CertainTeed Products for St. Louis Homes

The CertainTeed Landmark® is the gold standard in residential roofing — and the best-selling architectural shingle in North America. Combining outstanding beauty, weather resistance, and value, the Landmark® is our recommended choice for most St. Louis area re-roofing projects. It features a layered construction that creates a natural shadow line, StreakFighter® algae resistance, and an extensive color palette designed to complement any home style.

The Landmark Pro® builds on the proven Landmark® platform with a thicker, heavier construction that creates a more pronounced, luxurious shadow line. If you want noticeably more depth and dimension than a standard architectural shingle but don't need the full premium shake or slate look, the Landmark Pro® hits the sweet spot. The added weight also contributes to a more robust feel and slightly improved hail performance.

St. Louis sits in the heart of hail country, and the Northgate® was built for exactly this environment. It carries a Class 4 rating under UL 2218 — the highest impact resistance classification available for asphalt shingles — earned by withstanding the impact of steel balls simulating 2" hailstones without cracking. Many insurance carriers in Missouri offer premium discounts of 10–30% for Class 4 rated roofing systems, which can offset the modest premium cost of Northgate® within just a few years.

The Presidential Shake® is CertainTeed's showpiece roofing product — a three-layer laminated architectural shingle that faithfully replicates the look of hand-split cedar shake. The multi-layer construction creates extraordinary depth and shadow that cannot be achieved with a standard two-layer architectural shingle. For homes in Ladue, Town and Country, Creve Coeur, or Wildwood where curb appeal is a priority, the Presidential Shake® delivers a stunning transformation at a fraction of the cost of real wood shake — and with none of the maintenance.

The Presidential TL® takes the Presidential Shake® concept to its ultimate expression with an even thicker, more dimensional three-layer construction. The TL designation stands for 'Triple Laminate' — three distinct layers bonded together to create a roof with exceptional depth, shadow, and visual complexity that mimics high-end cedar shake more convincingly than virtually any other product on the market.

For homes with a classical or traditional architectural character, the Grand Manor® delivers the dramatic, layered appearance of hand-cut natural slate — at a price point that real slate cannot approach. The Grand Manor® features CertainTeed's thickest lamination profile, available in sophisticated colors drawn directly from natural slate palettes. It's particularly beautiful on steep-slope roofs where the layered texture creates a truly museum-quality visual.

Missouri summers push attic temperatures to 150°F or higher, driving up cooling costs and shortening shingle life. The Landmark Solaris® uses specialized reflective granules that redirect significantly more solar energy away from your home compared to standard shingles. ENERGY STAR® certified, the Solaris® can meaningfully reduce attic heat gain, lower cooling energy use, and extend the life of your roofing system — making it both an environmental and economic investment.

The Landmark TL® brings three-layer lamination technology to the Landmark® series, creating an architectural shingle with extraordinary dimensional depth and a 15-year SureStart PLUS™ warranty — the same warranty tier as the Presidential products. If you want maximum architectural shingle performance with a traditional profile (rather than the shake or slate aesthetic), the Landmark TL® is the best value in CertainTeed's premium lineup.
