Full Roof Replacement with CertainTeed Landmark Shingles in Weathered Wood

This was a full roof replacement on a large custom home - the kind of job where material choice and attention to detail really matter. We went with CertainTeed Landmark shingles in Weathered Wood, and honestly, it's one of those colors that works perfectly on a brick home. The warm gray tones tie in with the exterior without competing with it.

CertainTeed Landmark is one of the most trusted shingle lines in residential roofing. They're built with a dual-layer construction that adds thickness and strength, and the Weathered Wood color has that natural, blended look that holds up well over time - it doesn't fade into something flat or one-dimensional like cheaper shingles tend to do. For a home this size with this much roofline, that texture and depth makes a real difference from the street.

We also upgraded the hip and ridge caps throughout. That detail matters more than most people realize. Standard three-tab shingles cut down and folded over the ridge is the old way of doing it - it looks thin and it performs worse. Purpose-built hip and ridge shingles sit higher, seal tighter, and give the roofline a much sharper, cleaner finish. On a complex roof with multiple hips and valleys like this one, that upgrade is immediately noticeable.

To round it out, we installed new gutters as part of the job. A fresh roof deserves a properly functioning gutter system. It protects the fascia, the foundation, and everything in between. Doing it all at once keeps the finished product looking cohesive and ensures the whole system is working the way it should.

The result is a roof that does what a roof is supposed to do - protect the home - while also making the property look noticeably better. That combination of performance and curb appeal is exactly what a full replacement should deliver.
