Notes from Western Addition jobs

What a roof faces in Western Addition is specific, not generic: the same three details cause most of the leaks we are called out for. Our shop sits about 338 miles northwest of Western Addition, so a crew is on site the same morning.

We are in Hayes Valley, Pacific Heights and Japantown constantly, and the housing stock is much the same.

• Permits and inspections run through the local building department, and we pull them rather than leaving it to you.
• Chimney and wall flashings are replaced, not painted over with sealant.
• Magnet sweeps run morning and evening, which matters on a street with kids and bare feet.
• Access gets planned first - driveway, staging, dumpster placement - so the street stays usable.
• Material is delivered the morning of the job, not left on the driveway for a week.

We would rather find the problem in the dry months and fix it on a schedule. You get photos, measurements and a plain explanation before any work is booked.

The things that actually matter

Deck repairs are priced per sheet so there is no surprise number halfway through.

• Drip edge and starter course get installed properly - that is half the wind resistance.
• Ice-and-water goes in at the valleys and penetrations even though it rarely freezes here.
• Workmanship coverage is ours to honour, and we are still here to honour it.
• Financing exists if you want it, and nobody pushes it on you.

A closer look at Western Addition

Every town in San Francisco County treats a roof a little differently, and salt air and long damp mornings keep fasteners and flashings working hard. We are 338 miles northwest of Western Addition; crews pass through most days anyway.

The same trucks cover Hayes Valley, Pacific Heights and Japantown, which keeps callbacks quick.

• Skylights are re-flashed as part of the job rather than quoted as an extra later.
• Solar panels get detached and reset on a schedule that matches the roofing crew.
• Access gets planned first - driveway, staging, dumpster placement - so the street stays usable.
• Gutters are pulled and refitted where they block a proper drip edge.
• Permits and inspections run through the local building department, and we pull them rather than leaving it to you.

The crews fill up fast when the first storm is on the ten-day forecast. You get photos, measurements and a plain explanation before any work is booked.

The things that actually matter

Nothing is left on the lawn overnight, and the dumpster goes when the job ends.

• You get a text when the crew is coming and a walk-through when they are done.
• A hot attic shortens any roof, so the venting is part of the quote, not an upsell.
• Synthetic underlayment goes down over the whole deck, not just the valleys.
• We check the attic as well as the roof; half of what we find shows from underneath.
