You’re not calling a roofing contractor in Sunnyvale because everything’s fine. Something’s leaking after the last storm. Or your roof’s hitting that 20-year mark and you’re seeing curled shingles and granule loss in the gutters. Maybe your energy bills keep climbing because your attic’s turning into an oven every summer.
Here’s what changes after we fix it. No more tarps and buckets when it rains. No more wondering if this is the year it finally gives out. Your HVAC isn’t fighting a losing battle against a roof that can’t regulate heat anymore.
We assess what’s actually wrong, tell you whether repair or replacement makes sense for your situation, and handle it correctly. Then you get back to not thinking about your roof, which is exactly how it should be.
All Fresh Temp started as an HVAC company in 1985. We spent years in Sunnyvale attics dealing with the aftermath of roof problems before homeowners even knew they had them. Water stains. Insulation damage. Heat radiating through failed barriers.
Homeowners kept asking us to fix their roofs, so we expanded. Same family ownership since Ramiro took over from his father in 2006. Same approach: hire people who know what they’re doing, use materials that hold up in Sunnyvale’s climate, and don’t leave until it’s done right.
We’re a licensed roofing contractor serving Sunnyvale, Willow Glen, Almaden Valley, Campbell, and throughout Santa Clara County. We know what UV exposure does to shingles here. We know how winter rain finds every weak point in flashing. We pull the right permits and follow California’s fire-resistance and energy-efficiency codes because cutting corners costs you more later.
You call because something’s wrong or you’re being proactive about an aging roof. We schedule an inspection and actually get up there to look. Not a drone estimate. Not a guess from the driveway.
We check your shingles for cracks, curling, and granule loss. We examine flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys where leaks usually start. We look at your underlayment condition if we can access it. We assess whether your roof’s damage is localized or if the whole system is compromised.
Then we tell you what we found and what makes sense. If you’ve got 5-10 years left and just need a repair, we’ll say that. If your roof is 20+ years old with widespread deterioration, we’ll explain why replacement saves you money compared to patching problems that’ll keep coming back.
We give you a detailed written estimate. No surprises. We handle permit applications as part of the service. We schedule the work around your timeline when possible, because replacing your roof on your schedule beats doing it as an emergency after the next storm.
Once we start, we protect your property, tear off what needs replacing, inspect the decking, and install new underlayment and shingles designed for Sunnyvale’s climate. When we’re finished, we walk the property with you, provide warranty information, and give you our contact number. Most roofs we install don’t need attention for years.

Sunnyvale’s Mediterranean climate isn’t easy on roofs. You get intense UV exposure most of the year, then heavy rain when winter hits. That accelerates wear on shingles, flashing, and underlayment faster than moderate climates.
Our roofing services in Sunnyvale cover everything from minor leak repairs to complete tear-offs and re-roofs. We work with materials that perform in this specific climate: asphalt shingles that resist UV breakdown, tile roofs that handle heat and fire risk, metal roofing that reflects solar energy instead of absorbing it.
Energy efficiency matters here because traditional dark roofs soak up solar energy and turn your attic into a heat trap. That forces your AC to work harder. We can assess whether energy-efficient roofing materials make sense for your situation, especially if you’re replacing an aging roof anyway.
You’re getting a local roofing contractor who’s worked in this area since 1985. We know Sunnyvale building codes. We know which materials hold up and which ones fail early. We know that most residential roofs here need replacement every 20-30 years depending on material quality and maintenance, and we’ll tell you honestly where yours falls in that timeline.
After installation, you get warranty information in writing, our direct contact number, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing it was done correctly the first time.
Age is the first indicator. If your roof is 15-20 years old, you’re in the zone where problems start showing up. Look for granule loss in your gutters – those protective granules wear off as shingles age. Check for curling or cracked shingles, especially on the south and west-facing slopes that take the most sun exposure in Sunnyvale.
Water stains on your ceiling or in your attic after rain mean moisture is getting through. That’s not always a full replacement situation. Sometimes it’s failed flashing around a chimney or vent. Sometimes it’s a few damaged shingles from wind or a fallen branch.
Here’s the difference: if damage is localized to one area and your roof is under 15 years old, repair usually makes sense. If you’re seeing widespread deterioration across multiple slopes, or if your roof is over 20 years old with recurring leak issues, replacement saves you money long-term. You’re not just fixing one problem – you’re preventing the next five. We’ll assess your specific situation and tell you honestly which route makes sense.
Residential roof replacement in Sunnyvale typically runs between $9,000 and $25,000. That’s a wide range because several factors affect final cost.
