CertainTeed Construction in Santa Ana, CA | Ashbury Contractors
We’re an independent CertainTeed service provider working across Santa Ana, from the 1920s bungalows west of Main to the 1950s tract homes east of the 55, and we also handle CertainTeed repair in North Tustin. The short version: we install and repair CertainTeed roofing and siding on older Santa Ana homes, and we know which products hold up under the city’s dry heat and namesake winds better than others. If you have a CertainTeed roof that’s losing granules or siding that’s warping on a pre-war cottage, we can tell you exactly why and what to do about it. Call (833) 467-4091 for a straight answer and a free estimate.
This page is for homeowners who need someone fluent in CertainTeed products and Santa Ana housing. Most contractors know one or the other. We work in both every week. For the full picture of our CertainTeed work beyond Santa Ana, see our CertainTeed sales & service page.
Why Santa Ana Residents Choose Us for CertainTeed Service
We’ve been specifying CertainTeed systems on Santa Ana’s older housing stock long enough to know what fails, what lasts, and what the city’s building department will flag. When we quote a Landmark PRO roof on a 1930s Craftsman in the 92701 ZIP, we already know the underlayment needs upgrading, the deck likely has uneven spots, and the historic district may require a specific color submittal. That’s not guesswork. It’s repetition.
Noel Quintero, who runs Ashbury Contractors, grew up off Red Hill Avenue in Tustin, where he started offering CertainTeed service, and spent two decades working residential and light commercial builds across central Orange County before landing on Santa Ana’s rehab-heavy market. His construction technology background from Santiago Canyon College shows up in how he diagnoses roof deck and ventilation problems before they compound. Build it right the first time or you’ll be explaining yourself twice. That’s how we approach every CertainTeed install and repair in Santa Ana.
We’re not a CertainTeed-authorized dealer or manufacturer affiliate. We’re an independent contractor, which means we recommend what’s right for your house, not what a brand program tells us to push. When CertainTeed is the best fit, we use it. When another product makes more sense for a specific Santa Ana condition, we say so.

Common CertainTeed Construction Problems We Solve in Santa Ana
- Landmark PRO granule loss on south and west slopes. Santa Ana’s intense UV combined with dry wind exposure wears the granule layer fast. We regularly see Landmark PRO shingles on those exposures showing surface cracking and bare spots after 10 to 12 years, years before the warranty would suggest. The fix is usually a full slope replacement with upgraded underlayment.
- Presidential Shake edge curling on raised-foundation bungalows. Original roof decks on 1920s and 1930s homes in 92701 and 92703 often lack modern attic ventilation. Heat builds up, the shingle mat stresses, and edges curl. We address the ventilation problem at the same time we replace the shingles, otherwise the new roof fails the same way.
- Cedar Impressions siding warping on settled pre-1950 cottages. When original sheathing has shifted over 80 years, polymer siding nailed too tight will show face-fastener pull-out and wave. We install with the expansion tolerances CertainTeed specifies and correct the substrate first.
- Ridge-vent clogging from Santa Ana dust. The dry season kicks up fine grit that settles into ridge-vent systems on the eastern foothill edges of Santa Ana. Clogged vents trap attic heat and age shingles prematurely. We include vent inspection and clearing on every repair call.
- Historic district compliance headaches. Homes in the downtown Santa Ana Historic District around 4th Street face design-review requirements that most roofers never mention until the permit gets held up. We handle the submittals and the paperwork before we order materials.
CertainTeed Service in Santa Ana: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s something you won’t read on a generic CertainTeed page: the downtown Santa Ana Historic District, roughly centered on 4th Street in 92701, enforces stricter design-review and historic-preservation rules than anywhere else in Orange County. A roof replacement two blocks inside the district can require material submittals, color approvals, and waiting periods that the same job two blocks outside would never trigger. That changes how we specify CertainTeed in Fountain Valley and Santa Ana alike. On a Craftsman bungalow near 4th and French, we tore off a failing Landmark PRO roof that had lost most of its granules on the west slope, upgraded the underlayment to a high-temp synthetic, added a CertainTeed ridge vent, and reinstalled Landmark PRO in a color the district approved, all in five days. The neighbor across the street, outside the district, had a different approval path entirely. If you live anywhere near downtown Santa Ana and you’re planning a roof, start the process early and let us handle the submittal work.
Beyond the historic rules, the city’s housing stock itself drives most of what we do. Santa Ana’s core ZIPs are packed with 1920s to 1950s California bungalows and early tract homes on raised foundations with detached garages. Those homes were built before modern roof ventilation standards existed, which is exactly why CertainTeed products like Presidential Shake fail the way they do here. You can’t just swap shingles and call it done. The system underneath has to be corrected too.
CertainTeed Models & Products We Service in Santa Ana
We install, repair, and replace the full CertainTeed roofing and siding lines most common on Santa Ana homes. That includes Landmark PRO asphalt shingles, Presidential Shake luxury shingles, Cedar Impressions polymer siding, and Symfony of the Seasons composite roofing. For full replacements, we use CertainTeed OEM shingles and accessories to keep the system warranty intact. For repairs, we stock high-quality aftermarket underlayments and fasteners that handle Santa Ana’s heat and wind better than some OEM equivalents. We’ll always tell you whether a repair is worth doing or whether the age and condition of the existing roof mean replacement is the smarter spend. Our Santa Ana service area page covers the neighborhoods we work in daily.

AfterCertainTeed Service Pricing in Santa Ana
CertainTeed work in Santa Ana costs what it costs because of the city’s older housing stock and permit realities, not because of markup games. Roof replacements on pre-1950 homes often include deck repairs, ventilation corrections, and historic-district submittals that tract-home roofs in newer parts of Orange County don’t require. When we quote, we line-item everything so you see exactly where the money goes. You’ll never get a change order because we missed something on the initial walkthrough.

FAQs – CertainTeed Construction in Santa Ana
If your home sits in the downtown Santa Ana Historic District around 4th Street in 92701, the city’s design-review board can restrict shingle color, profile, and material to match the home’s original architecture. We handle the submittal paperwork and specify CertainTeed products that meet district guidelines before we order anything. Call (833) 467-4091 and we can check whether your address falls inside the district.
It’s the combination of intense sun on south and west exposures and the dry Santa Ana winds that scour the granule layer. We typically see accelerated granule loss and surface cracking after 10 to 12 years on those slopes, well before the warranty period ends. Proper underlayment and ventilation slow the process considerably.
It depends on the age of the roof and how widespread the edge curling is. A few lifted shingles can be re-secured and sealed. Curling across most of the roof with nail-pull on the deck usually means the underlying ventilation problem was never fixed and replacement makes more sense. We’ll give you an honest assessment either way.
For detached garage conversions and ADUs on Santa Ana lots, Landmark PRO is the practical choice for most budgets and city requirements. If the structure is visible from the street or the property falls in a design-review area, we may recommend Presidential Shake for the architectural match. Pricing depends on the roof size and deck condition.
Cedar Impressions holds up well in Santa Ana’s dry climate when installed correctly, but on pre-1950 cottages with settled, uneven sheathing, the siding can warp or show face-fastener pull-out if it’s nailed too tight. We correct the substrate and follow CertainTeed’s expansion tolerances, which most installers skip. Get a free inspection at (833) 467-4091.
