CertainTeed shingles are organized into several levels or tiers based on quality, appearance, and price, ranging from budget three-tab to premium designer luxury shingles. The entry level is three-tab shingles, represented by CertainTeed XT 25, a basic 20 to 25-year three-tab shingle for budget projects. Next is the architectural shingle level, which is the most popular, including CertainTeed Landmark, the flagship architectural shingle with dual-layer construction, 240 to 270 pounds per square, and many colors, plus Landmark PRO which is heavier and thicker with more dimensional appearance, and Landmark TL which is triple-layer for extra thickness. Next is the premium architectural level, including CertainTeed Landmark Premium and Landmark ClimateFlex which has polymer-modified asphalt for flexibility and Class 4 impact resistance. Next is the designer or luxury level, which mimics natural materials, including CertainTeed Grand Manor which mimics slate, Presidential Shake which mimics wood shake, Belmont which mimics slate, Carriage House which mimics Victorian shingles, and Highland Slate. The highest level is CertainTeed's premium designer Grand Manor and Presidential Shake TL that offer the most luxurious appearance and weight up to 425 pounds per square. Each higher level offers better durability, appearance, and warranty, with price ranging from 80 dollars per square for three-tab to 300 to 500 dollars for luxury designer.
