CertainTeed Construction in Clovis, CA | Elmstead Remodeling Fresno
As a Clovis General Contractor, we provide independent CertainTeed roofing, siding, and gutter service across Clovis, from the older streets near Old Town to newer subdivisions east of Clovis Avenue. What makes our CertainTeed work different here is simple: we know how Clovis’s design review rules and clay soil shape every re-roof and siding call. We’re a locally based crew, not a manufacturer affiliate, and we answer the phone at (559) 540-8453 every time. If you need CertainTeed work in Clovis, that’s the number to call for a written price and a straight answer.
Why Clovis Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
CertainTeed makes dependable roofing and siding, but the installer’s local knowledge is what determines whether that material holds up on a Clovis roof. Our crews have worked on CertainTeed Landmark shingles and Cedar Impressions siding across Clovis’s mix of housing stock. We’ve torn off sun-baked shingles on a 1970s ranch near Old Town. We’ve re-sided newer homes in the subdivisions where Mediterranean rooflines meet triple-digit summers. That range means we don’t guess when we look at your CertainTeed system. We know what the Clovis sun does to a south-facing slope, and we know what the city’s design review will ask before a permit is issued.
Graham Stein, our owner, has been in this trade for twenty-six years. He learned plan reading and construction technology at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College, and he’s run our Fresno area crews long enough to know that older Clovis homes with plaster walls and settled foundations don’t forgive a careless lap joint. He writes every scope of work down before any tools come off the truck. That habit is the reason our Clovis jobs stay priced the way they were quoted.
We use original CertainTeed components when matching an existing roof or siding profile, and we stock common flashing and accessory pieces locally for faster Clovis turnaround. We’re independent, not manufacturer-affiliated. That means our advice about what to repair and what to replace comes from the roof, not from a quota.
Every Clovis project gets the Cedarwell Care Promise: shoe covers and drop cloths inside the house, quiet tools during family rest hours where possible, pet-safe product choices where available, and a photo of the clean-up before the crew leaves. A written price comes before any work starts on your CertainTeed service in Clovis.

Common CertainTeed Construction Problems We Solve in Clovis
- Sun-baked Landmark shingles losing granules and curling. After ten-plus Clovis summers with triple-digit heat, south-facing slopes often show heavy granule loss and curling at the shingle edges. We find this most on homes built in the 1990s and 2000s, where Landmark shingles have passed the halfway point of their life. Repair is possible when the deck is sound; full replacement is the honest call when it isn’t.
- Cedar Impressions siding panels warping or pulling away from framing. Clovis’s hot, dry air causes thermal expansion. Older Cedar Impressions panels can warp and gap, leaving seams open to moisture. Repainting won’t fix it. The panels need to come down, the framing checked, and either the originals reinstalled correctly or quality matched replacements put up.
- WinterGuard underlayment degraded under tile or metal roofing. Wet winters in Clovis are mild, but moisture intrusion through old underlayment causes deck rot and interior leaks. We often find WinterGuard that looks fine from above but has lost adhesion at the eaves. Replacing it correctly means pulling the roof covering back at the edges, not smearing tar over the problem.
- FlintBoard insulation settled or chewed by rodents. Older Clovis homes near Old Town have crawlspaces and attic runs where FlintBoard has settled away from rafters or been damaged by pests. The result is poor thermal performance and higher cooling bills in July and August. We pull the old board, repair the damaged openings, and put in new material that stays where it’s put.
- Gutters pulling loose or overflowing during winter rains. Clovis’s clay soil holds water, and a gutter that isn’t sloped or fastened right sends roof runoff straight to the foundation. We re-pitch and re-hang gutters, and we install leaf protection where neighbors have mature trees dropping debris year-round.
CertainTeed Service in Clovis: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s what makes Clovis genuinely different from Fresno, Sanger, or any neighboring town. Clovis requires re-roofing projects to match the existing roof profile and material unless a design review exception is granted. That rule exists to preserve the “Clovis Way of Life” aesthetic standards, and it directly shapes every CertainTeed replacement we do in town. On a 2000s-era home in the Harlan Ranch subdivision, our crew replaced a failed CertainTeed Landmark roof after we found widespread granule loss and a soft deck under a leaking valley. We installed a new Landmark system with WinterGuard at the eaves and upgraded the damaged gutters to match the home’s ranch profile. That’s the job done right: the same architectural lines the original builder drew, with a roof system built for the next two decades of Clovis heat.
The clay soil angle is just as real. Many Clovis neighborhoods developed in the 1970s and 1980s sit on expansive clay that swells with winter moisture and dries hard in summer. That movement doesn’t just crack driveways. It shifts exterior walls enough to open small gaps in siding laps, and it can pull gutters out of alignment so water dumps at the corners instead of the downspouts. When we inspect a CertainTeed siding or gutter problem in Clovis, we’re checking the ground movement, not just the surface symptom. A repair that ignores that will look fine for a few months and fail again.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Clovis
Our Clovis crews work on four CertainTeed product lines regularly: Landmark asphalt shingles, Cedar Impressions siding, WinterGuard waterproofing underlayment, and FlintBoard insulation. For repairs, we match existing profiles with original CertainTeed components so the warranty and color consistency hold. When a line has been discontinued or color availability is limited, we source quality aftermarket equivalents and tell you exactly what we’re using and why. We keep common flashing, underlayment roll stock, and gutter hardware stocked locally so a Clovis inspection visit can often be followed by the repair in the same week. We recommend repair when the deck or underlayment is sound. We recommend full replacement when a CertainTeed system has aged past mid-life in Clovis’s heat. That’s the honest position, and it’s the one we give on every estimate.

