The Roofing Friend helped us replace our stone-tile roof with a steel roof. It's 1/10/2023 and after a few big storms so far so good!

If you would like a stunning, 2-piece Spanish clay tile roof, give Ivan Maldonado at Roofing…read moreSolutions (in Hayward) a call. I guarantee you'll be delighted by the work his team does! I obtained 3 bids for a new roof, replacing my concrete tiles with 2-piece Spanish clay tiles. All 3 roofers seemed competent and planned to use the same materials. Bid #1 was in the stratosphere. Bid #2 (Ivan's) was slightly less than #1. Bid #3 was significantly less than #2. Despite my reservations about the price, Ivan got the contract, because of his responsiveness and because I preferred communicating with him and sensed that he cared the most about doing quality work. Having lived under the burden of a defective roof for 18 years, I have learned that choosing a roofer who cares about doing quality work matters more than price. The experience with Roofing Solutions was very positive, resulting in a beautiful work of art that catches your eye even a block away. At the end of the project, as Ivan and I stood in the street admiring his work, neighbors pulled up in their cars to express their admiration. Ivan's team did a great job throughout. The only major disappointment was a large change order that drove the already very high price even higher. The issue was a lot of rotted wood that needed placement. But even that wasn't entirely unexpected given that my roof had leaked for years. Plus, the extent of rot can't be fully determined until the existing roof is taken up. It became increasingly clear, as the project evolved, that Ivan was personally invested in ensuring a top-quality end result, which he could add to his portfolio. His business is on the younger side, and he wants to grow it, so reputation building and positive "word of mouth" is important to him. That was comforting and gave me confidence that proper attention would be given to details. Everything that Ivan promised during contract negotiations turned out to be true, including the timeline. Work was unavoidably delayed a month because the tile supplier was slow to deliver materials; Ivan intervened very assertively with the tile supplier to ensure that the delay wasn't worse. When work started, it took 2 weeks, just like Ivan predicted. The team was always extremely efficient, professional, respectful, and clean. If I noticed a stray water bottle in the bushes, which was rare, it would always disappear by the end of the workday, as would any other traces. Getting a new roof is loud! But the team was as unobtrusive as the nature of the work allowed, and they left no footprints. Every flowerpot and piece of furniture that was moved was restored to its original location. Nothing was damaged. I like that no subcontractors were used. Everyone on the roof was on Ivan's regular, permanent team. Ivan himself was there every day, which I also appreciated. He regularly texted me pictures and progress updates. I like the fact that he has a permanent team. They work well together, and 3 of them are brothers. I think with a regular, permanent team working under the watchful eye of an attentive boss who cares about his reputation, workmanship problems are less likely. It is a pleasure interacting with Ivan, and he's the most responsive contractor I've encountered. He always responds extremely fast to any questions, whether you text, call, or email. You never have to remind him of anything or ask twice. Whenever I tried to remind him of something that needed to be done, the response was that it was already done. When I texted him to ask if he could give me the remote controls for the new skylights the next time he was on site, he texted back immediately that he'd send one of his guys up with them right away. And within 10-15 minutes my doorbell was ringing. Whatever else Ivan may have been doing during those 2 weeks, he always made me feel like I had his undivided attention. With a roof, the most important thing is the installation of the underlayment beneath the tiles. No matter how good a roof looks, you can't truly know the quality of the workmanship until 5, 10, or even 20 years have passed. But on the professionalism of the execution as I observed it from the ground, and on the aesthetics, Ivan's team gets an A+. And the care and attention to detail that I observed gives me confidence that the underlayment was installed correctly. I am also fully confident that Ivan takes sufficient pride in his work that if any issues were to arise, he'd address them. Overall, by the time the project ended and I had observed the work that went into it, my concerns about the price had lessened. I would not hesitate to use Ivan again for any future roofing projects or to recommend him unreservedly to others for any roofing project. Regardless of the materials you choose, his team will give your roof the same care, professionalism, and attention that they gave mine.

They might be fine for new roofs but don't call them for repairs. Danny came out to inspect our…read moreroof and immediately recommended a new roof. He didn't offer an option for repair until I asked and instead went straight into discussing shingle colors and availability. Typical sales scare tactics were used like telling us a leak was from condensation due to the lack of ridge vents. We have gable vents and so does every other house on the block. By his logic, every old house without ridge vents should be leaking water. I've been in my attic, there's no condensation issue. Their price for a new roof seems fair but given our roof is 12-15 years old with two leaks, it's far from needing a full replacement. They also offered no warranty if we went with a repair. He also estimated my roof to be 25 years old when my home inspection and other roofers estimated 10-15 years old.

Our concrete tile roof was in its 37th year and all of the valleys were showing rust. The type of…read moreconcrete tile has been discontinued for many years and it was a real pain to replace the broken tiles after a bad storm. The roof on the backside was pretty cooked. We also wanted to put solar panels on our roof. There was no way I was going to put solar panels on a 30 year roof that was in its 37th year. Time to replace. Vincent Roofing was referred from Kenny with Crawford Sheet and Metal so I knew this company was going to be a solid choice. Don was very professional from start to finish. I was impressed with his years of experience, the roofing materials he used, and the work crew. Desirrae was also great with coordinating schedules, communicating, and was very responsive if I had a question. The guys were prompt every morning and cleaned up very well. The whole process went smoothly. Highly recommend Vincent Roofing has a great work ethic and it shows in all areas of presentation: Don stopping by to give a quote, presentation the contract, and the ease of paying online. I felt this company is up to date with the latest technology and has chosen carefully the amazing work crew that was on my roof the duration of the job. Our home has a great curb appeal with the new roof and it looks so elegant now. Neighbors were asking Don for a quote as well!

