SHINGLEROOFING

On the ground in Lake Forest

Ask ten Lake Forest owners about their roof and you get the same complaints: hillside exposure means uplift at the ridges and UV on the south faces. We are roughly 42 miles southeast of Lake Forest, close enough for a same-day look at a leak.

Crews rotate through Laguna Hills, Laguna Woods and Mission Viejo, so the drive is routine.

• Gutters are pulled and refitted properly instead of being crushed by a ladder.
• Skylights are re-flashed as part of the job rather than quoted as an extra later.
• We protect landscaping and the pool before a single bundle comes off the truck.
• Magnet sweeps run morning and evening, which matters on a street with kids and bare feet.
• Skylights are flashed new rather than reused, because that is where the next leak starts.

Leaks found in summer cost a fraction of the same leak found in February. If a repair solves it, we quote the repair instead of selling a replacement.

The things that actually matter

Moisture readings go in the report where a leak is suspected but not obvious.

• Ventilation gets looked at while the roof is open; most Lake Forest attics run hotter than they should.
• You get a start date and a finish date in writing, and we hold them.
• One person runs your job and answers the phone the whole way through.
• Nothing is left on the lawn overnight, and the dumpster goes when the job ends.

Lake Forest in detail

There is nothing abstract about a Lake Forest roof: whatever fails first on these roofs fails at the edges. We cover Lake Forest from about 42 miles southeast, close enough for emergency calls.

The roofs in Laguna Hills, Laguna Woods and Mission Viejo are built much the same way, and they fail the same way.

• We photograph every penetration before and after, so the file shows the work.
• Material is delivered the morning of the job, not left on the driveway for a week.
• Gutters are pulled and refitted properly instead of being crushed by a ladder.
• Magnet sweeps run morning and evening, which matters on a street with kids and bare feet.
• Gutters are pulled and refitted where they block a proper drip edge.

The first big storm books out the whole trade, so earlier is cheaper. Call and we will look at the Lake Forest roof, show you photos, and put the price in writing.

Questions Lake Forest owners ask us

Workmanship coverage is ours to honour, and we are still here to honour it.

• We do not ask for large deposits before material is delivered.
• Moisture readings go in the report where a leak is suspected but not obvious.
• Ice-and-water goes in at the valleys and penetrations even though it rarely freezes here.
• Plants and pool equipment are covered before tear-off begins.
