06Sequence

Four steps, no surprises

The Sacramento County permit named, and a written quote before any work.

01

Call with what you are seeing

Tell us the address and what is happening: a stain, a drip, a limb on the roof, shingles in the yard, or a roof you already know is due.

02

Look at the roof, then the attic

Valleys, step flashing, vent boots and ridge caps, then the deck from the attic where there is one.

03

A written quote that names the County

The repair or the roof in plain language.

04

The work, the inspection, then the…

Photographs before and after, the County's final on a re-roof, and a walk around the finished job with you before the final payment.

07Details

What needs a roofer today, and what can wait

Most of this costs nothing, and none of it needs a ladder.

Detail 1

Call today

  • Daylight in the atticIf you can see sky through the deck, rain will find the same gap. That is a repair today, whatever happens next.
  • A limb through the roofStay out from under it. The cover goes on once the limb is safely off, and the re-roof question waits for daylight.
  • A sagging section of roofA dip you can see from the street is soft decking or worse, and it is not something to leave through the winter rains.
Detail 2

Can wait for a booking

  • A composition roof past 20 years that is still dry
  • Comparing composition shingle against metal
  • Finding out how many layers are already on

Not urgent? Book a time that suits you, and still get the estimated range on the call.

09Before we arrive

What to do before anybody climbs a ladder

  1. Catch the water and photograph itA bucket under the drip, belongings moved, and a few photographs of the stain before anything is touched. Keep clear of wet ceilings near a light fixture and switch that circuit off if it is safe to.
  2. Look up at the treesA limb on the roof, a branch hanging over it, or a valley you can see packed with leaves. Each one tells the roofer where to look first, and none of it needs a ladder.
  3. Count what you know about the roofIts age if you know it, any earlier re-roof, and whether it has been done over once already. Layers matter here, because the County's overlay inspection allows two in total.
  4. Ask for the County on the quoteFor a re-roof: the Sacramento County permit, who pulls it, overlay or tear-off, and the inspection that follows. For a repair: a written answer on whether anything needs the County at all.

Note 01Do you need a permit to get your roof redone?

In Carmichael, yes, and it comes from Sacramento County rather than a city, because Carmichael is unincorporated. Sacramento County Building Permits and Inspection issues a residential re-roof with no structural changes online once the fee is paid, and the County inspects the job: an overlay or a nail and tear-off inspection, then a final. The contractor doing the work should pull it and name it on the quote.

Note 02What to look for when choosing a roofing contractor?

A CSLB C-39 roofing license you can check, a written quote after they have seen the roof, and a down payment within California's cap of $1,000 or 10% of the price, whichever is less. In Carmichael add one more: the quote should name the Sacramento County re-roof permit and who pulls it, because there is no city office to do it for you.

Note 03What is the cheapest way to repair a roof?

Fix the actual failure once, as early as possible. On a Carmichael roof that often means clearing and rebuilding a valley packed with leaves, or replacing the shingles a branch tore, rather than sealant over the top that has to be redone after the next storm. Ask for that repair priced on its own, before anyone talks about a bigger job.

Note 04What are five signs that my roof needs to be replaced?

Leaks in more than one place at once; shingles that crack or break whenever they are lifted; shingles curling or bare of granules across whole slopes; a sag you can see from the street; and daylight through the deck in the attic. Roofers here put composition shingle at about 20 to 25 years in Sacramento Valley heat, so age is a prompt for a look, not a verdict. One sign by itself is usually a repair.
