Carlos, Juan, Adolfo, and Javier are an awesome crew. Very knowledgeable and they work super fast. Great attention to detail too. Props to Spencer, David, and Lydia for being in constant communication through the project. I would wholeheartedly recommend them for all your roofing needs! read more

We had our roofing done less than 2 years ago by a company that ended up going bankrupt with parts of the business assets getting acquired by Smart Roofing & Restoration. Despite not technically being liable for the original job, the owner Spencer showed tremendous integrity by agreeing to fix a leak discovered during the last rains. Adolfo worked on the repair with efficiency & was very thorough in ensuring the leak was fixed properly. They ran a water & moisture test to confirm. Spencer also gave us a longterm warranty on their workmanship should any additional issues arise in the leak location. Very impressed by the type of business this company runs & would highly recommend. I will personally shy away from solar/ roofing combo companies now bc many have high turnover rates given the reduction in California subsidies- sticking with a roofing first company like Smart Roofing would be the way to go. read more

4 out of 5 stars. Overall, I'm very happy with the quality of the work and the experience with Smart Roofing & Restoration. Throughout the process before the roof even started, the company was very attentive and communicative. From Spencer coming out to inspect the property, to updates over the weekend regarding possible rain delays, I appreciated the effort to keep me informed. Lydia in the office was also very accommodating with several texts and emails prior to the start of the project. Once the project began, I received texts letting me know David would be the project manager while Carlos and his crew handled the work onsite. I honestly do not know if David was present on the first day because when I drove by the property, the crew was extremely busy working and I chose not to step into the work zone for safety reasons. On the second day, I did step onto the property to speak with Carlos and ask questions. Carlos answered everything I asked and helped me better understand the roofing process, which I really appreciated. The crew was clean, efficient, professional, and overall the new roof and gutters look great. Maybe this was a little unconventional, but because the house is currently empty and I live in another county, I personally brought both the deposit and final check to the office. I also stayed in town during the roofing project just in case immediate access to the property was needed. Everyone throughout the process was courteous and accommodating. I also felt the overall value of the project was fair for the quality of materials, workmanship, communication, and the upgraded roofing system that was installed. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because I would have appreciated a final text or email from the project manager letting me know the project was officially completed. When speaking with Carlos, he did let me know the crew planned to finish on a particular day, and they clearly did. I spoke with Lydia on the phone the day I decided to bring the final check to the office, which was what would have been day 3 based on the original 2-3 day timeline they gave me, although the crew actually completed the roof in just 2 days, yes very fast for a small roof. Lydia was kind enough to call David while I was there to see if the project had officially been completed, so perhaps I may have jumped the gun a little. Still, I would have appreciated a final confirmation directly from the project manager once everything was officially wrapped up. Other than that, I'm very happy with the final result. read more

We had a very good experience with this company. All of the roofers came always on time and worked all day long. The work was impeccable, it took them seven working days to do our roof, our house has a very large roof as we are a one story 2600 square-foot home. The work again was done impeccably, they cleaned up after each day, we could not be more pleased. read more

Though not the lowest bid from 4 other,I made the correct choice. price isn't everything. Timely, professional and no hidden costs.Highly recommend. Larry Vigdor read more

Smart Roofing and Restoration - Lift, and replace. - Solar Installation Near Me - San Diego, California

Very good experience working with Smart Roofing! We had our whole roof taken off, replaced, and had solar taken off and reinstalled. Everything from exploring the initial options and quote (Spencer - CEO), to working with David (project manager), to having consistent and clear communication from Lydia (GM), the whole process went smoothly and on time. We explored many roofing companies because this is a large commitment, and we couldn't be more happier to have gone with this company. Also, their certifications with the roofing material (CertainTeed) is incredible and they completed the registration on my behalf. It will last 50 years and it's with the manufacturer itself that covers material AND labor, which is almost too good to be true. I would highly recommend Smart Roofing! read more

