CertainTeed Construction in Laguna Hills, CA | Moreno Valley Builders
We’re an independent CertainTeed service provider handling roof replacement and repair work across Laguna Hills, including the hillside lots in Nellie Gail Ranch and Moulton Ranch, and we also offer Lake Forest CertainTeed service nearby. What makes our CertainTeed work here different is simple: we know how these roofs fail on this terrain, because we’ve opened enough of them to see exactly what the slopes and low-pitch sections do to shingles over 20 or 30 years. If you’re planning a re-roof or repair, call (877) 752-3154 for a free estimate.
Why Laguna Hills Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
Laguna Hills isn’t a city where you can guess your way through a roofing project. Most of the homes here were built between the 1960s and 1980s, and a lot of them sit on hillside or canyon-edge lots where drainage and slope stability are part of every permit conversation. We specify CertainTeed Landmark shingles, Presidential Shake, and Monogram siding because these are proven products, but we also know their limits on these specific homes. Low-pitch roofs, wind-driven rain exposure, and original build-era decking all change how a CertainTeed system performs. Noel Trevino, our owner and general contractor, has spent nearly three decades fixing and re-roofing homes across Southern California, and he grew up in the trade learning what holds up and what doesn’t. We work across CertainTeed sales & service for the full system, not just a shingle swap.
We use genuine CertainTeed accessories, ridge vent, starter strip, and underlayment matched to the shingle system, because mixing brands is where callbacks start on hillside roofs. And we’re licensed as a General Contractor – Laguna Hills, so when a re-roof exposes rotted decking or a vent penetration that needs flashing work, we handle it without handing you off to another company.

Common CertainTeed Construction Problems We Solve in Laguna Hills
- Blistered and curling shingles on low-pitch roofs. A lot of 1960s and 70s Laguna Hills tract homes were built with flat or very low-pitch roof sections. CertainTeed Landmark shingles installed without high-temp underlayment and proper attic ventilation blister and curl at the eaves. We see it constantly on these houses, while steeper neighboring roofs stay intact.
- Lifted rake edges and ridge caps from wind-driven rain. Nellie Gail Ranch and Moulton Ranch hillside homes take more weather than the valley floor. The sealant strip on CertainTeed shingle tabs degrades faster under UV and debris, and the first big January storm peels the rake edges and ridge caps back. We replace them before water finds the deck.
- Corroded flashing and fastener back-out under field shingles. Many 1960s and 70s Laguna Hills homes still have original aluminum wiring and aging galvanized plumbing. When a remodel cut-in or re-roof penetration exposes the deck, we routinely find corroded flashing and backed-out fasteners under the CertainTeed field shingles. The deck needs repair before any new material goes down.
- Chalking and fading Monogram siding on south and west walls. CertainTeed Monogram vinyl siding holds up well, but on older tract homes where the original 1970s sheathing lacks a proper weather-resistive barrier, heat and moisture degrade the panel backing. We replace the siding and fix the underlying problem, not just the surface.
- Ridge cap delamination after the first heavy rain. This one is a Laguna Hills signature. Flat and low-pitch sections trap heat, the underlayment bakes out, and the ridge caps are the first thing to go when a storm hits. We address the ventilation and underlayment, not just the visible cap damage.
CertainTeed Service in Laguna Hills: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the thing about Laguna Hills that changes how CertainTeed work gets done here: the city is essentially built out. Incorporated in 1991 from Laguna Hills and portions of El Toro, there’s almost no greenfield construction left. Nearly every project we take on is a second-generation re-roof, a room addition, or a tear-down rebuild on an existing lot. That matters for CertainTeed work because the original roof assemblies on these homes were designed under a different set of assumptions. The City of Laguna Hills handles plan check locally, and on hillside lots around Nellie Gail Ranch and Moulton Ranch, the reviewers routinely require drainage and slope-stability answers before a permit issues. So our submittals pre-answer those questions on the CertainTeed roof and flashing details. We’ve done enough of them to know exactly what the plan checker is going to flag. If the details aren’t right on paper, they won’t be right in the wall.
On a 1970s Nellie Gail Ranch hillside home, our crew opened a CertainTeed Landmark roof to find the original low-pitch section had never been re-decked and the underlayment was baked through, with ridge caps lifting after the first January storm. We replaced the compromised sheathing, installed CertainTeed high-temp underlayment and new Landmark shingles with upgraded ridge vent, and the roof passed the City’s plan check without a drainage correction. That’s the kind of work this terrain requires, and it’s not something you’ll find on a generic roofing page.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Laguna Hills
We work with the full CertainTeed roofing and siding lines that fit Laguna Hills homes. On the asphalt shingle side, we specify CertainTeed Landmark architectural shingles for most re-roofs and CertainTeed Presidential Shake for homeowners who want a heavier, more dimensional profile on a custom or semi-custom home. For siding, CertainTeed Monogram vinyl is our go-to on these 1960s-to-1980s tract homes, and we also install CertainTeed AirRenew drywall on interior remodel scopes. Our parts approach is straightforward: we stock and use genuine CertainTeed accessories, ridge vent, starter strip, and underlayment matched to the shingle system. When a CertainTeed roof is ten to fifteen years old with isolated damage, we repair. When the deck or underlayment is compromised, we recommend a full tear-off rather than an overlay that hides the problem.

FAQs – CertainTeed Construction in Laguna Hills
Does Laguna Hills require a permit to re-roof with CertainTeed shingles, and does the hillside location change the process?
Yes, the City of Laguna Hills requires a building permit for a re-roof, and hillside lots in Nellie Gail Ranch or Moulton Ranch routinely trigger additional drainage and slope-stability review. We prepare the submittal to answer those questions up front. Call (877) 752-3154 for an exact quote.
My 1970s Laguna Hills home has original CertainTeed-era shingles over skip sheathing – can you overlay or do we need a tear-off?
On a 1970s tract home with skip sheathing, an overlay is the wrong fix. The deck gaps are why the roof is failing, and the City won’t sign off on new shingles over a compromised deck. We recommend a full tear-off, re-deck where needed, and a proper CertainTeed underlayment system. Estimates are free.
Will CertainTeed shingles hold up to the wind-driven rain on a Nellie Gail Ranch hillside roof?
CertainTeed Landmark shingles hold up well on hillside roofs when the deck, underlayment, and ventilation are correct. The failures we see on Nellie Gail Ranch homes are almost always deck or installation issues, not the shingle itself. We fix the system, not just the surface. Call (877) 752-3154 for a free estimate.
Can you match a CertainTeed roof replacement to the original look of my 1960s – 80s Laguna Hills tract home?
Yes. CertainTeed’s color lines include profiles and tones that read period-appropriate on these tract and semi-custom homes. We’ll match the shingle profile and color to the original as closely as the current product line allows, and we’ll tell you honestly where an exact match isn’t available.
Do you handle the interior remodel side too, or just CertainTeed roofing?
Both. We’re a full-scope general contractor, so we handle kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels, additions, and the roofing and siding on the same projects. That means one crew, one permit set, one point of accountability. For roofing or full interior work, call (877) 752-3154.
