CertainTeed Presidential Shake Country Gray Roofing in Renton
For this Renton roof replacement, the homeowner selected Presidential Shake in Country Gray, one of CertainTeed’s most distinctive luxury shingle colors. Presidential Shake is engineered to replicate the look of hand-split cedar shakes while delivering the fire resistance, impact performance, and low maintenance of a modern asphalt roofing system.
Our crew completed a full roof tear-off, inspected the roof deck, and installed a complete CertainTeed roofing system including:
- Complete roof tear-off and deck inspection
- New synthetic underlayment and waterproofing
- Ice & Water Shield in valleys and critical areas
- CertainTeed Presidential Shake shingles in Country Gray
- Premium ridge cap and hip shingles
- Updated attic ventilation
- Manufacturer-approved flashings and accessories
Installing the complete roofing system helps qualify the roof for CertainTeed’s enhanced warranty coverage while providing superior weather protection for the Pacific Northwest.
18.9kW CertainTeed Solstice Solar System with Enphase Microinverters
After the new Country Gray roof was installed, our certified solar team designed and installed an 18.9kW CertainTeed Solstice solar system. The system uses high-efficiency Solstice photovoltaic modules paired with Enphase IQ microinverters for maximum energy production and long-term reliability.
The solar system features:
- CertainTeed Solstice high-efficiency solar modules
- Enphase IQ microinverters installed at each panel
- Individual panel-level monitoring through the Enphase app
- Rapid shutdown compliance and safe electrical design
- Clean, low-profile racking and professional installation
- Engineered layout for the roof’s sun exposure and shading
Because each panel operates independently through microinverter technology, the system performs better in partial shade and gives the homeowner real-time visibility into every module’s production.
