Get a FREENEW ROOFAlmost for Free!

The roofs we end up replacing through insurance in Cow Hollow usually looked fine from the street the week before. marine layer mornings keep roofs damp long after sunrise, and onshore wind drives rain sideways into flashings.

From inspection to new roof

• Free inspection. We photograph every slope, including drone imagery, and tell you plainly whether there's a claim worth filing.
• Documentation. You get a written report with dated photos, the kind of package an adjuster expects to receive.
• You file the claim. The policy is yours, so the claim is yours. We supply the evidence.
• We meet the adjuster. On the roof, at your property, so nothing gets missed on the walkthrough.
• Approval and scope. If items are left off the scope, we supply the detail for a supplement or re-inspection.
• Replacement. Tear-off to bare deck, new underlayment and flashing, new shingles, full cleanup and a photo walkthrough.

What makes a Cow Hollow roof eligible

Whether a roof qualifies comes down to what caused the damage and when.

• Sudden, identifiable damage. Wind, hail, falling branches and storm debris are covered events. Gradual wear and age are not.
• An active policy with roof coverage. Replacement cost policies pay differently than actual cash value, and it's worth knowing which you have before the call.
• A recent date of loss. Most policies expect the claim to be filed within a set window of the event, so a wind event you remember is worth acting on.
• Damage the adjuster can see. Lifted or creased shingles, broken seals, displaced ridge caps, damaged flashing — documented slope by slope.

Where we draw the line

An honest inspection sometimes ends with "your roof is fine." That's a result too, and it costs you nothing.

What you actually pay

On an approved replacement cost claim, your out-of-pocket is generally the deductible. Depreciation is usually released once the work is complete and invoiced.

Your deductible is the number that matters. If the repair costs less than the deductible, we'll tell you not to file — a claim on the record with no payout helps nobody.

What changes on a Cow Hollow roof

What a roof faces in Cow Hollow is specific, not generic: whatever fails first on these roofs fails at the edges. Our shop sits about 339 miles northwest of Cow Hollow, so a crew is on site the same morning.

The roofs in Marina District, Pacific Heights and Presidio Heights are built much the same way, and they fail the same way.

• We work around tenants and business hours where the building is occupied.
• Tile is sorted and reused where it is sound, which keeps the roof looking original.
• Solar panels get detached and reset on a schedule that matches the roofing crew.
• We protect landscaping and the pool before a single bundle comes off the truck.
• Skylights are flashed new rather than reused, because that is where the next leak starts.

We would rather find the problem in the dry months and fix it on a schedule. No pressure, no same-day-only discount, no hard close.

Local conditions, local claims

Damp shade, salt and wind-driven rain are what age a roof here, more than raw heat in Cow Hollow. Marine layer mornings keep roofs damp long after sunrise, and onshore wind drives rain sideways into flashings, and that is exactly the kind of sudden damage a policy is written for. Most of the claims we document here start at a rake, a ridge line or a piece of flashing.

What you can expect from us

Change orders are written and signed, never verbal.

• Warranty paperwork is registered for you, not left in a folder for you to chase.
• Ventilation gets looked at while the roof is open; most Cow Hollow attics run hotter than they should.
• Fascia and rafter tails get checked while the edge is open.
• Underlayment is where corners get cut; we use the system the manufacturer warrants.
