From first course to final ridge cap, this Johnston roof replacement was done right by Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights. We selected CertainTeed Landmark PRO in Charcoal Black for this ranch near Snake Den State Park—chosen for the way it looks and the way it performs in suburban, moderate terrain conditions. Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights is honored to serve Johnston, bringing the same craftsmanship, clear communication, and commitment to exceed expectations that defines every project we take on.
Scope of Work
On this Johnston home near Snake Den State Park, 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. Johnston roofs deal with suburban, moderate terrain 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.
Materials That Matter
For this Johnston project, we installed CertainTeed Landmark PRO in Charcoal Black 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 PRO delivers SureStart Plus extended warranty through SELECT ShingleMaster installers and premium heavyweight construction that outperforms standard architectural shingles. 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
The average asphalt shingle roof in Rhode Island lasts between 20 and 25 years depending on installation quality, ventilation, and exposure to weather. Premium products like CertainTeed Landmark and GAF Timberline HDZ can exceed 30 years when installed correctly as part of a complete system. Johnston’s suburban, moderate terrain conditions put extra demand on roofing materials, which is why proper product selection and expert installation matter more here than in more sheltered areas. The most expensive roof is one that fails early because it wasn’t built right the first time.
Why This Approach Works
Rhode Island’s suburban, moderate terrain weather means that flashing details and water management are what ultimately determine how long a roof lasts. On this Johnston home, every valley, pipe boot, sidewall, chimney, and wall transition was sealed with new material designed for long-term water management—not just cosmetic neatness. CertainTeed Landmark PRO provides the surface protection, but it is the system underneath that keeps water out of the home. Investing the time to get flashing right is what prevents the callbacks and leak repairs that plague shortcuts.
