CertainTeed NorthGate® ClimateFlex® Shingles in Espresso

For this composition roof replacement in Lake Forest Park, we installed CertainTeed NorthGate® ClimateFlex® shingles in Espresso. These SBS-modified asphalt shingles are engineered with rubber-like flexibility that helps resist cracking, tearing, and impact damage through the Pacific Northwest’s freeze-thaw cycles, wind-driven rain, and seasonal temperature swings.

NorthGate shingles carry a Class 4 impact resistance rating — the highest available for asphalt roofing — making them a strong fit for Lake Forest Park homes exposed to hail, falling branches, and storm debris. Their enhanced flexibility also helps the shingles seal and perform reliably in cold, wet conditions. The Espresso color adds rich, warm depth to the home’s exterior.

CrystaLite® Skylight Replacement

As part of the roof replacement in Lake Forest Park, our crew replaced the existing skylight with a new CrystaLite® unit. Proper skylight integration is critical during any roof replacement. Our team flashed, sealed, and integrated the new skylight with the NorthGate shingle system to protect against leaks and maintain the roof’s long-term performance.

Balanced Ventilation & Hip Vent Over the Cathedral Ceiling

Balanced attic ventilation was a priority on this Lake Forest Park roof replacement. We designed the system to provide matched intake and exhaust airflow, helping regulate attic temperature, reduce moisture buildup, and support shingle longevity.

The home’s unique cathedral, or vaulted, ceiling section required a tailored approach. We installed a Hip Vent over this area to provide effective exhaust ventilation where a traditional ridge vent layout was not practical. This detail helps ensure consistent airflow across the entire roof system.
