Metal roofs, shingle roofs and honest repairs for Lancaster, CA homeowners. Family owned since 2002, and estimates are always free.
Metal roofing is our specialty, but shingles, gutters, soffit and leak work all get the same attention in Lancaster.
Reflective coatings keep a metal roof cooler in summer and seal up the small stuff before it turns into a leak.
Small repairs get the same crew and the same care as a full roof. Free estimate, a price in writing, and the work done before the next rain moves in.
New skylights set into metal or shingle roofs, with the flashing kit the roof actually calls for rather than a tube of sealant.
Churches, shops, barns and small commercial buildings. We have roofed everything from a wood shed to a steeple.
Water runs along decking and rafters before it ever drips, so the stain is rarely under the hole. We trace the leak back to where it really starts and fix that.
Missing shingles get matched as close as weathering allows. Loose metal gets new fasteners and washers, and the eaves, rakes and ridge get sealed back up tight.
Backed out screws, split washers, rust starting at a seam, a panel lifted at the eave. These are our roofs, and most of the time a repair is all it takes.
Rotted fascia and sagging soffit let water and animals in behind the roof edge. We cut the bad wood out and put new in.
This is the work our name is attached to. Two decades of tin roofs on houses, churches, barns and additions, installed by crews who cut the trim on site instead of forcing something that almost fits.
Steam and hand work, never a hammer and chisel on your roof. Then we check the eaves for the damage the ice already did.
After a storm we walk the roof, photograph everything we find, and write an itemized estimate you can hand straight to your adjuster.
Guards and screens so you are not up a ladder every fall digging pine needles out of the gutter by hand.
Temporary cover goes on fast, then we come back and make the permanent repair once we can see properly what we are working with.
A replacement is a big spend and it should feel orderly. We schedule around dry weather, work in the right order, and never leave a house open overnight.
Slate and tile take patience and matching pieces. We replace broken and slipped units and rework the flashing they hide.
Repair or replace, we handle both, and we work from what the roof actually needs rather than from what an adjuster might approve.
Buying, selling, or just want to know how many years you have left? We look, we tell you, and we do not turn it into a pitch for a roof you do not need.
Underlayment, ice and water shield in the valleys and along the eaves, sealed penetrations, and proper closures at the ridge.
We still shingle plenty of roofs. Cracked, curled and blown off shingles get replaced, and the valleys and flashing get reworked while we are up there.
Low slope roofs fail at the joints and around anything that sticks through them. That is where we start, not out in the middle of the field.
Standing seam and metal panels have been our specialty since 2002. Around Lancaster that means everything from a small porch roof to a full house in dark green, burgundy or bronze, cut and fit on site by crews who have done hundreds of them.
A metal roof done right in Lancaster should be quiet inside, straight from the street, and still there long after you have stopped thinking about it. That takes sound decking, real underlayment, and panels that are actually square. We do not skip those parts to save a day.
Here is what Lancaster homeowners tell us makes the difference.
The same family started this company putting metal roofs on neighbors houses in 2002. It has never been sold, franchised or handed off to a call center.
Beds get covered, tear off gets hauled as we go, and a magnet goes over the drive before we pull out. Your yard should look like we were never there.
Somebody comes out, measures, gets on the roof, and leaves you a written price. No charge, no obligation, and no number that expires if you do not sign today.
If your roof needs a repair and not a replacement, we say so. Plenty of our best customers are people we talked out of a job they did not need yet.
You get a start date and we hold to it. If weather moves your job we call you, rather than leaving you watching the driveway.
The questions that come up on just about every estimate we write.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment under it, a Lancaster metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside the house. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed straight to open purlins over a barn with nothing underneath.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Lancaster roofs we get called to look at need flashing reworked or a section refastened, not a whole new roof. We will tell you honestly which one you are looking at, and if it is repairable we would rather repair it.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Lancaster metal roof can go over the top on purlins. If there is rot underneath or two layers already on, we tear off first — and we will tell you that before you sign, not halfway through.
Any dry stretch works. We roof in Lancaster year round, though we schedule shingle work for when it is warm enough for the strips to seal properly, and we watch the forecast so your house is never left open overnight.
No. Estimates are always free in Lancaster. We come out, measure, look in the attic if we can get to it, and leave you a written price. Nobody will push you to sign anything that day, and the number does not expire in an hour.
A metal roof installed properly on a Lancaster home should give you 40 to 60 years, and standing seam often goes longer because there are no exposed fasteners. Screws and sealants on a panel roof want attention around year 20, which is a small job next to a re-roof.
