Just wrapped up in Exeter, RI: a Residential Roof Replacement completed by Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights. We installed CertainTeed Landmark PRO in Shenandoah 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
The scope on this Exeter roof included complete removal of old roofing material, careful inspection of the deck structure, and a methodical rebuild designed to last through decades of Rhode Island weather. We started by assessing slope, layout, and ventilation needs, then staged materials for efficient installation. Damaged sheathing was replaced, ice and water shield went down at all critical areas, and synthetic underlayment provided a secondary weather barrier over the entire deck. Shingles were installed with precise nailing patterns and proper exposure, and every flashing transition—chimney, sidewall, headwall, valleys, pipe boots—was sealed for long-term water management. Ridge ventilation was installed or upgraded to help manage attic heat and moisture, which directly affects how long shingles last in Exeter’s climate. Our step-by-step approach ensures nothing gets skipped.
What We Installed (And Why)
This Exeter project features CertainTeed Landmark PRO in Shenandoah—installed as a complete roof system, not just shingles on plywood. We build the roof in layers that reinforce each other: ice and water shield at eaves and valleys, synthetic underlayment over the entire deck, proper starter course, CertainTeed Landmark PRO field shingles with premium heavyweight construction that outperforms standard architectural shingles, and matching hip and ridge caps. warm multi-tonal earth blend gives the roof a dimensional appearance that enhances the home’s curb appeal while the layered system underneath handles Rhode Island’s toughest weather. We install to CertainTeed’s specifications because that is what activates full warranty coverage through their certified installer program. See manufacturer details.
Good To Know
On Exeter homes like this one near Arcadia Management Area, flashing failures cause more roof leaks than shingle failures—and most homeowners don’t know it. Chimney flashing, vent pipe boots, sidewall transitions, and valley lining are all areas where water concentrates and flows, and if the flashing is improperly installed or deteriorating, water finds its way in. We replace or upgrade all flashing during a roof replacement because reusing old flashing under new shingles is one of the most common shortcuts in the industry. On this Exeter project, every flashing transition received new material installed to current best practices.
Why This Approach Works
Matching the right product to the right conditions is half the job on any roof. CertainTeed Landmark PRO was selected for this Exeter home because it handles deep rural, heavy tree canopy exposure with proven performance. The other half is installing it precisely to manufacturer specifications—correct nailing patterns, proper overlap, sealed transitions, and adequate ventilation. When both halves are done right, the roof delivers the decades of protection the manufacturer designed into the product. Cutting corners on either material selection or installation always shows up later.
