    New roof from neighbor's yard, Certainteed Presidential Solaris Country Gray TL

    Our new roof from J and J is gorgeous and the process was excellent. View from the curb is mostly roof, and they guided us to a beautiful and durable total replacement for our 30+ year old roof, choosing not the cheapest, but definitely not the most expensive material: we picked Certainteed Presidential Solaris TL in Country Gray and the result is magnificent, check out the photos. The communication skills from J and J were exemplary. They have a very accessible-at-all-times boss, Matt, for big strategic questions; then a supervisor, in our case, Justin, who answers more specific questions and figured out the weird tiny details of putting a roof on our eccentric 76-year-old house; then a foreman, on the job all the time, Marco, who has the how-to knowledge and directs the crew and answered very local questions. All the workers are employees, not contractors; and J&J has all the liability insurance policies, etc. (a lot of formerly local roofers have been bought up by private equity and hollowed out - but not J and J, who are still the real thing, really owned and operated by Matt and his brother Mike.) They even have a weekly safety meeting. J and J had been doing repairs on our roof for 28 years (always a good job, at a low price) and last fall, this roof was obviously past its useful life. There were four layers on the old one, including shake at the bottom, that had to be torn off; then a new deck built; a waterproof layer; and finally, the new shingles. It was going to be a big job. Getting a roof is like getting a tattoo -- you want to do it right and do it once, because a do-over would be painful and expensive. Over the six months before the new roof we probably exchanged fifty emails with Matt Glass, a process that was extraordinarily helpful. Matt gave us guidance to drive around Glendale, Pasadena and Los Angeles and look at sample roofs in every material, in every color; it was during this run-up that we got a modern roofing education, courtesy of Matt. We looked at cheaper, functional asphalt shingle roofs; midrange "architectural" shingles; simulated shake and simulated stone made out of concrete and a kind of rubbery mudflap stuff; and so on. We drive a Honda and a Mazda - good-looking cars that will last forever with few repairs, and we wanted to same for the roof. The overlap of durability, beauty and cost guided us to the Certainteed Presidential architectural shingles. Solaris is a "cool roof" legal requirement in the City of LA; and then we paid a little more for the TL (triple laminate) just because it looks beautiful (no one was pushing TL on us, we just wanted it.) Tips for when you get a roof replacement: 1. look at and photograph as many sample roofs as you can, that helped us pick the perfect material. 2. Ask lots of questions. 3. demolition is the noisiest, messiest part but only lasts a day or two. Though everything was covered with plastic, roof dust still gets everywhere. Bring inside anything that you can. 4. coordinate with a termite guy - they can do their best work, quickly, when the roof is off! 5. On an old house there will be some small repairs from dry rot or just old wood - just let J & J do the fixes, they did great job for little money. Matt estimated eight days for demo, repair, deck construction, waterproof layer, four ventilation turbines and eight soffit vents, shingles, flashing, etc. and they hit the mark exactly.

    One of our neighbors used J and J roofing to replace their roof a couple of years ago so we decided to add them to the two other firms that were coming out for an estimate last November. Of the three companies, Joe from J and J did the most thorough inspection of the roof on our two storey Craftsman house. I'd asked the other two roofing companies what they would do if it happened to rain mid-job, which was a problem when we'd replaced another roof years ago. Joe was the only one with an acceptable answer ("cover the roof") and we knew we'd found the right place. We'd planned on hiring them after the rainy season was over but as it worked out, the extreme winds that fanned the Eaton Fire in January 2025 did considerable damage to both the house and the garage roofs, as well as some structural damage to the gables holding up the eaves on the north side, which complicated things We decided to go ahead and schedule the work. During the process, Matt Glass, one of the owners, was in constant contact which made the project go so more smoothly. His firm was even able to reinforce the section of the house with the gables as well as reattach what turned out to be a poorly added addition (with 8 layers of roofing!) that has been added sometime in the 30's. His workers were knowledgeable, professional and did a really good job of cleaning everything up when the work was complete. By the way, J and J Roofing is also mentioned on Pasadena Heritages list of recommended roofing contractors.

    The spinning turban-like roof vent makes noise when very windy. How much to replace? How much to re-shape or clean and re-assemble? It may be as simple as a twig stuck in there. It's on an asphalt shingle roof. Do you do gutter cleaning? Thanks.

The associate who first came to assess our roof and give us a quote was super informative and respectful. There was no "hard sell" and he patiently answered all of our questions even though we were in the middle of other renovations and told him we wouldn't be making any decisions that day. He said "no problem" and sent us the quote to look over. Two months later we booked the job and were thrilled with the results. The whole process was easy and exactly what you'd expect from a good roofing company. They showed up exactly when they said they would, did a wonderful job and cleaned up before they left. Four years later our gutters started to leak. Mind you, this company sub-contracts out the gutter installation, so it technically wasn't their mistake. Specialist Roofing & Repair sent out a supervisor and fixed the issue-- no charge, no delay. All under warranty. They are a WONDERFUL company that does a great job and treats their customers with respect. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

They kept us informed throughout the process and made sure everything went smoothly. The completed roof passed inspection with the City of Monterey Park, and I am extremely pleased with both the workmanship and the overall experience.

After they were finished they cleaned up as if they were never here. And there are a bunch of little details like matching the paint on both sides of fascia that was replaced, or matching color around our chimney to the new roof color really set things apart for me. I would highly recommend working with SoCal Roofing.

My wife and I didn't want to cheap out on a roof so we went with this company. Unfortunately our price had doubled (price of a brand new car of the year at that point) after the demolition was done because of how bad the wood was underneath and we were recommended to put new plywood over it and we were told it would provide better support instead of replacing all the wood. We were also told it would be more money spent and risk the possibility of leaks later on if we tried replacing the old wood. The inspectors were informative of the work needing to be done but at times they did come off as more of salesmen trying to make a sale and get their numbers up. However we went ahead, bit the bullet, and approved the work. The job took about a week or two. I would have liked more communication on when workers would pass by because sometimes they would show up unannounced. Also I had found our Blink cameras on the floor under the roof rubble a couple times even though I had offered to remove them. Nevertheless the roof is done. It looks amazing. Time will tell if the work and warranty was worth the price. I will update my review accordingly.

On came out to inspect the roof and pointed out the various problems on the roof, and suggested a full replacement on the bathroom section. I also inquire about work on our garage (though it's not leaking, but it's in need of replacement). On gave me an estimate of work for both garage and bathroom in a terrific value; I was shocked initially since no other contractor has given me such a reasonable estimate. Written and later official estimate was given, and the cost, part, work was exactly as quoted (aside from plywood needed for the garage) On is very genuine and respectful. He maintains a very high level of communication, and you just feel greatly welcomed when talking to him. Out of the 4 days of work done, On is pretty much there every day to inspect and verify proper work is done by the crew. When the crew do finish their work at the end of each day, there is NO mess left behind in the house/garden. Everything is cleaned up and nearly placed by the wall. My wife was shocked and commented that the yard was cleaner than the day before. AAA Expert Roofing did a fantastic job in my home repair, and I'm glad I ve selected them.

After an absolutely nightmare experience with our roof at the house we bought, I learned that it's actually not that easy to find honest and reliable roofers who are not out to rip you off. I'm very happy with the professionalism of the installers, they completely the job on schedule as promised, and the price we paid was in line with what we expected, given we had gotten estimates from numerous companies. Getting a new roof is no fun for sure, but you need to be in good hands. So give AAA a shot if you do.
