What do I need to know before requesting a quote?
- Roughly how old the roof is. If you aren't sure, your city's permit records, your purchase inspection report or the seller's disclosures often show the last reroof.
- What's prompting the question. Leaks, an insurance letter, selling or buying, or just planning ahead all change how quickly a roofer should come out.
- The roof type. Shingle, tile, metal, wood shake or a flat roof each need a different kind of roofer.
What happens after I submit?
- We review the request and pass it to an independent, licensed roofer who works in the North Bay.
- The roofer calls, texts (if you opted in) or emails to schedule an inspection.
- You get a written estimate. Compare it with other bids if you like; our cost guide explains how.
Who will contact me, and what does it cost?
An independent roofing contractor licensed by the Contractors State License Board in the C-39 roofing classification. The estimate is free for homeowners and there's no obligation. Check any contractor's license yourself on CSLB's website.
Do you handle roof repairs too?
This site is for full roof replacement. If you only need a small repair, say so in the form and we'll tell you if we can help; a single leak on a roof with life left is usually a repair, as our repair or replace guide explains.
Which areas do you cover?
Marin, Sonoma and Napa counties, including San Rafael, Novato, Mill Valley, Larkspur, Sausalito, Petaluma, Santa Rosa, Rohnert Park, Sebastopol, Healdsburg, Sonoma, Napa, American Canyon, St. Helena and Calistoga.
Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to hear back?
We pass requests to the roofer promptly, and the roofer contacts you directly to schedule an inspection. If anything is leaking right now, say so in the form.
Is the estimate really free?
Yes. The roofer's inspection and written estimate are free for homeowners and you're never obligated to hire anyone.
Do I have to own the home?
The roofer will need the owner's approval to replace a roof. Renters should ask their landlord to request the quote.
Will you share my information?
Only with the roofer handling your request, so they can contact you about it. We never sell your information. See our privacy policy.
