My shingle roof was not installed properly by another contractor and we had numerous leaks over the years. I was fed up and replaced the entire roof with CFR. They did a great job and Lior was very helpful explaining and updating us with each step of the installation process. We have numerous skylights and solar panels and CFR took care of them all. I would highly recommend CFR. read more

BEWARE!!!!!!!! I am just appalled. I got my new roof 13 months ago. Within 2 months, I had my first leak. Excellent response from owner - sealed that leak up, no problem. Next issue, tried to open my skylight - the crew installed my skylight backwards, rendering it inoperable. Sent a guy out, reinstalled it, thought "great! no problem". So I went to open my skylight, it is broken, he damaged it on the re-install. Lastly, I'll let the photos speak for themselves. I have had a call from the owner, Lior Leviav, acknowledging his crew significantly damaged my eaves, burned my fascia, splintered the underside of my patio roof by using nails that were too large for the job, but I have had NO offer of help, repair, compensation to make this right. I obtained 3 quotes from professional painters who will need to file down these nails one by one, patch the holes, re-prime and paint, remove spilled tar from the eaves, repair burned fascia and the quotes range from $5500- $3500. I have submitted a formal request for payment so I can repair this damage that California First Roofing have caused and I have received no written response. There is not one single square foot of roof that is not punctured by these nail holes, splintering my wood. I am disgusted that a company as big as this cannot do the right thing and pay for the damage they caused. When speaking with Lior Leviav about a $4000 quote for repairs, (which does not include skylight repairs) Lior told me "It's not worth my while, the painter is trying to rip me off". In fact it is California First Roofing who is trying to rip ME off. I paid almost $15K for a roof that has leaked, rendered my skylight inoperable, absolutely destroyed the wood beams in my eaves and patio and am now being ignored. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! Heading to small claims court so I can get the repairs done. Will update as we go! read more

I searched for a while to find the best price and most reputable roofing company in SD. Lior really made me comfortable with the roofing project! Best price and most efficient work. Highly recommended! read more

Lowest bid and best warranty out of four quotes. The reviews don't lie. Lior was very understanding and professional, always available. Ron, the foreman was also available by text anytime, cheerful and good natured. Crew showed up every day on time and cleaned up after themselves. Job was permitted, inspected and thorough. This was a complete tear off and re-roof. I have a 3000 sq ft house with a roof that was in pretty bad shape. Also my AC and vents snaking all around the roof to every room made this job difficult but I never heard a complaint. They even framed in my skylights for me. Highly recommend this company. I cant imagine anyone could do a better job. read more

California First Roofing did a fantastic job of reroofing my 1910 craftsman's slightly complicated roof. The old roof was not leaking but was 31 years old and it seemed best to replace it before painting the house. CFR is an independent company and the owner and I was in contact with him for every detail. He recommended a full tear-off of the old roof. Although I was initially reluctant to, I'm glad we did as it revealed some minor wood rot problems near the eaves where the gutters had failed. The entire job was completed from Monday to Friday, including tear-off, wood replacement and installation of the old attic vents with newer low-profile ones. The crew were on time every day and always cleaned up thoroughly before they left. The bid was the most competitive of the 3 that I received and I couldn't be happier with the job but especially with the communication and rapport that I had with them. read more

I needed a new roof and did my networking and research. I finally narrowed my choices down to two companies and then requested different colored roofs each company had installed. While still not understanding everything about roofs I saw a real difference between the two contractors. California First Roofing roofs looked finished and just nicer. When I made my decision to go with this company everything from beginning to end everything went smoothly. His price was reasonable, not cheapest and not most expensive but I see it as a very good value for my money. :) read more

CFR just finished my Asphalt shingled roof, and it looks amazing! I'm already getting compliments on the new color. Each day they were on time, worked hard, and completed the job in five days, just as promised. From the initial bid to the final walkthrough, their communication was spot-on--whether by email, text, or phone, they kept me informed throughout. Huge kudos to the crew! They were friendly, polite, as quiet as roofers can be (ha ha), and super clean. Each day, before they left, they made sure to clean up all the roofing debris then they raked and finished up with a blower. I also have four dogs, so it was essential that all gates stayed shut, and they were so mindful of that. I couldn't be happier with CFR's service! TS - Carlsbad, CA read more

We recently had our roof replaced, and I can't say enough great things about CFR crew.

