    Gap in the flashing
    Simon T.

    Communicating with Ellison has been one of the most frustrating experiences of my life, in the many years I've worked with professional contractors. If the roof work had been completed without any issues, or if I hadn't bothered to check it personally, or if my tenants didn't happen to suffer a water leak right after the installation... I would have probably been oblivious and just left a positive review. However, because we found issues and reported them, he became extremely defensive and started alternating between "there are no problems" and "we'll take care of it" - but not actually taking any concrete actions to remedy the flaws. Part of the problem might be due to his delegation / subcontracting of work to other people - the work gets shoddy (see pictures of gaps in the metal flashing) but he will keep insisting it is good enough, while frequently miscommunicating the process or getting confused about where the flaws are. Specific example: we saw a major water leak from the roof during the first rain after the roof replacement - Ellison kept insisting the issue was with our siding, not the roof, even after we identified gaps in the roof and his own staff reported there were no problems with our siding. It took a month of arguing and withholding payment until the issues were finally fixed to a professional standard. In the future, client communication about problems should probably be routed through some other staff member who is more straightforward and less dodgy/defensive.

    Redwood Roofing completed three jobs for us. Two of which were flat roof and one was a heavily pitched house structure. Ellison was the team lead. Very communicative via text. I felt as if I was actually on the job since Ellison sent many images of their progress. The first was a flat roof townhouse, and that was completed in one day, including gutters with no issues whatsoever. The second was a very large six unit flat roof. Two stories, and I must say, for all three jobs Ellison gave us a very fair quote. Thank you! The large apartment took around four days including demo so I put a couple images for you. Out of all the quotes I got, Ellison was willing to work me into the schedule much faster than I thought it was possible. We have two more pieces of property that, we will use Redwood Roofing as the contractor.

    Redwood Roofing did a roof replacement for my new property. Redwood wasn't the cheapest quote that I had received, but they gave a competitive bid with the requests I had asked for and demonstrated a good track record of quality work at a competitive rate. Ellison's communication was the best amongst all the other companies I was talking with at the time. All work that was done was outlined and thoroughly referenced in the contract. Our roof was a primarily flat, so we went with a mod bit torch down with 2" poly iso foam boards for insulation purposes. The crew that worked on our roof was very respectful, polite and fast. The work itself took 3.5 days from start to finish. I will be using Redwood Roofing again for my other property once that roof is due to be replaced. I highly recommend going with Redwood Roofing if you need roof work. Thank you again Ellison for your professionalism.

    I highly recommend Ellison for any roofing related projects. Coming to a new home where the previous roof had issues and could be vulnerable for the upcoming rainy season, Ellison and his team handled my home's re-roofing with fast speed. He was very accommodating to helping me with the quoting, adjusting the plan when he sees new information on my roof (e.g. with plywood), and addressed extra problems as his team saw (dryrot on the roof). Ellison is also very responsive in messages and always able to adjust when there's needs. As a result the reroof was done faster than other quotes, and now with the rainy season, I'm living here without any worry. I'm very glad that I hired Ellison and his team on this project.

    During the epic rains of December 2022, we awoke to the sound of water dripping into our bedroom. Within a week, we had an estimate from business owner Ellison -- by far the most competitive of the three we requested. By mid-February, the job was complete: new shingles, new bitumen membrane, flashing and vents -- all installed within two days. We also needed a skylight replaced, which had to wait for a special order. Ellison gave us a temporary covering, then came back shortly to finish the job once the new window came in. Based on our experience, it would be hard to over-recommend Ellison and his team. He did excellent, warranted work for about half the price of competitors. Thank you!!

    I recommend working with Redwood Roofing for reroofing, which our home insurance agent requested we needed so that we could renew our home insurance policy. We got 5 quotes, of which Redwood Roofing was among the cheapest. They were able to schedule reroofing within 2 weeks, got the work done within 4 days, and were very responsive. I highly recommend them.

    New clay tile roof nearly complete. Redwood Roofing did a great job!

    I would highly recommend Ellison and the Redwood Roofing team. We solicited quotes from five roofing companies in San Francisco for a small clay tile roof replacement project. Redwood Roofing was far and away the most responsive and professional of them all. Our quote from Redwood Roofing--though not the lowest of the quotes we received--was the most detailed, and it gave us confidence their team would show equal attention to detail on the job. Ellison communicated closely with us as the weather forecast changed, and we found a few clear, sunny days for the work to be completed. The team on site was professional, cleaned up thoroughly after themselves, and showed us photos they took throughout the process. It was reassuring to see progress photos from removal of the old roof, weatherproofing and flashing installation, and finally tile installation. Overall, we couldn't be happier with Redwood Roofing's work. I can tell from the progress photos they did a really good job, and our roof looks great. Thanks Ellison and team.

We had 4 different roofers come by to give me quotes and estimates for repairs, but we eventually went with Apollo Roofing. Shahar, their sales rep, provided me with a very detailed analysis of what needed to be fixed and even provided me with multiple quotes. He even showed me drone footage of my roof and pointed out all the problem areas of my almost 40 year old roof. During the whole process, he was very accommodating and provided updates along the way. While the project start was postponed due to weather, it was worth the wait as they did a great job with redoing the underlayment of my entire roof in a timely manner. I would highly recommend them for any future projects and to my friends and family as they were very competitive in pricing compared to others while maintaining quality work.

The quality and appearance exceeded our expectations, and the crew did a fantastic job with the installation and cleanup.

During the teardown, we discovered that one of the walls hadn't been properly constructed originally. Cesar caught the issue immediately, and all the leaks are now completely resolved. They also uncovered some unexpected wood rot during the process, but instead of massive upcharges, Cesar gave me a very fair and reasonable rate to handle the repairs properly. As part of the project, they installed sound-absorbing insulation under the new siding. The difference is night and day--the house is much quieter now, completely weatherproofed, and the exterior looks gorgeous. Cesar is honest, highly skilled, hardworking, and possesses excellent communication skills. His team showed up, stayed on the job, and finished the entire project remarkably fast. He also handled day-to-day job logistics with total professionalism and ease. I was so impressed with the quality of their work that I've already referred them to family members for their own siding and roofing needs. I would not hesitate to hire Cesar and his team again. Highly recommended!

Oscar's team repaired all the damage, installed a new roof, replaced the waterproofing on the walls, and redid the siding, followed by installation of a redwood deck.

The final result looks great and is clearly much better done than the original roof. I would definitely hire them again.

That's worth its weight in gold.
