You stop worrying every time the forecast calls for heavy rain. Water stains don’t appear on your ceiling after winter storms, and you’re not scrambling to find tarps when the wind picks up.
Your energy bills stay reasonable because your attic isn’t turning into an oven every summer. Proper ventilation can drop attic temperatures by 20 to 30 degrees, which means your AC isn’t working overtime just to keep your home comfortable.
Your insurance stays valid. Your property value holds. And when you eventually sell, buyers don’t walk away after the inspection because some contractor years ago skipped permits or used subpar materials. A roof done right the first time saves you from expensive redos and protects what you’ve built in one of California’s most exclusive communities.
We’ve been operating in San Jose and Santa Clara County since 1985. Ramiro took over from his father in 2006 and kept the same approach: hire skilled people, use quality materials, and treat every property like it matters.
We’ve earned Diamond Certified and Super Service awards because we understand what’s at stake when you’re maintaining a home in Lexington Hills. The mountainous terrain, the fire risk, the heavy winter rains—these aren’t abstract concerns. They’re daily realities that require a roofing contractor who knows the area and respects the investment you’ve made.
We’re licensed, insured, and we pull the permits required for roofing work in California. That’s not optional when you’re protecting a property worth over a million dollars.
First, we inspect your roof and talk through what’s failing, what’s at risk, and what your options are. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying for before any work starts.
Next, we handle the permit applications and coordinate with the building department. You don’t chase down inspections or worry about compliance—we schedule everything and make sure it passes. For high-value properties in unincorporated areas, this step matters more than most homeowners realize.
Then we install your roof using materials built for this climate. Metal roofing reflects up to 70% of solar radiation. Tile lasts 60-plus years and handles the UV exposure and temperature swings that wear down cheaper materials. We’re not upselling you—we’re matching the solution to the problem.
Finally, we clean up and walk you through the finished work. You get documentation for your records, warranty information, and a roof that keeps your home dry, your family safe, and your property value intact.

You’re getting a roofing contractor who understands that Lexington Hills sits in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone. That means Class A fire ratings aren’t optional—they’re essential. We install roofs with the fire resistance your insurance company requires and your family deserves.
You’re also getting solutions for the flooding risks that come with heavy rainfall in mountainous areas. Proper drainage, correct flashing, and materials that won’t fail when water pools during storms. San Jose’s intense UV exposure and winter rains accelerate wear on roofing materials faster than most climates, so we use systems designed to handle both extremes.
We’ve been serving Willow Glen, Almaden Valley, Campbell, and throughout the South Bay long enough to know the building codes, the climate challenges, and what actually holds up over time. When homeowners in Lexington Hills call us, they’re not getting a generic pitch—they’re getting 40 years of local expertise applied to their specific property.
And because we’ve been here since 1985, we’re still around when you need warranty service. That matters more than most people think when they’re comparing bids.
Most roof replacements in Lexington Hills run between $15,000 and $40,000, depending on size, pitch, material choice, and whether you’re dealing with multiple stories or complex angles. Metal roofing costs more upfront but lasts decades longer than asphalt shingles. Tile roofing can last 60-plus years and handles this climate extremely well, but it’s heavier and requires proper structural support.
The real cost isn’t just the installation—it’s what happens if the job isn’t done right. Unpermitted work can kill a property sale or force you into expensive redos when a buyer’s inspector flags it. Insurance companies deny claims when they find out roofing work wasn’t permitted. And cheap materials fail faster in California’s intense UV exposure and temperature swings, which means you’re paying twice.
If you’re planning to stay in your home long-term, investing in quality materials and proper installation saves you money over time. If you’re selling soon, a documented, permitted roof replacement protects your sale and justifies your asking price in a market where buyers expect everything done correctly.
Class A fire-rated materials are what you need in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone. Metal roofing and tile both meet that standard and hold up well against embers and radiant heat. Asphalt shingles can also achieve Class A ratings, but they don’t last as long in California’s climate and they absorb more heat, which drives up cooling costs.
