- Replacement, start to finish. Inspection, tear-off down to the deck, sheathing repairs, underlayment and flashing, the new roof, cleanup, and the permit through final inspection.
- The materials Bay Area roofs need. Asphalt shingle, metal and low-slope systems, with Class A fire-rated assemblies where your zone calls for them.
