Frequently Asked Questions

Roofing Questions Santa Rosa Homeowners Ask Us Most

How much does a roof replacement cost in Santa Rosa?

Cost tracks square count, roof pitch, and whether we do a full tear-off or a recover. Steep roofs in Fountaingrove and Rincon Valley take more staging and more labor. We give a free line-item estimate so you see materials and labor separately.

How long does a roof replacement take?

Most single-family homes take two to four days with a clean forecast. Adding a skylight or a new ridge vent can push it to five. Heavy winter rains off the Pacific change the schedule, so we watch the radar before we strip your roof deck.

Will my insurance cover storm or hail damage?

Often it does, when wind uplift or hail bruising is documented on the shingles. We photograph the damage, meet the adjuster on the rooftop, and submit a supplemental claim if the first scope misses rot underneath. Call us at 415-687-5270.

How often should I get a roof inspection?

Once a year, ideally in early fall before the rains return. After a wind event or any hail, get one sooner. An inspection catches granule loss, cracked flashing, and small leaks before water wicks into the sheathing.

Can you repair my roof instead of replacing it?

Sometimes we can. If three-tab or architectural shingles show end-of-life wear across the whole field course, patching one slope just moves the leak. We will tell you plainly which situation you are in.

Do you work on flat and commercial roofs?

Yes. We install EPDM, TPO, and modified bitumen membrane systems, and we handle roof coating when a low-slope section still has life in it. Parapet walls and scupper drains get detailed the same day we open the roof.
