment also means material sequencing matters more than drive time for Home Remodeling – Mountain View. We deliver CertainTeed shingles and siding around inspection holds, not just the framing schedule. Contractors who don’t work Mountain View every week get caught with stacks of material on site and a stop-work order. We don’t. If you’re in Mountain View and the scope involves a roof, siding, or deck tied to an addition, we work the same way: permit-savvy, sequence-conscious, and clear about what the city will require before we start.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Mountain View
We install and service Landmark PRO architectural shingles, Presidential Solaris shingles, CedarBoards siding, and EverNew decking in Mountain View. We use CertainTeed OEM accessories: starter strips, ridge vent, and fasteners, because the wind ratings and warranty language are tied to system-matched components. Where CertainTeed doesn’t supply a part, like certain flashing profiles, we source quality aftermarket metal that meets the same spec. For decking, we follow CertainTeed’s joist spacing exactly, which on older Mountain View decks often means re-framing before the EverNew boards go down. We also install tile roofing and metal roofing through the same brand-informed approach, so a tile-to-metal conversion on a Mountain View rebuild gets one crew that understands both the brand and the city.

FAQs – CertainTeed Construction in Mountain View
Yes. CertainTeed’s warranty language requires installation by a licensed contractor, and Mountain View’s city inspection process will verify that the permit holder is properly licensed. We’re a licensed general contractor in good standing, and we pull permits for every CertainTeed roof, siding, and decking job in Mountain View. Call (855) 901-7266 and we’ll walk through what the city will ask for on your specific block.
It depends on the actual slope and the deck condition. Landmark PRO architectural shingles are approved down to 2:12 pitch with the right underlayment, but many 1950s Mountain View roofs near that threshold need a closer look at the deck and ventilation before we’ll say yes. We won’t install where the manufacturer says no. If your home is in Mountain View and needs this answered, call (855) 901-7266 and we’ll inspect the roof.
Winter rain saturates Mountain View’s clay-heavy soil, and downspouts discharging beside foundations push moisture back into the bottom course of CedarBoards siding. That’s how edge swelling and paint failure start. Our fix is mechanical: we correct the discharge point, install proper flashing, and replace only the affected courses. If you’re seeing peeling paint at the bottom of your siding in Mountain View, call (855) 901-7266 for a look.
If your Presidential Solaris roof has isolated damage or algae streaking on one slope, repair usually makes sense and costs $600 – $2,500 depending on scope. When granule loss is widespread or the underlayment has failed, replacement becomes the honest recommendation, and it runs $8,000 – $20,000. Every roof tells you which: call (855) 901-7266 and we’ll give you a straight read.
It depends on the scope and the existing permit. If the deck is being rebuilt as part of a permitted addition, the decking typically rides under the same permit. If it’s a standalone deck rebuild, Mountain View will want its own permit. We handle both through our general contracting license, so you’re not juggling separate filings, whether in Mountain View or with CertainTeed in Los Altos Hills. Call (855) 901-7266 and we’ll check your project against the current city requirements.
