Are you looking for a licensed crew to stop a leak or replace a worn roof in San Jose? Long, dry summers cook asphalt shingles on west-facing planes. Tile on older ranch homes can leak even when the tiles look fine, because the underlayment underneath is tired. Low-slope additions over family rooms collect standing water.

Roof leak repair in San Jose
The first hard rain after a dry summer finds open valleys, tired pipe seals, and cracked tile pans. We trace the leak from the stain inside to the roof above it, then repair that path. If a local fix will hold, that is what we bid.
Roof replacement in San Jose
Many Bay Area asphalt shingle replacements fall between about $9,000 and $28,000, depending on size, pitch, access, and material. Tile and metal cost more. We measure your roof and price the job in writing. Most cities, including San Jose, require a permit for a full replacement, and we pull it when the city asks.
What San Jose roofs deal with
- California energy rules can apply to a full replacement. We spec a system that can pass the city inspection.
- Tile and asphalt shingle are both common. We do not force one material if the house was built for the other.
- Low-slope additions need real slope to the drains, not another coat over standing water.
San Jose roofing questions
Do I need a permit for a new roof in San Jose?+
The city often requires a permit for a full replacement. Small repairs often do not. We pull the permit when the job needs it and build to the inspection.
How much does a roof replacement cost in San Jose?+
Typical Bay Area asphalt shingle replacements often fall between $9,000 and $28,000. Size, pitch, access, and material change the number. Your written estimate is based on a measurement of your roof.
Why is my tile roof leaking if the tiles look fine?+
Tile sheds water. The real waterproofing is the underlayment underneath. After many years that layer can crack, and water that runs under intact tiles shows up in the ceiling.
