How We Keep Our ShingleMaster™ PREMIER Credential
CertainTeed Roofing Materials That Stand Up to Massachusetts Winters
CertainTeed Landmark Shingles: Landmark, Landmark PRO & Landmark Premium
Golden Group Roofing has been roofing with CertainTeed shingles since 2012, offering homeowners the choice of CertainTeed Landmark, Landmark PRO and Landmark Premium shingles.
We selected Landmark asphalt shingles for their high quality and proven durability. Their dual-layered shingles provide the extra protection needed for Massachusetts winters, they are algae and fire resistant, and they come in a wide array of colors to complement any home. Landmark PRO is a premium upgrade, with better wind resistance, richer colors and a thicker, heavier shingle. See the colors on our shingle colors page.
To protect your investment, CertainTeed shingles come with a comprehensive warranty that goes above and beyond, with additional coverage for streaking and wind.
CertainTeed WinterGuard Ice & Water Shield
Having fixed so many ice dams for Massachusetts homeowners, Golden Group Roofing knows how important it is to use a high quality ice and water shield. This layer protects the home against any water from rain or ice dams that may find its way under the shingles. That's why we chose CertainTeed's WinterGuard and WinterGuard HT ice and water shields. We install it on all roof eaves, rakes, valleys, transitions, chimneys, skylights, pipe boots and vents.
CertainTeed RoofRunner & DiamondDeck Synthetic Felt
After Golden Group Roofing installs the ice and water shield, we use a layer of synthetic but breathable felt as an extra protective layer. We install both the RoofRunner and the DiamondDeck felts by CertainTeed to make sure your roof is secure. RoofRunner is our better option and DiamondDeck is our best.

Is Golden Group Roofing a CertainTeed ShingleMaster PREMIER?
Yes. Golden Group is a CertainTeed ShingleMaster™ PREMIER contractor, the highest credential level a roofing company can earn from CertainTeed. We have held CertainTeed's top shingle credential every year since 2015, and all of our crew members are factory certified. We are also a CertainTeed SidingMaster™ PREMIER contractor and a registered Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor, MA HIC Reg. #174718.
What warranty comes with a CertainTeed roof from Golden Group?
Our roofs come with a 25-year workmanship warranty, and all new roofs installed by Golden Group Roofing come with a registered 50-year warranty that is non-pro-rated and, depending on the warranty level, transferable to your home's next owner. As a ShingleMaster™ PREMIER contractor, we can offer CertainTeed's SureStart™ PLUS 4-STAR and 5-STAR extended warranty coverage when we install a complete CertainTeed Integrity Roof System®. SureStart™ PLUS extends full, non-prorated coverage on materials, labor, tear-off and disposal for up to 50 years on a single-family home, depending on the level of protection you choose. The higher levels also include CertainTeed workmanship coverage: 15 years at 4-STAR and 30 years at 5-STAR, and coverage is transferable for up to 20 years. We encourage you to reach out via phone or online to schedule a free consultation.
What is the difference between SureStart and SureStart PLUS?
SureStart comes with CertainTeed Landmark shingles: for the first 10 years, CertainTeed covers 100% of the cost to repair or replace defective shingles, and after that coverage prorates. SureStart PLUS is an extended warranty that can add non-prorated years and workmanship coverage, and it is available only through credentialed CertainTeed contractors installing a full matched roof system.

We offer CertainTeed Landmark, Landmark PRO and Landmark Premium shingles. We pair them with CertainTeed WinterGuard ice and water shield, RoofRunner or DiamondDeck synthetic felt, SwiftStart starter strips and a Shinglevent 2 ridge vent. Browse the colors on our shingle colors page.
