Built for wind exposure, foggy mornings, and winter storms that push water uphill at flashings. From fast leak repair to full roof replacements, we design systems that last in El Cerrito and across Contra Costa County.
Every city has its own “roofing problems.” In El Cerrito, we plan around wind exposure, foggy mornings, and winter storms that push water uphill at flashings — then build a system that stays watertight where it matters most: edges, valleys, penetrations, and transitions.
We regularly work on bungalow and mid-century shingle systems, occasional flat/low-slope sections, and gutter upgrades. We match materials to your home’s style and your performance goals — durability, ventilation, and clean curb appeal.
Serving El Cerrito Hills, Arlington, and the neighborhoods near San Pablo Avenue — plus nearby Berkeley, Richmond, and the windy East Bay ridge. If your roof has an active leak, we prioritize fast scheduling and clear next steps.
If you’re in or near these areas, we can usually schedule a fast inspection and provide a clear, photo-backed plan for repair or replacement.

Read the El Cerrito Roofing GuideEl Cerrito rooftops can be exposed to wind, foggy mornings, and sideways rain — especially on higher elevations. These conditions punish weak flashing and old vent seals. We focus on watertight transitions and wind-rated materials that hold up near the ridgelines.
Pinpoint the entry point fast, reseal flashings, and restore watertight protection.

Learn moreIn El Cerrito we typically recommend wind-rated architectural shingles, full flashing replacement, and upgraded vent/pipe boot systems. If your home is on a windy hill, we also add enhanced starter/hip/ridge fastening and reinforced edge metal to reduce lift risk.
Address the usual weak points: wind uplift at ridge/edges. We upgrade flashings and seal transitions so water can’t find a path in.
In storms, leak points around skylights/vents causes most of the damage. We size and route gutters/downspouts to move water away efficiently.
gutter/downspout overflow in storms shortens roof life when ignored. We recommend the right shingle class, ventilation, and protective details for longevity.
No confusion, no surprises — you get a clear scope, clean execution, and a roof that’s built to last.
