Why We Only Install CertainTeed's Full Roofing System (Not Just the Shingles)
When most homeowners think about a new roof, they think about shingles. But shingles are only one piece of what actually keeps water out and your home protected. That's why Best Buddy Roofing installs CertainTeed's full Integrity Roof System — the shingles, the underlayment, the ventilation, and the accessory components — all matched together as one system, rather than mixing and matching brands to save a few dollars.
Here's why that matters: each piece is engineered to work with the others. The underlayment backs up the shingles if wind or hail gets underneath them. The ventilation keeps heat and moisture from building up in your attic, which is one of the biggest causes of early shingle failure. When all of it comes from CertainTeed and is installed to their standards, you also qualify for CertainTeed's stronger extended warranty coverage — something you simply don't get if even one component is swapped out for a cheaper alternative.
This is also exactly what our CertainTeed ShingleMaster credential means in practice. It's not just a badge — it means our crews are trained specifically on installing this system correctly, and CertainTeed backs that up with warranty protection they don't offer to every contractor.
Take a look at the video below for a quick rundown of how the Integrity Roof System fits together, straight from CertainTeed.
If you're planning a roof replacement in the Houston area, ask your contractor whether they're installing a matched system or piecing one together — it's one of the most important questions you can ask before signing anything.
