Independence Roofing Contractor. GAF Certified

Replacing your roof isn't just about shingles. We install ice and water shield in the valleys and along eaves, synthetic underlayment across the whole deck, new drip edge on rake and eave, starter strip, and ridge vent. That's how a roof lasts 30 years in California.

Step flashing at chimney walls is the number one leak source we see in Independence. Improper step flashing causes roof leaks. It's that simple. We install new step flashing with a chimney cricket for proper water diversion, sealed with Geocel tripolymer sealant. Fix it once, fix it right.

Wind speeds over 60 mph cause shingle tab lift and seal failure. Hail over 1" diameter causes fractures through the shingle mat to the fiberglass reinforcement. Our HAAG-trained inspectors know the difference between cosmetic damage and functional damage. That distinction determines your insurance payout.

Building a new home in Independence? Our crew works directly with your GC or we self-perform. We handle everything from the decking up: underlayment, ventilation design, material installation, and final inspection.

Standing seam metal lasts 40-60 years with practically zero maintenance. Higher upfront cost than shingles, but you'll never replace it again. Our Independence metal crews do residential and commercial.

Three-tab shingles are cheaper upfront but they don't hold up like architectural. We recommend them for sheds, detached garages, and rental properties where budget matters more than aesthetics. For your Independence home? Go architectural.

Flat roof leaks usually happen at penetrations, seams, or flashing details. We locate the source, repair it properly, and coat the surrounding area. If the membrane is shot, we'll recommend replacement. Not a band-aid.

Our Independence commercial crews handle everything from small retail strip centers to 50,000 sq ft warehouses. TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, metal. We're certified installers for all major commercial membrane systems.

Gutters aren't glamorous, but they're protecting your foundation, your fascia, and your landscaping. We install seamless aluminum gutters custom-formed on-site from a roll of coil stock. No seams means no leaks.

Infrared moisture scanning available for Independence commercial and flat roof inspections. Thermal imaging locates trapped moisture in the insulation layer without cutting core samples. We use Flir E8 cameras to map wet areas, then core sample only the suspect zones to confirm. Saves time, reduces disruption, and gives you a precise repair scope instead of a guess.

After we tarp and secure your roof, we document everything for insurance purposes. Photos, measurements, damage descriptions. Your adjuster gets a professional report, not a handwritten note.

We install, replace, and repair skylights in Independence homes. Fogged glass, cracked frames, persistent leaks around old skylights. We fix it all. Sometimes replacing a 20-year-old skylight is cheaper than trying to repair it.
