North Kingstown homes near Quonset face bayside, coastal and inland mix conditions year-round—and this roof replacement was built to handle every bit of it. We chose CertainTeed Landmark in Charcoal Black for its proven performance in this environment. At Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights, we approach every North Kingstown project with the same goal—quality work, honest communication, and a result the homeowner can trust for decades.
Scope of Work
On this North Kingstown home near Quonset, 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. North Kingstown roofs deal with bayside, coastal and inland mix 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.
The Roofing System
For this North Kingstown project, we installed CertainTeed Landmark 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 delivers industry-leading warranty coverage through certified installers and Class A fire rating and wind resistance up to 130 mph. 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
Ice dams are one of the biggest threats to North Kingstown roofs, and prevention starts long before winter arrives. When heat escapes through a poorly insulated attic, it melts snow on the upper roof surface—that meltwater runs down to the cold eaves and refreezes, creating a dam that forces water back up under the shingles. Proper attic insulation and ventilation keep the roof surface cold and even, preventing the melt-freeze cycle from starting. Ice and water shield installed at the eaves provides a backup layer of protection. We address both ventilation and ice protection on every North Kingstown project because ignoring either one invites problems.
Why This Approach Works
The approach on this North Kingstown roof was straightforward: do every step correctly rather than rushing to finish. That means proper deck preparation with repairs where needed, correct underlayment overlap and sealing, new flashing at every transition point, and shingles installed to the manufacturer’s exact nailing pattern and exposure requirements. It also means a clean job site, clear communication with the homeowner, and a final walkthrough where we explain what was done and why. That careful approach is what delivers decades of reliable protection and the kind of experience that earns trust.
