AfterCertainTeed Construction in Delray Beach, CA | Barrett & Sons Construction
We provide independent CertainTeed service across Delray Beach, from Century Village villas in the western ZIPs to oceanfront rebuilds on the barrier island. The one thing that makes our CertainTeed work here different is that we’ve already pulled permits on Atlantic Avenue, where the city’s own design review board can reject a roof that Palm Beach County wind codes approved. We’re not manufacturer-affiliated, but we know these products inside and out, and we answer our own phone at (877) 610-1318.
Why Delray Beach Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
Tom Barrett started this company in 1998, and he’s been running crews across Delray Beach long enough to know which CertainTeed products hold up on a CBS ranch in 33484 and which ones fail three blocks off the ocean in 33483. Our people have torn into hundreds of CertainTeed roofs and siding jobs, and we stock the components that keep warranty coverage intact. If something goes sideways, we don’t hide behind a call center. Tom lives close enough that a bad roof job would follow him to the hardware store, and that’s a motivator no franchise contract can replicate.
When you call us about a CertainTeed roof, you’re not talking to a dispatcher. You’re talking to someone who has carried Landmark bundles up a ladder in August and knows exactly what salt spray does to shingle sealant strips on the barrier island. We carry CertainTeed sales & service expertise that comes from doing the work, not reading a spec sheet.
Common CertainTeed Construction Problems We Solve in Delray Beach
- Landmark shingle sealant failure on the barrier island. The 33483 ZIP sits in salt spray and gets hammered with thermal cycling, and we regularly see sealant strips that have lost adhesion. Tabs lift, then a 140 mph gust from a summer storm peels whole sections. We inspect for this before recommending a full replacement or a targeted repair.
- Presidential Shake traps wind-driven rain on older CBS homes. That thicker profile looks great, but on western ZIP homes with original 1980s sheathing, Atlantic Avenue microbursts push water under the tabs and saturate the deck. The roof looks fine from the street until the ceiling stains show up.
- Cedar Impressions panels cracking at nail slots. On 1980s planned communities in 33484 and 33446, contractors over-drove fasteners against fascia boards with no drip edge. Panels crack, moisture gets behind them, and the damage spreads. We replace panels and correct the fastener pattern.
- MemBrain vapor retarder failing in slab-on-grade kitchens. Delray Beach has a water table sitting 18 to 24 inches below grade in much of the western ZIPs. When MemBrain goes in around recessed lighting without proper sealing, humidity from the slab pushes through and the vapor barrier stops being a barrier. We see this in kitchen remodels all the time.
- Wrong underlayment voiding wind warranties. On a teardown rebuild off Seagate Drive, our crew pulled a failed CertainTeed Landmark roof where the last contractor used cheap underlayment. We stripped to bare deck, added a secondary water barrier, and reset 160 mph-rated Landmark with full starter strips. The inspector signed off with zero corrections because we coordinated with the wind-load engineer before we pulled the permit.
CertainTeed Service in Delray Beach: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s something Certainteed repair in Boca Raton won’t tell you until it’s too late: Delray Beach’s Atlantic Avenue entertainment corridor falls under the city’s Central Business District design guidelines, which prohibit certain roof profiles and materials within the historic core. That means a CertainTeed standing seam metal roof that sails through in Boca can get red-tagged by Delray’s Site Plan Review and Appearance Board. Contractors who don’t know this pull a permit, start work, and then hit a wall. We pre-coordinate with the board before we submit, because we’ve already done that dance enough times to know the steps. A roof that meets Palm Beach County’s 160 to 170 mph design wind speed is not automatically a roof that passes Delray’s own design review.
This dual layer of regulation filters out the less experienced outfits. And it’s exactly why homeowners who live near the corridor should ask any contractor whether they’ve actually completed a project under the CBG guidelines, not just county code.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Delray Beach
We service the full line you’ll see on Delray Beach homes: Landmark shingles, Presidential Shake, Cedar Impressions siding, and MemBrain vapor retarder. For warranty-critical roofing jobs, we use genuine CertainTeed components: shingle bundles, starter strips, and ridge caps. Mixing aftermarket hip-and-ridge or underlayment voids CertainTeed’s own wind warranty, and we won’t do that to a customer just to shave a few dollars. For non-structural siding or trim, we’ll recommend a quality aftermarket equivalent only when the homeowner explicitly wants the savings and understands what they’re giving up in weather resistance.
CertainTeed Service Pricing in Delray Beach

FAQs - CertainTeed Construction in Delray Beach
Can I put a CertainTeed standing seam metal roof on my new home in the 33483 barrier island zone?
Yes, standing seam metal is one of the better choices for the coastal construction zone because it handles wind loads well and meets the elevated wind-speed requirements. But if your lot falls within or near the Coastal Construction Control Line, plan for a state-level DEP review that can add four to eight weeks to the timeline. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll check your specific address before you commit.
Why did my CertainTeed Landmark shingles blow off during last summer’s storm when neighbors with the same shingles were fine?
Nine times out of ten on Delray Beach homes, it’s the sealant strips. Salt spray and repeated thermal cycling weaken the adhesive until the tabs lose their bond. Your neighbors may have had newer shingles, a different underlayment, or proper starter strips that yours lacked. We’ll inspect the entire roof and tell you what actually failed before you spend money on another full replacement.
Does CertainTeed’s warranty cover wind damage on my Century Village villa roof?
CertainTeed’s wind warranty kicks in only if the roof was installed with their full system: starter strips, ridge caps, and the approved underlayment. If any component was swapped for an aftermarket part, the manufacturer can deny the claim. That’s exactly why we won’t cut that corner on a Delray Beach roof. Call us at (877) 610-1318 and we’ll review what you have before you file a claim.
Should I replace my 1980s CertainTeed three-tab shingle roof before doing Delray Beach Kitchen Remodeling in my 33446 home?
Yes. If the roof is nearing the end of its life and you’re about to open walls and install new cabinets, doing the roof first keeps demolition dust and rain exposure from wrecking the new work. It also means you won’t be tearing into a new kitchen later to fix a leak that started above it. We sequence roof and our Bathroom Remodeling in Delray Beach together all the time in the 33446 and 33484 ZIPs.
What’s the most common CertainTeed siding failure you see on Delray Beach ranch homes?
Cedar Impressions panels cracking at the nail slots. It’s almost always on 1980s-era homes where the original installer over-drove the fasteners against fascia with no drip edge. The crack lets moisture in and the panel starts to bow. We replace the damaged panels and correct the fastener spacing so it doesn’t happen again. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free siding inspection.
