About 1,800 sq ft, around 24 squares of roof
About 2,600 sq ft, around 34 squares of roof
For a plain hip roof at a standard pitch, with one layer to remove and sound decking. Rotted decking found after tear-off is priced per sheet, in writing, before that work is done.
What the price covers
The old shingles and underlayment come off, and the dumpster goes with them.
We go over the decking before the new roof goes on. Any sheet that needs replacing has a price per sheet in your estimate, written first.
Synthetic underlayment, drip edge and a starter strip on every roof.
New pipe boots, new flashing where the old is worn, and ridge or attic vents to match.
We pull the county or city permit and meet the inspector.
A magnet sweep of the yard and driveway, then a walk-around with you.
Not in these prices: decking beyond the stated sheets, fascia and soffit repair, chimney masonry, skylights, gutters and repairs inside the house.
Paying for it
Financing is optional. You can pay by check or card on the schedule in your contract.
Your lender gives you the rate, the term and the payment in writing before you agree. Lender: Peninsula Home Lending. Subject to credit approval. Your rate, term and payment depend on your credit and on the lender's terms, and financing never changes the price of the roof.
Down payment: shown in the lender's offer
APR: stated by the lender
Term: the number of monthly payments, stated by the lender
Total of payments: stated by the lender before you sign

The job
Most homes take one to two working days once the crew arrives.
We measure, look at the decking from the attic and write the number down.
The crew strips the old roof section by section, checks each sheet and covers what it opens.
New shingles, boots and vents go on, then a magnet sweep and a walk-around with you.
The people

Owner and estimator
Tameka writes the estimates and signs the contracts. If you call on a Saturday morning, she is the one who picks up.

Crew lead
Gustavo runs the tear-off crews and the schedule. He speaks Spanish and English, on the roof and on the phone.
From customers
“I had never paid for a roof and had no idea what was normal. The estimate had every line on it, and the dumpster was gone by the second afternoon.”
“Gustavo explained the price per sheet of decking to my father in Spanish before we signed. When two boards were rotten, the cost was the one already written down.”
“They found one cracked pipe boot, replaced it and told me the rest of the roof was fine. No sales pitch, and the bill matched the quote.”

Questions
It depends on the size of the roof, its pitch, its shape, how many layers come off and what the decking looks like. The example prices above are for a plain roof; your written estimate gives the real number.
Most homes take one to two working days. A large, steep or complicated roof can take longer, and weather can move the schedule.
For a full replacement, almost always. We pull it and meet the inspector, and the fee is a line on your estimate.
Afternoon showers are normal here. The crew starts early and covers every section it opens before leaving it.
Your contract states the deposit and each payment. Financing is optional and goes through a lender who sets the rate and term; subject to credit approval, with the terms shown in the example above.
Your estimate states a price for each sheet of decking replaced, before we start. The only thing that can change is how many sheets.
Tell us where the roof is and whether water is coming in. We call or text by the next business morning, in English or Spanish.
