San Mateo Roof Pros: Roof Replacement, Leak Repair & Remodel Roofing

San Mateo Roof Pros takes on roof replacement, leak repair, tile relay work, low-slope membrane and gutters for houses and commercial buildings across San Mateo, California. We install laminated composition shingle, concrete and clay tile, flat-lock and standing seam metal and welded TPO, with self-adhered membrane at every valley, curb and penetration.

What makes a roof here unusual is not the weather. It is that the roof is almost never the whole project. Median owner-occupied value in this city runs past $1.6 million against housing whose median build year is 1965, so the structure is the cheap half of what you own. Roofs get replaced when a kitchen moves, a floor goes on, or a sale is closing.

That changes the question from which shingle to which counter, and when. A repair or a straight reroof is issued over the counter here. The same roof drawn into an addition set instead goes to plan check, and discretionary planning review can come before that. We scope both paths, price them apart, and name the planes worth spending money on this year.

About San Mateo Roof Pros in San Mateo, CA

San Mateo Roof Pros works this city and the towns either side of it, from the pre-war blocks in San Mateo Park and Baywood to the sixties tracts out in Shoreview and the mixed-use buildings downtown. Composition, clay and concrete tile, flat-lock and standing seam metal, plus single-ply and modified bitumen on the low-slope additions behind almost every older house here.

We built the company around one observation. On the Peninsula the land carries the value and the building is the smaller number, so a roof is hardly ever bought on its own merits. It is bought because a remodel is coming, a sale is closing, or something failed at the worst possible moment. Knowing which of those you are in changes the right answer completely.

There are jobs we are wrong for. If the cheapest bid on the block is what you are after, somebody will overlay your existing roof and skip the decking, and we are not going to compete with that. If your roof has three good years left and no project behind it, we will tell you to spend nothing and look again later, which is a poor way to run a sales pipeline and an honest way to run a trade.

How It Works

1. Plane-by-Plane Survey. We get onto the planes that will carry weight, run a pole camera across brittle tile and steep hips, open the attic, and number every plane on a sketch. Each one gets a remaining-life range and a note on what is underneath it, taken from a lifted course rather than guessed from the decade the house was built.
2. Your Permit Path, In Writing. We tell you which counter your job goes to. A reroof or a repair is issued the same visit. Work folded into an addition submittal goes to plan check, where the city allows up to twenty working days a cycle, and additions that add upper-floor area pick up planning review with neighbor noticing before any of that starts.
3. Two Scopes, Two Dates. You get the repair-now number and the replace-with-the-remodel number on the same page, with the planes each one covers listed by number. Then we tell you which one we would buy if it were our house, and why, including the cases where the answer is to spend nothing at all this year.
4. Build, Photograph, Close Out. Decking is opened and priced by the sheet at an agreed rate. Every penetration and transition is photographed before it is covered. The debris is weighed and diverted, the inspection is scheduled by us, and the permit final and the diversion receipt are handed over at the end rather than promised.