My wife had already coordinated for a separate company to come out and install more solar panels on our roof before I put out a request for a new roof. During the process, we found out that our roof would need to be replaced before the new panels could be installed. Now we were pretty far into the financing process to secure the solar, so we did not go with Smart Roofing for that, but they did a fabulous job on our roof. Chasen came out right away to give us a great price/quote, and got us scheduled way quicker than we thought. Originally, he told us they were about a month out, but when I told him we were in a time crunch so that the solar could be installed, he got us scheduled that same week. The crew who came out did a great job. They carefully removed our solar panels, got our roof knocked out in a couple of days, and carefully put the panels back on. I was impressed by how quickly and efficiently they worked, and I was impressed by how they cleaned up after every day. Obviously, roofing can be messy, and at the end of each day, it was so clean you could barely tell they had even been there. Thank you for doing such a great job! I highly recommend this company! read more

Had an amazing experience with my roof replacement from start to finish! David was so helpful during the whole process and the crew was absolutely amazing! They were so professional and I never felt like I was being pressured at any point. Great service for a very competitive price! I would recommend anyone looking to not hesitate to give them a call and hopefully David is able to also help you out. read more

Smart Roofing and Restoration - New roof installed by David's crew. - Solar Installation Near Me - San Diego, California

NO SHOW!! Had an appt today with an arrival time of 4-5. At 5:15, I call the office asking his eta. Note, I received a text confirming my appt and yes I'd be here. She says hold on while she calls him. Oh, she just logged on and "apparently" he had an emergency in LA and could we reschedule for next week. NO we can't reschedule. You lost your chance. Nobody called me,I left work early for this appt and zero communication. That tells me right there exactly how this company treats its clients. No Thank You. You are not the only roofing company in SD. read more

Had a new roof installed, they had the best price and warranty. The job was done quickly and professionally, I'm very happy with their work.

I can't speak highly enough of Smart Roofing & Restoration. From the moment I called them they showed full attention (shout out to Lydia) and coordinated a visit. Spencer was very responsive and did a thorough and honest assessment of the roof. He explained the issues plainly and provided a number of options to me. Although I'm not ready to proceed with the work at this time, I would certainly choose Smart Roofing and Restoration when for any roofing work. I highly recommend this company. read more

The team that came to do my roof was a well oiled machine. They got right to work and completed the job to perfection. Every day they left everything was spotless. I loved that they also have a solar division. That was once less thing for me to worry about and another fee to pay. The solar division worked hand in hand with the roofers to make this a worry free job! I highly recommend this company for all your needs. read more

I don't normally write reviews, but I had such a great experience with this roofing company that I had to share. I met with Spencer, one of the owners, and instantly appreciated his straightforward approach. I had already gotten several quotes and knew what I was looking for--I didn't want a fluffy sales pitch. Spencer was a straight shooter, which I respected and valued. One of the biggest selling points for me was that they could handle the removal and reinstallation of my solar panels in-house. Most roofing companies I talked to told me I'd have to coordinate with a third party (huge headache), but Spencer's team took care of everything under one roof--literally. Price-wise, they beat out all the other bids I received by several thousand dollars, and still stood by the same level of quality, with solid warranties on both labor and materials. No cutting corners here. What truly sealed the deal for me was that they took care of a moldy patch of stucco on the second story of my home that I've hated looking at every time I came home. I mentioned it to Spencer, and unlike the other companies who vaguely offered to "ask their guys" or "throw in extra pay," Spencer made sure his team actually cleaned and sanitized the area--and included it as part of the job. That attention to detail and follow-through really stood out. Everyone I interacted with from start to finish was professional and helpful. Special shoutout to Lydia, who truly went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Highly recommend this company if you're looking for a no-BS, full-service roofing team that delivers on quality and price. Couldn't be happier with the results! read more

Smart Roofing just completed a tear off of two layers of roof and performed a full inspection which resulted in a few unexpected but needed repairs. They offer exceptional pricing and warranty on both labor and materials for their work and materials! They offer quality and value for their services and I would encourage anyone needing a new roof to solicit a bid from Smart Roofing and Restoration. read more

Excellent professional men did an outstanding job on my tile roof. Thank you Smart Roofing.

I contacted Smart Roofing to get a quote for fixing what I initially thought were two minor issues with the tiles on my roof. Spencer arrived early to the scheduled time and within 10 minutes was able to get on the roof and assess not only the tiles I was concerned about but found several more damages tiles and other potential problems. Because the roof was installed five years ago by another roofing company, he suggested I contact them to get the work done under the warranty. He took photos of all the damaged tiles and texted them to me so that I could send them to the original contractor. This was far more than I expected and very much appreciated. If the original contractor is unable to make the needed repairs I will certainly come back to this company for a firm quote to fix the problems. read more

Always on time and provide honest estimates on cost and time frame for work completion! I highly recommend this company!