Metal roofing reflects up to 70% of solar radiation, which keeps your attic cooler and reduces the load on your AC system. It’s lightweight, durable, and doesn’t crack or curl the way shingles do after years of UV exposure. Tile is heavier but incredibly durable—it handles temperature swings, resists fire, and lasts longer than most other materials.
Your insurance company cares about fire ratings because they directly affect risk. Homes with Class A roofs are cheaper to insure and easier to sell in fire-prone areas. If you’re replacing your roof in Lexington Hills, choosing materials with proper fire resistance isn’t just smart—it’s necessary for protecting your investment and keeping your coverage valid.
Yes. Any roofing work over $500 in California requires a permit, and Lexington Hills falls under Santa Clara County jurisdiction. That means your roofing contractor needs to pull permits, schedule inspections, and make sure everything meets current building codes before the work is signed off.
Skipping permits might save time upfront, but it creates serious problems later. When you sell your property, the buyer’s inspector will check permit records. If they find unpermitted work, the sale can fall apart or you’ll be forced to bring everything up to code at your expense. Insurance companies also deny claims if they discover unpermitted roofing work, which means you’re on the hook for repairs after storm damage or fire.
A licensed roofing contractor handles permits as part of the job. We submit the applications, coordinate with the building department, and schedule the required inspections. You don’t chase down paperwork or worry about compliance—we make sure it’s done right so your investment is protected and your property records stay clean.
Most residential roof replacements take three to five days once work starts, depending on the size of your home, the pitch of your roof, and the material you’re installing. Metal roofing and tile take longer than asphalt shingles because the installation process is more involved, but the tradeoff is decades of extra durability.
Weather can delay timelines, especially during winter when heavy rains make roofing work unsafe. We don’t rush jobs just to hit a deadline—working on a wet roof leads to mistakes, and mistakes on a million-dollar property aren’t acceptable. If conditions aren’t right, we wait until they are.
The permit process also affects timing. Once we submit the application, the county schedules inspections based on their availability. We coordinate everything so you’re not waiting around, but building departments operate on their own schedules. A good roofing contractor builds that time into the project timeline so you know what to expect from the start.
A licensed roofing contractor in California holds a C-39 license, which means they’ve passed state exams, carry proper insurance, and are legally allowed to pull permits for roofing work. A “roofer” might just be a crew doing installations without the licensing, insurance, or legal authority to handle permits and inspections.
That distinction matters in Lexington Hills because your property value and insurance coverage depend on documented, permitted work. If someone without a contractor’s license installs your roof, you’re personally liable if something goes wrong. You also can’t get permits pulled, which creates problems when you sell or file an insurance claim.
We’re a licensed roofing contractor, which means we handle permits, carry insurance, and stand behind our work with warranties that actually mean something. We’ve been operating in Santa Clara County since 1985, so we’re not disappearing after the job is done. When you hire a licensed contractor, you’re protecting yourself legally and financially—not just getting a roof installed.
If you’re seeing water stains on your ceiling, missing shingles after a storm, or daylight coming through your attic, you’ve got problems that need attention now. But not every issue requires a full replacement—sometimes targeted repairs buy you a few more years if the rest of the roof is still solid.
Age is the biggest factor. Asphalt shingles last 15 to 20 years in California’s climate before UV exposure and temperature swings break them down. Metal roofing lasts 40-plus years. Tile can go 60 years or more. If your roof is approaching the end of its expected lifespan and you’re starting to see multiple issues, replacement makes more sense than patching problems one at a time.
We’ll inspect your roof and tell you honestly what’s failing and what your options are. If repairs will hold for a few more years, we’ll say that. If the underlying structure is compromised or the material is too far gone, we’ll explain why replacement is the smarter move. You’re not getting upsold—you’re getting a straight answer based on 40 years of experience in the South Bay.
