Flat Roof Leaks & New Roofing

A new flat roof gets installed in Stockton. Visit www.roofcertified.com for info.


Lots of detail work on this new TPO flat roof installation in Stockton CA. The existing roof surface had been roofed over 3 times without fixing the fundamental flat roof issues,  mainly drainage. The roof surfaced drained every which way and the roof drains were dilapidated.

We stripped the roofing down to the wood & removed all of the old roof drains as well. After some plumbing changes we will install the new roof drains. When the new flat roof is completed it will also greatly improve the reflectivity of the roof surface, reducing the cooling cost in the living space.

Finally, be sure to Always Hire Local for roofing because if there is ever an issue your local roofing contractor is there for you!

What is a Roof Inspection?

What is a Roof Inspection?

It seems like the answer would be obvious. A qualified roof inspector (a licensed inspector that is aware of building codes, manufactures specifications and  industry standards) checks out the roof & then provides a report providing all of the  information   about the roof that may be relevant to the parties involved.
It is not nearly that simple, the reason is that the majority of the roof inspections done in San Joaquin & Sacramento Counties  completely subjective.
What is a "subjective" roof inspection?
sub·jec·tive / adjective  1.based on or influenced by personal feelings, tastes, or opinions. /  "his views are highly subjective" -  in other words, not based on fact, why would anyone want a roof inspection or  roof certification that is not based on fact?
Finally...make sure your inspector is ACTUALLY LOCAL by checking with the city here.
Now that you know the facts, the rest is up to you! Don't buy into the hidden fees and disclaimers.