Chasen and his team at Smart Roofing did a great job fixing our roof leak. They were responsive, professional, and clearly explained the issue and solution. The crew showed up on time, worked efficiently, and left everything clean. Most importantly, the leak is fixed and we feel confident in the repair. Highly recommend! read more

Spencer, David and their employees were all great ! They were professional and did an excellent job. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to get a roofing project completed. read more

Spencer came out quickly and assessed that I didn't have a roof leak, but a patio leak. Since they don't repair patios, there unfortunately was no work for him, but he gave me some great tips on shoring up other vulnerabilities in the problem area, and referred me to someone who does that type of work. Hopefully I never need an actual roof repair, but if I do I know who to call. Really appreciate the honesty, insight, and integrity of this company. read more

We had a great experience with Smart Roofing and Restoration. We had a new roof and full solar system put on our home.

We had a great experience with Smart Roofing and Restoration.

We would definitely recommend Smart Roofing to anyone in need of roofing. read more

Very quick and reasonably priced roof replacement. Contracting was very simple and straightforward.

I got quotes from five companies before choosing Smart Roofing & Restoration. Their estimate was clear and detailed, and their rates were competitive. The solar work was done quickly and efficiently, and the roof repairs were completed in a timely manner. The company was easy to work with, and the crews were all professional and friendly. I recommend them without hesitation. read more

My roof had 3 layers on it and no plywood base. Watching these guys work on a pretty warm day made me so glad I didn't do this for a living the second day a couple hours before they were done it looked like a volcano had erupted in my yard. When they left that day it was really clean and the third and last day even cleaner. The foreman explained everything that was going on and made sure it was all clean before they left. Plus it was way cheaper than I originally thought read more

I typically don't leave reviews but after seeing all the five star reviews, I had to leave my honest opinion. We met with former owner Lloyd back in September 2020 to get a quote on solar and roofing. Everything was great but he was no where to be found after signing the contract. Our issues started when plans were submitted. We engaged and plans were submitted for approval with the city. However, they stated a 125A bus/breaker. When the inspector came out after installation, our service was delayed because actual breaker was 100A. Smart Solar said they would replace the breaker to pass inspection and remove. To be honest, they should have replaced it, left it installed, and absorbed the cost. In the end, they just amended the plans to reflect 100A which delayed things even further. As far as the roofing, I'm still dealing with a leak they have not been able to fix. It doesn't rain much in southern California but when it does, it leaks. They've been out several times and it has been a real inconvenience. In addition, they took shortcuts in replacing the roof tiles - they did not remove the trim tiles and when reinstalling the flat tiles, just slid them underneath so it wasn't a flush fit. I opted to keep my existing cement tiles based on their recommendation that they typically last 50 years. I would look elsewhere if you are looking for quality work. read more

I had an Enphase solar installed by Dr. Lloyd and his team last year. Things were going well until just recently. I didn't realize that he had retired and a new company had taken over. I was hesitant to schedule a service call because I didn't know what to expect. Eventually, I did, and the manager, Mario, showed up, spent a few minutes troubleshooting, and fixed the issue. What a relief!! I look forward to working with this new team on future maintenance or repair. Thank you. read more

