Just wrapped up in Exeter, RI: a Residential Roof Replacement completed by Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights. We installed CertainTeed Landmark in Silver Birch on this farmhouse near Arcadia Management Area. At Pinnacle we know how important a roof is to protecting what you value most, and we treat every project the way we’d want ours done—careful planning, respectful workmanship, and a clean job site when we’re done.
Scope of Work
On this Exeter home near Arcadia Management Area, we started with a thorough inspection of the existing roof, checking the deck, flashing, and ventilation before any material was removed. The tear-off revealed the condition underneath—we assessed the sheathing for soft spots, checked for moisture damage, and replaced any compromised sections before moving forward. From there, we installed a quality synthetic underlayment, proper ice and water shield at all vulnerable areas, starter strips along the eaves and rakes, and field shingles secured to manufacturer fastening specifications. Every transition—walls, chimneys, vent pipes, valleys—received new flashing designed to shed water cleanly. Exeter roofs deal with deep rural, heavy tree canopy conditions year-round, and the most important work is often the least visible. We focus on getting those hidden layers right because that is what determines how long the roof actually lasts. Learn more about our roofing process.
What We Installed (And Why)
For this Exeter project, we installed CertainTeed Landmark in Silver Birch as part of a CertainTeed Integrity Roof System. That matters because the roof is built in layers that work together—waterproofing protection at vulnerable areas, a dependable secondary barrier over the deck, strong edge sealing at the starter course, ventilation that helps manage heat and moisture, and ridge protection that completes the system. CertainTeed Landmark delivers a wide range of Max Def color blends for any architectural style and proven coastal performance across Rhode Island communities. We install to manufacturer requirements with warranty-minded workmanship so the roof performs the way it’s designed to through every Rhode Island season.

Good To Know
Exeter’s deep rural, heavy tree canopy environment means your roof takes more punishment than roofs in sheltered inland areas. Salt air accelerates corrosion on metal components, wind stress tests every fastener, and the combination of rain, ice, and temperature swings puts constant pressure on the roof system. That is why we recommend premium-grade products with proven coastal performance and install every component to manufacturer specifications—because cutting corners in this climate shows up faster and costs more to fix. Investing in proper materials and installation up front is the most cost-effective decision a homeowner can make.
Why This Approach Works
Ventilation and underlayment are invisible once the roof is finished, but they determine almost everything about long-term performance—attic temperature, moisture levels, shingle longevity, and ice dam prevention. This Exeter installation addressed every layer of the system, not just the surface. Proper ridge and soffit ventilation keeps the attic cool in summer and dry in winter, which directly extends the life of the shingles above. The approach is simple: build every layer right, and the roof performs the way it was designed to for decades.
