Santa Rosa Home with New Gutters

Santa Rosa, CA

A Complete Roofing System Transformation in Santa Rosa

When this Santa Rosa homeowner called us out, it was clear this roof had lived past its prime. The aging system was well beyond its serviceable life, with rusting gutters, compromised penetration flashings throughout, and a chimney that no longer met modern building code. The mortar was failing, the flashing was shot, and the insulation? Gone. What this home needed wasn’t a patch job — it needed a full transformation from the ground up.

The Full Tear-Down

We started by stripping the entire roofing system down to the plywood — no shortcuts, no layovers. Every old component came off: shingles, underlayment, gutters, downspouts, and all of the degraded insulation. Once we had a clean slate, we got to work the right way.

Before any insulation went back in, we took the time to seal and block every potential rodent entry point in the attic space, giving this homeowner peace of mind that goes well beyond a new roof. New insulation was then sprayed to the precise thickness required to meet current building code R-values — a standard the old system hadn’t seen in years.

A Modern, High-Performance Roofing System

With a clean, properly insulated, and sealed attic in place, we installed a full GAF Charcoal HDZ shingle system — one of the most trusted names in roofing — complete with all-new penetration flashings, updated ventilation, and a higher-CFM exhaust fan designed to reduce ambient temperatures in the home year-round. Every detail of the chimney flashing was brought up to current code, the way it should be.

The Finishing Touches

To wrap it all up, we installed brand-new gutters and premium stainless steel leaf guards — built to last and designed to keep maintenance to a minimum for years to come.

The Result

From start to finish, the entire project was completed in one working week. Every scheduled inspection passed on the first attempt — a reflection of the quality and care that went into every phase of this job. This Santa Rosa home didn’t just get a new roof. It got a complete, code-compliant, high-performance system built to protect the family inside for decades to come.