AfterCertainTeed Service Pricing in Clovis
The cost of CertainTeed work in Clovis depends on what needs doing and the condition of the decking, framing, and underlayment underneath. Here are the price ranges we work from on Clovis projects:

|---|---|
| Roof Replacement | $8,000 – $20,000 |
| Roof Repair | $400 – $1,800 |
| Gutters & Accessories | Quoted per job after inspection |
A roof replacement on a larger Clovis home with a complex roofline and full tear-off will land higher in that range. A simple repair on a valley or pipe boot lands lower. Every estimate we write for Clovis includes the full scope in writing before any work starts. We don’t hand you a number and then revise it once the roof is open. Call (559) 540-8453 for a free estimate on your CertainTeed project, and we’ll send a crew out to look at the actual condition, not a satellite image.

FAQs – CertainTeed Construction in Clovis
South-facing slopes in Clovis take direct sun all summer, and triple-digit heat bakes the asphalt in Landmark shingles, accelerating granule loss and making the tabs curl. We see it most on homes built in the 1990s and 2000s where the original roof is now past its midpoint. Replacing the shingles before leaks start is always cheaper than replacing rotted decking later. Call (559) 540-8453 if you’re seeing granules in your gutters or curling on the sunny side.
Sometimes, but not always. Cedar Impressions panels that haven’t warped or pulled away can often be carefully removed and reinstalled during Bathroom Remodeling in Clovis or a partial remodel, as long as the original profile is still available. In Clovis’s dry heat, if the panels have already warped, reusing them risks leaving gaps. We check each panel and give you a straight answer on what’s reusable and what should go.
Yes, in almost every case. WinterGuard loses adhesion over time, even under tile that looks fine from the ground. Clovis’s winter rains may be brief, but the moisture gets through the tile joints. If the underlayment is degraded, the deck below it rots. We always install new WinterGuard whenever we re-tile or re-shingle a roof in Clovis. Skipping it saves a little on paper and costs far more when the first rain comes.
Homes near Old Town in Clovis often have settled FlintBoard insulation in attics and crawlspaces, and we frequently find rodent damage where the material has been chewed back. The fix is to remove the damaged board, repair access points, and install new insulation that fits the original framing. The difference in heating and cooling bills on one of those older Clovis homes is noticeable within the first season. Call (559) 540-8453 for an inspection and a written quote.
Clovis sits on expansive clay in many neighborhoods developed in the 1970s and 1980s. That soil moves when moisture levels change, and the movement can open small gaps in siding laps and pull gutters out of slope. We check the foundation and wall movement when we inspect siding and gutter problems in Clovis, because a repair that ignores the soil will just open up again. The free estimate includes that fuller look at what’s causing the problem.
