Roofing Washington, One Home at a Time
CertainTeed Patriot is a value-focused architectural shingle that brings dimensional style to budget-minded Northwest roofs.
Patriot is a single-layer laminated shingle engineered to deliver an architectural look at an accessible price. It gives homeowners the dimensional appearance they want over a flat 3-tab profile while keeping material costs down. The shingle handles everyday Puget Sound rain and wind well for its class, making it a practical choice for rentals, budget projects, and homeowners upgrading from a basic strip shingle. Patriot balances affordability with the modern dimensional style buyers now expect.
Architectural look at a value price; dimensional profile that beats a flat 3-tab appearance; practical for rentals and budget-conscious projects; algae-resistant granules for streak defense; a sensible step up from basic strip shingles
1) Remove the old roofing and check decking for soft spots; 2) Apply ice-and-water shield at eaves and valleys plus synthetic underlayment; 3) Install Patriot shingles with correct nailing and offsets; 4) Finish with matching ridge caps and detail the flashings
Lower material cost within the architectural class; roof size and squares; pitch and access; number of valleys and penetrations; deck repair and tear-off disposal
The dry late-spring-through-fall window is the most reliable time to install Patriot in western Washington.
