Winter Roofing Inc. installs and repairs all types of roofs for residential, commercial, and industrial clients throughout the Greater Bay Area. The company has the in-house capabilities to handle every step of the roofing process, from the initial estimate to the finishing touches, and it’s also qualified to perform roof inspections, install sun tunnels, and more.
President Javier Martinez credits much of Winter Roofing’s success to its detail-oriented, hands-on business practices. “We’re very meticulous about quality control, so we check each phase of a project before considering it complete and make sure we’re doing everything to the client’s exact specifications,” he says. “By utilizing our wide-ranging skills and years of experience, we’re able to finish every job on time and on budget.”
Winter Roofing provides free estimates and consultation services on every project, which Mr. Martinez says is important for establishing trust with prospective clients. “Roofing projects can be stressful, so we make sure to take care of all the hard work so our customers can relax. They know they can trust us to handle everything, and they really appreciate that.”
“We listen to each client's roofing needs; their roof isn't just another job. Our goals are simple: provide high-quality roofing services at fair prices and help our clients make choices that fulfill their specific needs. We believe service is important for ensuring lifelong customers, so we focus on meeting their goals and doing the job perfectly the first time.”
If you’re having a new roof installed on your home, make sure you’re prepared for the possibility of rain.
The Bay Area is known for its temperate climate and dry summers, but it’s also known for rainstorms that strike at unexpected times, which can make it particularly difficult to schedule a roofing project. Usually, it’s safe to schedule roofing work during the summer, but sometimes an unexpected stretch of wet weather will pop up and force a reschedule. While that can be inconvenient, most homeowners understand that it’s smart to wait until the threat of rain has passed to begin their roofing projects.
If you can’t wait to start your roofing project and you’re flexible to inclement weather, there are some benefits to scheduling work in the spring or even winter:
Scheduling may be easier.
Most homeowners schedule roofing projects for summer, so the best companies can get booked up weeks or even months in advance. Also, the labor market tightens up during the summer, so it can be easier for roofing companies to provide full crews and get work done faster during off-months.
Prices may be lower.
Some roofing manufacturers and contractors charge higher prices when demand is higher—usually in the summer when rain is rare and homeowners are clamoring for new roofs. In some cases, you can save 10 to 15 percent by booking your installation during the off-season.
The conditions are better for setting roofs.
Hot weather can loosen the UV-protecting granules on shingles, and installing and walking on them can increase the likelihood of the granules flaking off. Scheduling your installation on cooler winter days can preserve the shingles.
The conditions are better for roofers.
Mild winter weather means safer and more comfortable working conditions for roofers, who may be able to work longer and faster than on hot summer days.
Maintaining customer satisfaction is a crucial aspect of any business, but it's even more important for roofing contractors that have earned the prestigious Diamond Certified award. For Winter Roofing Inc., the key to achieving and maintaining high levels of customer satisfaction is simple: take a low-pressure approach to every job so the client feels comfortable throughout each step of the process. "We're always honest with our clients, and we never pressure them," says President Javier Martinez. "We clearly explain their options and give them detailed information so they can make smart decisions for their homes and businesses, and they really appreciate that."
Winter Roofing has been installing, repairing and maintaining roofs for residential, commercial, and industrial clients throughout the Greater Bay Area since 1992. The company has the training and equipment to handle every step of the roofing process, from the initial estimate to the finishing touches, and it also has the in-house capabilities to perform roof inspections, clean gutters, install sun tunnels, and more.
Unlike less experienced roofing companies that hire subcontractors to handle aspects like demolition, gutter systems and even roof installations, Winter Roofing handles every step of its customers' roofing projects in-house. "We can do anything our customers need, from old roof tear-offs to new roof installations," affirms Mr. Martinez. "Our clients know they'll only be working with one company throughout their projects, which makes them more confident that everything will be done to their exact specifications."
Another distinguishing attribute of Winter Roofing is its dedication to quality control in every aspect of its work. "We closely inspect each step of the roofing process to make sure we're adhering to high levels of quality, and we never charge for our work until it passes a mandatory third-party inspection," explains Mr. Martinez. "Everyone who works here gets a lot of personal satisfaction from a job well done, and that puts our services on another level."