Square footage is the biggest factor. A 1,500 square foot roof costs less than a 3,000 square foot roof. Roof pitch matters too – steeper roofs require more safety equipment and labor time. Material choice makes a difference: asphalt shingles are more affordable than tile or metal roofing, though metal and tile last longer and offer better energy efficiency in Sunnyvale’s climate.
Complexity adds cost. If your roof has multiple valleys, skylights, chimneys, or unusual angles, that’s more labor and more flashing work. If we find rotted decking when we tear off the old roof, that needs replacement before new shingles go on.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down material and labor costs. No hidden fees. We handle permit costs as part of the service. And we’ll explain why we’re recommending specific materials for your situation – whether that’s budget-focused asphalt shingles or longer-term solutions like metal roofing that reflects heat instead of absorbing it.
Sunnyvale’s climate is harder on roofs than moderate climates because of intense UV exposure and the wet-dry cycle between summer and winter. That said, a properly installed roof with quality materials still lasts 20-30 years here.
Asphalt shingles typically last 20-25 years in Sunnyvale conditions. The UV radiation breaks down the protective granules over time, and thermal cycling from hot days and cool nights causes expansion and contraction that eventually leads to cracking and curling.
Tile roofs last longer – often 30-50 years – because tile resists UV damage and fire better than asphalt. Metal roofing can last 40-70 years and offers excellent energy efficiency by reflecting solar heat instead of absorbing it. That matters when your roof is baking in summer sun for months straight.
Lifespan also depends on maintenance. Roofs that get annual inspections and minor repairs as needed last longer than roofs that go ignored until major problems develop. We recommend inspections at least once a year, ideally in spring and fall, to catch small issues before they become expensive ones.
Yes. Sunnyvale requires building permits for roof replacement and most major roof repairs. This isn’t bureaucracy for its own sake – permits ensure your roof meets California’s fire-resistance requirements and energy-efficiency codes.
Sunnyvale is in a wildland-urban interface area where fire risk matters. Your new roof needs to meet specific fire ratings. Permits also ensure proper installation methods, adequate ventilation, and compliance with structural requirements that protect your home long-term.
Some homeowners worry permits slow things down or add cost. Here’s the reality: working without permits can void your homeowner’s insurance if something goes wrong. It can create problems when you sell your home if inspections reveal unpermitted work. And if the work isn’t done to code, you’re the one who pays to fix it later.
We handle permit applications as part of our roofing services. We know what Sunnyvale requires, we submit the paperwork, and we schedule inspections. You don’t have to navigate city requirements or take time off work to deal with it. It’s built into our process because doing it right the first time prevents headaches later.
Sunnyvale’s Mediterranean climate means your roof needs to handle intense UV exposure, occasional heavy rain, and significant temperature swings between day and night. Not all materials perform equally here.
Asphalt shingles are the most common choice because they’re affordable and versatile. Quality architectural shingles with UV-resistant granules hold up well for 20-25 years. They’re not the longest-lasting option, but they’re cost-effective and available in styles that match most home designs.
Tile roofing performs exceptionally well in Sunnyvale. Concrete or clay tiles resist fire, handle UV exposure without degrading quickly, and last 30-50 years. They’re heavier than asphalt, so your roof structure needs to support the weight, but they’re a solid long-term investment if your home can handle them.
Metal roofing is gaining popularity here because of energy efficiency. Metal reflects solar radiation instead of absorbing it, which keeps attic temperatures lower and reduces cooling costs. Metal roofs last 40-70 years and handle both UV exposure and rain without the degradation you see with asphalt. The upfront cost is higher, but the lifespan and energy savings often justify it.
We’ll assess your home’s structure, your budget, and your priorities to recommend what makes sense for your specific situation.
For emergency repairs – active leaks, storm damage, situations where your home is exposed to weather – we prioritize getting someone out quickly. Often within 24-48 hours. We’ll tarp or temporarily seal the problem area to prevent further damage, then schedule the permanent repair.
For planned roof replacements, timing depends on our current schedule and permit processing. Spring and fall are the busiest seasons because weather conditions are most predictable. Summer works too, though working on a roof in full Sunnyvale sun isn’t pleasant for anyone. Winter is possible during dry stretches, but rain delays are more common.
We’d rather replace your roof on your schedule than as an emergency after a storm. If you’re seeing signs that your roof is aging out – granule loss, curling shingles, approaching that 20-year mark – calling sooner gives you more control over timing and often better pricing than waiting until you have active leaks.
Once we schedule your project, most residential roof replacements take 2-4 days depending on size and complexity. We’ll give you a clear timeline upfront and keep you updated if anything changes. We don’t leave jobs half-finished or disappear between phases. We show up, do the work, clean up thoroughly, and make sure you’re satisfied before we consider it complete.
