A good share of the roofs SQ Roofing Inc. has installed over the past 30 years came from one neighbor mentioning us to another. That’s simply how it works in Ceres, Modesto, Turlock and the towns around them — people talk, and a roofing company only lasts here if the work holds up and the homeowner felt looked after while it was being done. Which is why the reviews below carry more weight with us than any advertisement could. They come from our actual neighbors: people who let us onto their roof, watched how we handled what we found underneath, and then chose to say something about it publicly. We read every one. When a homeowner tells us we explained things clearly, cleaned up after ourselves, or came back when we said we would, that’s the standard we’re trying to hold to on the next roof. And when someone tells us we fell short, we’d rather hear it and make it right than never know. Every roof we install carries our name and our license on it — in a valley this close-knit, that’s the only reputation worth having.
FAQ
These come up on nearly every consultation. If one of them is the reason you’re on this page, you’re in good company.
Sometimes a repair genuinely is the right call, and we'll tell you so. A single failed flashing detail or a handful of slipped tiles doesn't require tearing off a roof that has years left in it. What changes the answer is the condition of the system as a whole — if the shingles are cupping and shedding granules across the entire slope, or if the underlayment beneath the tile has gone brittle, then patching is buying months and spending money twice. We'd rather walk a homeowner through that reasoning on the roof than hand over a number and leave.
A re-roof is loud and it is dusty, and we won't pretend otherwise. Most residential re-roofs wrap up within a few days, though roof size, material and anything found at tear-off can move that. We'll give you a proposed schedule with the estimate, and we clean up the site — including sweeping for nails — before we leave.
In almost every install and re-roof, yes. Requirements and fees vary from city to city and county to county across the Valley, which catches a lot of people off guard. SQ Roofing Inc. handles the process and walks homeowners through it step by step, and works with the inspector through final sign-off.
Ask to be shown. Any roofer worth hiring should be able to point at the specific thing that's failing and explain why it matters, in language that makes sense. That's part of why we photograph what we find — so there's a record of the condition, not just an opinion about it. It's also worth getting more than one assessment. A contractor who's confident in the diagnosis won't be bothered by that.
It happens. Rot in the decking, rafter tails that have taken on water, a previous repair done badly — none of it is visible until the old roof comes off. When we find something, work stops and we talk to the homeowner before anything else happens. Nobody should learn about a change in scope from the invoice.
Move what you can out from under it, put a container down, and if there's a sagging bubble in the ceiling, that's trapped water — it's usually better to relieve it deliberately with a small hole and a bucket than to let it come down on its own. Then call us. We'd rather look at a roof in the middle of a wet week than wait for it to dry out and forget about it.
