Landmark PRO Granite Gray and VELUX Skylights — A Pawtucket, RI Colonial’s Roof Replacement

Like most Pinnacle roofing projects, the work was completed in a single day — minimizing disruption for the homeowner.

Pinnacle makes every roof affordable with monthly financing options to make your home project affordable with low monthly payments, including 0% interest for 18 months.

This tidy colonial in Pawtucket — white siding, green shutters, center chimney — got the full treatment: a complete reroof in CertainTeed Landmark PRO, Granite Gray, with VELUX skylight work folded into the same project so every roof penetration was flashed as part of one new system.

Scope of Work

The crew stripped the old roof and rebuilt it layer by layer: ice and water shield at eaves and valleys, synthetic underlayment, new drip edge and starter strip, Landmark PRO field shingles in Granite Gray, and matching hip and ridge caps — with VELUX units set and step-flashed into the new field as the shingles went down.

What We Installed (And Why)

Landmark PRO is CertainTeed’s heavyweight architectural shingle: dual-layer construction, Class A fire rating, 110 MPH wind warranty, StreakFighter algae resistance, and a lifetime limited warranty with SureStart protection. On a city lot where houses stand close, that Class A rating is more than a spec — it’s neighborly.

Granite Gray belongs on a white colonial the way green shutters do — a balanced blend of grays that keeps the house crisp without going flat. It is the safest beautiful choice in the CertainTeed deck, and on this street it looks like it grew there.

Good To Know: Why should skylights be flashed during the roof job?

A skylight’s waterproofing is not the unit — it is the flashing woven into the shingle courses around it. When skylight work rides along with a reroof, the step flashing, underlayment collar, and shingle integration happen as one operation, by one crew, under one warranty. Retrofitting the same work into an existing roof later costs more and touches shingles that were meant to stay sealed. If your skylights are within a few years of their age limit, do them with the roof.

Why This Approach Works

Every penetration on this roof — skylights, chimney, vents — was flashed into new material, not old. That is the quiet advantage of a complete replacement: the whole assembly starts at year zero together, with no inherited weak points.
