Iron Shield Roofing Offers CertainTeed Shingles in Edmonton
Iron Shield Roofing installs CertainTeed asphalt shingles on homes across Edmonton and the surrounding region. CertainTeed is one of North America’s most respected roofing brands — and its cold-climate NorthGate shingle is one of the best matches we’ve found for Edmonton’s freeze-thaw winters and hail.
From the SBS-modified NorthGate and Class 4 Landmark IR to the best-selling Landmark family and CertainTeed’s luxury designer slate and shake lines, we help Edmonton homeowners choose a roof that performs in our climate and looks the part.
Who Is CertainTeed?
CertainTeed is a long-established North American building-products manufacturer and one of the most recognized names in residential roofing. Its shingle range spans value architectural, impact-resistant, cold-climate SBS, and luxury designer profiles, backed by a full system of underlayment, leak barrier, starter, and ridge components.
The CertainTeed Quality Promise
CertainTeed architectural shingles are built in layers engineered to work together:
- Fibreglass base mat for dimensional stability and fire resistance.
- Dual-layer (and on premium lines, multi-layer) construction for depth and durability.
- SBS polymer-modified asphalt on NorthGate for cold-weather flexibility and impact resistance.
- Max Def colour blending for richer, more dimensional colour on PRO and designer lines.
- StreakFighter® algae-resistant granules to fight black streaking.
The CertainTeed Integrity Roof System
A complete CertainTeed roof pairs the field shingle with matching components:
- Leak barrier: WinterGuard® ice & water membrane at eaves, valleys, and penetrations — essential against ice-dam backup in Edmonton.
- Underlayment: RoofRunner™ or DiamondDeck™ synthetic underlayment.
- Starter: SwiftStart® for sealed, wind-resistant eaves and rakes.
- Field shingle: your chosen NorthGate, Landmark, or designer line.

- Wind coverage to 110 mph standard, upgradeable to 130 mph with CertainTeed starter and hip & ridge.

Which CertainTeed shingle is best for Edmonton’s climate?
For most Edmonton homes, NorthGate is the standout. It’s an SBS polymer-modified shingle engineered for cold climates — the rubberized asphalt stays flexible in deep cold and resists impact, addressing both freeze-thaw cracking and hail. For a classic Landmark look with Class 4 hail protection, Landmark IR is the other strong choice.
What makes NorthGate different from regular Landmark?
NorthGate uses SBS (rubberized) polymer-modified asphalt, while standard Landmark uses conventional asphalt. The SBS modification keeps NorthGate flexible in cold temperatures and improves impact resistance — purpose-built for northern climates like Edmonton’s — and it carries longer 15-year algae and wind warranties.
Does CertainTeed make a Class 4 hail-resistant shingle?
Yes. Landmark IR carries a UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating, the highest category, and NorthGate’s SBS construction also delivers strong impact resistance. Class 4 roofs may qualify for an insurance discount — check with your provider.
What warranty comes with CertainTeed shingles?
CertainTeed shingles carry a limited lifetime warranty on single-family homes, with SureStart protection during the early years and algae-resistance coverage (10 years on Landmark, 15 on NorthGate and Landmark PRO). Enhanced warranties are available through CertainTeed credentialed contractors — talk to us about the coverage that applies to your roof.