It can be really difficult to find a good roofer. For years, we tried different companies, with…read moremixed results. We finally found a really good one, but unfortunately, he retired a few years ago. We discovered Vincent roofing shortly after that. We're pleased to find that they're even better than the roofer we had previously. Vincent Roofing is a family run business. We like working with small businesses like this one because they often place a high value on their family reputations and value their customer relationships. Don is a skilled roofer who places a high emphasis on customer service. Scheduling is coordinated by his sister, Desire. She has been great to work with. As our roof has aged, we have experienced many roofing issues. Desire has done a really good job of working us into the schedule, sometimes on short notice. During the last rainy season, she was able to schedule us in on a few occasions right after it rained, which can be really busy time for roofers. Don has a high level of technical skill. We had a leak in our ceiling which appeared to originate from the roof vent pipe from the bathroom. After some diagnostic work, Don advised that the root cause was likely from the pipe itself, not the seal at the roof. He was correct. By repairing the pipe, we avoided costly and unnecessary roof work. We have found Vincent Roofing to be very trustworthy. At larger roofing companies, they sometimes dispatch a sales person to quote the project and then send a separate crew to do the work. Sometimes, the crew might be good, and other times not. Don personally visits each site to diagnose the problem and then returns with a crew and personally does the work. We're very happy with the service we've received with Vincent Roofing. 5 Stars!

After screening 5 different contractors, I've decided to go with Hernandez's Roofing and I was so glad that I made the right decision. Of the 5 contractors, Hernandez Roofing offered the best price for the project. During the demo they discovered some wood that needed to be replaced or repaired and the additional amount was very minimal. Alex's crew were very well trained, knowledgeable and well organized. They clean up daily after work and are always on time to start the day. If I have another roofing project, I would definitely contact Alex again. Hernandez Roofing (Alex) and his team are highly recommended!

Most companies either declined the job as a standalone project or pushed for a full roof replacement instead. Alex reached out the next day for a bit more information, and shortly after, he sent a detailed quote for tarping the roof, complete with photos of the area he planned to work on. My husband was impressed; we're pretty sure he was the only one who actually climbed up on a ladder to inspect the roof, which our neighbor later confirmed. His team arrived on time, worked efficiently, and did an excellent job. After they finished, Alex sent another set of photos, which I truly appreciated since I wouldn't have been able to see the work from the ground. I highly recommend Hernandez's Roofing to anyone in need of roofing services. Their professionalism, quality of work, and outstanding customer service exceeded my expectations!

As any long time California resident knows, we don't get a lot of rain compared to other areas of the country. Because of climate change, we have started experiencing atmospheric river storms as witnessed in the last few weeks. We experienced a leak during the week between Christmas and New Years and when I called their office, I learned that they were closed until Monday, January 5. Well to my surprise. I received a call back from their office asking about the severity of the leak and whether I needed immediate help or could it wait until they had everyone back to work on the 5th. I had a bucket collecting water and the leak was small enough that I decided it could wait. On the 5th, I received a call back from the office asking if they could send two repair people that afternoon to inspect and repair the issue. I was not home but my wife was, and she said that the gentlemen were prompt and thorough and explained what they saw and what did to correct the leak. I am not writing this as a novice to the problems in the construction industry, I am now retired but worked 40+ years in the window and door portion of the industry from owning my own company and working in sales for a billion-dollar wood window company (Marvin Windows and Doors). If anyone knows of Marvin, they are a company that prides themselves in producing one of the best wood windows in the industry as well as providing exceptional service. Well, Wonderlin is right there with them. I will continue recommend them to anyone looking for a new roof and not having a lot of issues to worry about.

My partner and I happened to get a leak in our roof in basically the luckiest possible place, so we…read moresaw it as soon as it started and it wasn't serious yet, but obviously we still needed it fixed. So we got in touch with ELM Roofing and had them come out to do an inspection. Lucas was great. He identified the issue quickly, stepped us through what our options were, and kept us in the loop the entire time. He checked the roof out with a drone, since it was too high to run a single ladder up, and we got to watch the neighbor's resident hummingbirds go nuts trying to threaten it away. Evidently hummingbirds hate drones! We had our entire roof and the garage roof replaced, because the builder had cheaped out on underlayment materials and is a pain to get to fix anything under warranty. So, y'know, forget him, but this isn't a review about him. We've got a much tougher underlayment now, all the chipped tiles we had have been replaced, and it is quite honestly better than new now. They did clean work, too. Didn't mess up the yard at all, they were fastidious about noise levels and allowed work times, everything you'd hope a certified contractor would do (but do they? Well...many don't, believe me). Quick and thorough, and when the project got interrupted by rain, they kept us informed about that, too. They came out on a Saturday to get ahead of the weather and even let us know exactly what the local weekend construction ordinances were ahead of time so we'd know what to expect. I think that's what I'd say about them the most: No surprises. They don't do anything unexpected with the final invoice, they don't jerk you around, they don't treat you like you won't understand what they're doing. You're fully in the loop at all times and you're treated as a partner in the project. You get exactly the work and quality promised. And it's good work, with a 20 year guarantee. I'd highly recommend them.
