SHINGLEROOFING

What we see on Costa Mesa roofs

There is nothing abstract about a Costa Mesa roof: whatever fails first on these roofs fails at the edges. Our shop sits about 34 miles southeast of Costa Mesa, so a crew is on site the same morning.

We are in Newport Beach, Huntington Beach and Fountain Valley constantly, and the housing stock is much the same.

• Skylights are flashed new rather than reused, because that is where the next leak starts.
• Magnet sweeps run morning and evening, which matters on a street with kids and bare feet.
• We photograph every penetration before and after, so the file shows the work.
• Dry-in happens the same day the old roof comes off; nothing sits open overnight.
• Satellite dishes and A/C line sets are re-flashed, not just set back down.

A roof opened in winter costs more and risks more, so we plan around the forecast. If a repair solves it, we quote the repair instead of selling a replacement.

The parts people ask about

If the attic has no real intake, we fix that rather than leaving a new roof to bake.

• Neighbours get a heads-up about the dumpster before it lands.
• Ice-and-water goes in at the valleys and penetrations even though it rarely freezes here.
• Deck repairs are priced per sheet so there is no surprise number halfway through.
• Change orders are written and signed, never verbal.

Conditions we plan for in Costa Mesa

Roofs in Costa Mesa do not wear out the way a brochure says they do, and fog drip keeps the north side wet long enough to grow moss. Being 34 miles southeast of Costa Mesa, we can be on the roof before the next rain band arrives.

We know Newport Beach, Huntington Beach and Fountain Valley as well as we know Costa Mesa.

• Satellite dishes and A/C line sets are re-flashed, not just set back down.
• Dry-in happens the same day the old roof comes off; nothing sits open overnight.
• Skylights are re-flashed as part of the job rather than quoted as an extra later.
• Material is delivered the morning of the job, not left on the driveway for a week.
• Access gets planned first - driveway, staging, dumpster placement - so the street stays usable.

A roof opened in October is a different job from one opened in January. Nothing is booked until you have photos, a scope and a written price.

The parts people ask about

Financing exists if you want it, and nobody pushes it on you.

• Workmanship coverage is ours to honour, and we are still here to honour it.
• Change orders are discussed before anything is done, not billed afterwards.
• Drip edge and starter course get installed properly - that is half the wind resistance.
• Weather delays are called early rather than left to surprise you.
