Full Roof Replacement in Kent, WA

February 9, 2026

CertainTeed Landmark Shingle System – Moiré Black

When a homeowner in Kent, Washington reached out to Squatch Roofing, they weren’t looking for a quick fix — they wanted a full tear-off and replacement done the right way. No band-aids. No guesswork. Just a durable, long-lasting roof built to handle the Pacific Northwest.

That’s our kind of project. 🦍

 Project Overview

  • Location: Kent, WA
  • Project Type: Full tear-off & roof replacement
  • Completion Date: January 30, 2026
  • Roofing System: CertainTeed Landmark (Moiré Black)

🔨 Scope of Work: From Deck to Ridge

This project began with a complete tear-off, removing one full layer of old shingles and underlayment so our team could inspect the roof deck and address any hidden issues before installing the new system.

The new roof includes:

  • CertainTeed Landmark architectural shingles in Moiré Black
  • CertainTeed starter shingles installed on all eaves and rakes
  • Ice & Water Shield (peel-and-stick) at eaves, valleys, and roof penetrations
  • Synthetic underlayment across the remaining roof surface
  • 26-gauge pre-painted metal components, including:
  • Starter metal at eaves
  • Drip edge at rakes
  • Open W-valley flashing
  • CertainTeed filtered ridge vent system to improve attic airflow
  • Metal plumbing vent flashings with new rubber pipe boots
  • Plastic flapper vents for exhaust ducts
  • Electro-galvanized roofing nails used throughout the installation

During the tear-off, our crew also:

  • Replaced roof decking as needed where structural integrity was compromised
  • Installed 1/2" CDX plywood at exposed eaves per homeowner request
  • Completed a skylight re-flash, keeping the existing glass while installing new custom flashing
  • Replaced deteriorated fascia boards where required

Everything was installed to manufacturer specifications and local building code, because shortcuts don’t belong on roofs.

🎨 The Finished Result

The Moiré Black Landmark shingles delivered a clean, modern look that elevated the home’s curb appeal while providing serious protection. Combined with upgraded ventilation and precise metalwork, the finished roof is built for long-term performance — rain, wind, and all.

This is what a roofing system should look like when every component works together.
