The Landmark reputation
Landmark is one of the most widely installed architectural shingles in America, with a dimensional profile and color depth homeowners consistently love.
Shingle Manufacturer
CertainTeed shingles, backed by a century of building science
CertainTeed has been making building materials for more than a hundred years, and its Landmark line is one of the most trusted architectural shingles in the country. For homeowners who want heavy-duty options — including Class 4 impact-resistant shingles — CertainTeed is one of our first recommendations.
Why we install CertainTeed shingles
Class 4 impact-resistant options
NorthGate is an SBS-modified shingle built to resist hail strikes — a smart choice for North Texas, and one many insurance carriers reward with premium discounts.
Weight and substance
CertainTeed's premium lines run heavier than many competitors, and that extra material shows up in deeper shadow lines and a richer finished roof.
Strong color technology
Max Def color technology delivers richer, more varied granule blends so the roof reads like natural slate or shake rather than flat asphalt.
CertainTeed shingle lines we install
Landmark
The flagship. A dual-layer architectural shingle that balances durability, curb appeal, and value — the shingle we install most often from the CertainTeed lineup.
Landmark PRO
A beefed-up Landmark with a heavier weight and Max Def colors for a richer, more dimensional look on prominent rooflines.
NorthGate
An SBS-modified asphalt shingle engineered for flexibility and Class 4 impact resistance — built for hail country like ours.
Highland Slate
A lightweight shingle with the textured look of natural slate, well suited to homes whose framing shouldn't carry a heavier roof.
Grand Manor
A luxury designer shingle with deep shadow lines and a handcrafted, turn-of-the-century look for homes that want a statement roof.
XT 25
A dependable, budget-conscious three-tab shingle for garages, additions, and homes where straightforward value wins.
CertainTeed is the line we recommend when a homeowner wants to step up in weight and weather resistance. The Landmark family covers most homes beautifully, and NorthGate answers the hail question that comes up on just about every roof we quote in Tarrant County.
We'll bring physical samples to your free inspection so you can see the color blends in your own daylight — roof colors look very different on your roof than they do on a website.
Straight answers about CertainTeed shingles
What homeowners ask us before choosing CertainTeed.
What is SBS-modified asphalt — and why does NorthGate matter in Texas?
SBS-modified asphalt stays rubbery and flexible instead of turning brittle, so it absorbs hail impacts rather than cracking. NorthGate carries a Class 4 impact rating — the highest classification for impact resistance — and many insurance carriers offer premium discounts for Class 4 roofs. Check with your carrier for the specifics of your policy.
Landmark vs. Landmark PRO — what's the difference?
Landmark PRO carries more asphalt per shingle, a longer track record of durability ratings, and Max Def granule blends with richer color variation. If your roofline is visible from the street — most in our older Fort Worth neighborhoods are — the PRO's depth is worth a look.
Do impact-resistant shingles lower my insurance?
Possibly, and it's worth the phone call. Carriers that reward impact-resistant roofing typically require documentation of the Class 4 rating, which we provide with every NorthGate installation. Discount amounts vary by carrier and county, so confirm with your agent before you commit.
