Products Installed: CertainTeed LandMark Pro Weathered Wood Shingles
Dennison Exterior Solutions as roofing contractors in Baroda Michigan was hired to replace this 10 to 12 year old roof due to a failure of the previous contractor to install proper ventilation which caused the shingles to age drastically prematurely. There had been a leak around chimney as well. There were numerous signs of leaks on the roof, fasteners lifting the shingles up, shingle blow off with exposed fasteners. The dormers roof on this home was less than a 3/12 pitch which required us to install CertainTeed’s self-adhered Flintastic granulated commercial grade roll roofing along with its base sheet. The beauty of this product is that no fasteners are required to apply this material. The base sheet is essentially a super-ice and water shield that is much thicker than normal ice shield but also has a special system that has a chemical reaction with the bottom of the granulated cap sheet that allows the two products to adhere to each other.
As roofing contractors in Baroda Michigan Dennison Exterior Solutions specializes in the installation of Lifetime Warranty (50 Year Warranty) Shingles that includes a 50 Year 100% Transferable Labor & Material Warranty backed by CertainTeed without any Prorating during the life of the shingles.

Underlayments:
Dennison Exterior Solutions Winter Guard Ice & Water Shield
Dennison Exterior Solutions & CertainTeed’s WinterGuard waterproofing shingle underlayment is the solution for winning the battle against water penetration in your roof’s most vulnerable places. WinterGuard is a composite material of asphalt polymers, formed into a rolled sheet. The asphalt makes it vapor-tight, and the polymers make the asphalt elastic and sticky. This protective barrier is able to stretch and seal around nails driven through it. Placing WinterGuard a minimum of 24″ past the interior wall line at the eave provides your first line of defense.
Dennison Exterior Solutions installs Winter Guard six feet up the roofline from all eave edges, where all lower roofs meet any walls and around all roof ‘ shingle penetrations such as furnace / water heater vent stacks, soil pipes, chimneys, antenna satellite fasteners, skylights and any other protrusions through the roof. This process eliminates all potential future call-backs.
Dennison’s Winter Guard seals the roof against infiltration of water into the home due to ice dams and wind-driven rain that also seals water-tight around each nail that is driven through it. The sand surface of Winter Guard also provides a huge safety factor for installers while walking on top of the shield.
Dennison Exterior Solutions & CertainTeed’s Diamond Deck Synthetic Felt
Dennison Exterior Solutions & CertainTeed’s Diamond Deck high performance synthetic felt is applied to the entire roof surface that is not already covered the the Winter Guard ice and water shield. This Best-in-Class underlayments performance in terms of both weather protection and contractor safety is unsurpassed.
Diamond Deck has exceptional dimensional stability compared to standard 15lb or 30lb felt underlayment which can wrinkle when it becomes wet and “telegraph” those wrinkles through to the shingles applied over it detracting from the beauty of your homes new shingles. Diamond Deck eliminates this problem and it special top surface treatment provide excellent slip resistance, even when wet for contractor safety.
