Hawaiian Built Roofing becomes Idaho’s only certified CertainTeed Solstice installer

Hawaiian Built Roofing says it is now Idaho’s only certified installer of CertainTeed Solstice® Shingle, giving Treasure Valley property owners a local option for a roof-integrated solar system. The certification could matter for homeowners and commercial owners weighing roof replacement, energy-efficiency upgrades, or a lower-profile alternative to traditional solar panels.

Why it matters: - Idaho property owners now have a local path to a roof-integrated solar product that combines weather protection and energy generation in one system. - The certification could appeal to homeowners, commercial property owners, property managers, and investors looking for an alternative to rack-mounted solar panels. - Proper installation and manufacturer training matter for long-term performance and warranty protection on combined roofing and solar systems.

What happened: - Hawaiian Built Roofing announced that it is Idaho’s only certified installer of CertainTeed Solstice® Shingle. - The Boise-based company is offering the product to customers across Boise, Meridian, Eagle, Kuna, Garden City, Star, Nampa, and Caldwell. - The company is positioning the service for property owners planning roof replacements, new construction, or energy-efficiency upgrades. - Hawaiian Built Roofing said its certification gives Idaho customers access to an integrated solar roofing solution through a local contractor.

The details: - CertainTeed Solstice® Shingle is designed to integrate solar technology directly into the roofing system. - The product differs from traditional solar panels that sit on top of an existing roof. - The integrated design allows the roof to generate solar energy while keeping a more streamlined appearance. - The system lets property owners address roofing and energy goals within a single installation. - Hawaiian Built Roofing was founded in 2004 by Kenny and Sandra Daffer and remains family-owned. - The company handles residential and commercial roofing, roof repairs, roof replacements, roof inspections, flat roofing systems, attic ventilation, solar panel installation, and solar shingle installation. - Kenny Daffer, vice president of operations and co-founder, has more than 30 years of roofing experience. - Sandra Daffer, president and co-founder, said the company wants to offer solutions that combine durability, energy efficiency, and professional installation. - Hawaiian Built Roofing also provides manufacturer-certified installation expertise and helps customers evaluate potential roofing warranty claims when manufacturer defects may be involved. - The company serves both English- and Spanish-speaking customers. - Hawaiian Built Roofing says its crews are background-checked and perform complete debris cleanup and respectful jobsite service.

Between the lines: - The certification gives Hawaiian Built Roofing a niche position in a market where solar and roofing are increasingly converging. - The move may help the company reach property owners who want solar benefits without the look or footprint of conventional panels. - Local certification can also be a differentiator in a category where installation quality can affect both system performance and warranty coverage.