IMPRESSIVE Employees & FIRST CLASS SERVICE Rarely am I so impressed with a Company and the people that represent them that I take time to write a glowing review. But I had to applaud two specific people who came to do work in the blistering 108 degree heat on the roof last Friday for Smart Solar So Cal & Roofing -- Brendan & Chase! These guys were very smart & experienced yes but it was their Energy, Focus & Respectfulness that really stood out! It seems like a simple thing, but Chase called ahead to say they were on their way, showed up on time, listened to my Knowledgeable 80 year old client & once Brendan joined us to be further help with the calm confidence he showed assured us both, this was a Company standard -- to hire curious problem-solvers, diligent & thorough. The problem was multi layered. The panels & control equipment both needed repair, updating & troubleshooting. They didn't push for a sale or berate the system, they just noted ways to improve energy production & efficiency. They genuinely listened to our concerns & drew upon their experience, implementing several different immediate solves. They put everything they had into making sure they solved the non-working Solar equipment & panels and went out of their way to climb the roof over and over again to test the system, bypass faulty switches on 29 panels all over the roof of the large home & check each panel that wasn't working while calling the panel manufacturer to measure output. Here's the surprising part....they weren't even the original company that had installed the system! But they made it come to life. While there, they worked with the panel manufacturer to find out which panel microinverters were still under warranty(after 10 years), and could be replaced at no charge to the homeowner. Because of their ernest efforts & trustworthiness, we felt like we would like to upgrade parts of the system to call upon them again. This feeling was a direct result of the excellence both Brendan & Chase showed. I am lucky enough to be able to build & remodel homes for hardworking clients who are simply too busy to manage their own construction and need to continue their work to afford what we do. It's an honor and a big responsibility. Because of that, I have a core group of subs that I trust to help me on a regular basis. These are crews I've vetted for years. They are steadfast tradespeople who care which makes every job turn out better. Occasionally I come back after a remodel and do additional work to help the homeowner. The companies I reach out to need to be just as good as the people who helped me build. So I am always looking for solid Campanies that are an aligned with my objective -- great work, affordable pricing & exceptional customer service. Last Friday I found that in Smart Solar & Roofing. I have high profile clients who are too busy to meet with subs themselves. But I also have clients who are just hard-working folks and do their best to navigate the complicated world of frequently flaky, lackluster & disappointing home maintenance companies. Thankfully, now I can count on Smart Solar & Roofing to fill several needs... not to just do upgrades and repairs of solar systems but after sharing my experience with this company at several client meetings later in the day, I already have 2 more build/remodel clients that are asking for bids on 2 new roofs and 2 full new solar systems. And at this point, I'm going to invite them to my own home to work on my Solar that's been having output inefficiencies in the last year. Thanks for letting me TRUST you, Smart Solar! I won't forget it. read more

I owe this review to Logan and Lloyd for a while now. Ive been deployed for a while and didn't get a chance to leave a review before I left on deployment. I already had solar from a veteran owned company but the panels they estimated was not nearly enough from my home's energy needs. I also learned that my current inverter was maxed out and cant install more panels without changing the entire inverter. So I got a hold of Logan and his system fit my needs and budget. I got my install completed over a couple of weeks. Im almost double my power production and paid the same compared to my older system. I also had Logan install my Nema 14-50 outlet before I even got my EV delivered. Thank you Logan and Lloyd for working with me I hope to be a return customer in the future. Maybe a solar car port for my driveway? I cant recommend Smart Solar enough! read more

Our solar system installation was completed in June 2024 (a little over nine months ago) and we are so happy with our decision. We did not have any "out of pocket" expenses for installation and we no longer have those large electrical bills with SDG&E. Chasen Nick and his staff were a pleasure to work with and Shane (our main installer) did a great job. THANK YOU! Smart Solar read more

Smart Solar Design is a pleasure to work with. They provide excellent and timely communication throughout the solar design and installation process. They also educate the customer about solar industry current events such as NEM2 - NEM3 transition and implications and shady business practices used by less than ethical companies. Shout out to Taylor R. for being my key point of contact and being very communicative throughout the process, and Luis S. for getting my panels turned ON ASAP. Smart Solar is a smaller solar installer, so they are able to provide a higher level of service than the larger businesses. Importantly, they do not contract out the installation to a third party, so if anything goes wrong you know exactly who to call. They were able to beat the price quote of competitors too! This is the first full month of having solar, but my SDGE bill went from ~$450/month to $4/month and I am producing a surplus of energy. Now I feel the need to buy another EV so that I can use up all my free electricity. At this rate, the solar will pay for itself in 4 years! Thanks Smart Solar - highly recommended! P.S. avoid door-to-door solar sales people otherwise you will overpay! read more

I worked with Chasen Nick to get solar installed at my home in 2024, and I would highly recommend him.

And he was extremely knowledgeable about all areas of solar, ensuring I received the best outcome for my needs. I would highly recommend him. read more