My roof was installed by the CFR team just over ten years ago and I have been quite pleased with it. I have recommended them to friends. As I prepared to sell the house, the buyers expressed some concerns about some roof and attic items. They came down and reviewed the integrity of what he and his crew had done and confirmed that the roof was in fine condition. He wrote a short report for my buyers free of charge. I was willing to pay for his time and travel but he refused. Can't recommend them enough. read more

California First Roofing is the right company for your roofing needs. I used them to replace a roof on my old house and they did a great job at a reasonable price. They showed us a lot of options but decided to move forward with asphalt shingles, Owen's Cornering. The finished job look great and what I like I about them the most is that they did not try to up sell me on anything. Again, cannot say enough good things about them read more

Excellent company and honest people. I have a rental home that needed roof replacement. Requested quotes from Yelp and they called me within minutes. His follow through was incredible. Very next morning the team went to the property and sent me a quote. With that quote in hand, I went shopping and was shocked to find how bad other companies are. One of them refused to visit the property to give a quote. There was a potential issue/surprise and I called California First Roofing. He agreed to a fixed price quote. Again very surprised and now skeptical. Thinking, is he for real. Well long story short, I signed the contract, he worked it out with the HOA, got the permits and finished the job. Excellent results!!! And all this done just over the texts and phone calls. Amazing work and honest people. Highly recommended!!!! read more

I 'm very happy with the job of new roof and gutters. They were very professional and kept me informed every step of the way. They cleaned up everything every day. I would have them do it again.

Our 17 year old roof did not hold up during a recent rain storm, I called them on a Friday afternoon after we found considerable leaking from our roof into our garage. They sent a worker out on Saturday morning, he showed up at 8am climbed onto our roof, and showed us pictures and gave us an estimate to get it replaced. We went with California First Roofing due to the fact that everyone else just wanted to give us an estimate over the phone by looking thru google maps or were too busy. They were the best option hands down. read more

I'm very happy with my new roof, new skylights, new solar tube, and new gutters. Lior and his crew at California First Roofing earned these five stars. I had several companies out for estimates, and he definitely stood out. He provided a very detailed quote, took the time to answer my questions, and had good ideas and input that the other companies didn't consider or mention. It was also a very low pressure discussion. No sales pressure or upselling at all. He was at my house every day of the job, which I really appreciated. Everyone was friendly and professional, and the crew cleaned up at the end of each day. Lior also took care of dealing with the city for each step of the permit and inspection. read more

Lior was amazing to work with! Very professional, courteous and patient when addressing all of our questions and concerns. Our roof was a single layer asphalt single tear off and replacement as well as the installation of gutters and attic insulation. We went with the Owen's Corning Midnight shingle Cool Roof option for our house and garage. They offered a very competitive and fair quote. He stayed in communication with us with daily updates over the phone, text, sent us videos and even used a drone to take aerial footage of their progress. He was on site sometimes twice a day to manage the project. They also use magnets to clean up many of the nails that are a result of the demolition. Their warranty is unmatched being an Owen's Corning Platinum level installer. Lior was never pushy to sell a product, but rather wanted to educate us and make sure we were comfortable with any choices we made. He was a very kind and caring man! I highly recommend California First Roofing for anyone looking for roof replacement. read more

The crew did an amazing job on my roof replacement! Even the HVAC contractor and town inspector commented about the quality of their work and attention to detail. He even went above and beyond by converting a section of flat roof to having a slope and extending the eaves to an appropriate length. In addition, he installed some much needed (and previously nonexistent) roof vents. When undertaking a project like this, you have an idea in your mind how it will look, but this far exceeded my vision! It has literally transformed my home & I couldn't be more pleased with the result! read more

California First Roofing installed my new roof probably over 8/9 yrs ago (great work and loved the color). They custom built a new fan exhaust box and painted it to match the color of my house.

I mean, C'mon!! Team is just a honest, with great knowledge and experience. You just don't find good contractors like that anymore. I've recommended to friends who also have used them.

California First Roofing just re-roofed our small condo building in Chula Vista. They were so good to work with. The roof looks great. I always got a prompt response to my questions and requests. The entire crew was so accommodating. All employees seemed to have a good attitude about their work. Their roofing system requires that the product manufacturer has their own inspector come out to look over and sign off on the job. I feel like we got a great product and good workmanship. The company has been around for decades and unlike a lot of others who spend a fortune on TV advertising, California First Roofing seems to rely on word of mouth and personal recommendations. Highly recommend them! read more

Fast, honest, & professional! California First Roofing sent an inspector out asap to quote our roof replacement! They were the first to respond, the communication was excellent, and we had a detailed, honest quote within 24 hours.

I hope to use them for our future, preventative roof replacement. read more
