Gutters that move water properly, skylights that don't seep, and a documented annual inspection so a small failure on a Portola Valley roof never becomes a structural repair.
The small work is what keeps a Portola Valley roof out of expensive trouble. Gutters that actually move water away from the foundation, skylights that don't seep at the curb, and a documented annual inspection that catches a lifted shingle or a tired boot before it becomes a leak. We clear and repair gutters, reseal and reflash skylights, and hand you a written, photographed inspection report you can actually use.
On Portola Valley roofs the conditions that matter most — marine influence, seasonal rainfall, UV exposure — are what we plan the work around, not an afterthought.
Every roof in Portola Valley answers to the same forces: a bay-moderated climate, and an aging housing stock dominated by diverse residential homes. The specific local stressors that decide how long a roof actually lasts here: marine influence, seasonal rainfall, UV exposure. We've spent enough time on Portola Valley roofs to know which failure modes show up first, and we plan gutters, skylights & roof inspections around them rather than discovering them halfway through the job.
Once a year, plus after any major Portola Valley storm. An annual inspection is the cheapest thing you can do to keep a roof on the long end of its lifespan — most of what we find at that stage is a minor fix instead of a five-figure one.
Both. Most Portola Valley skylight leaks aren't the glass — they're the curb flashing and seal around it, which is roofing work. We reseal and reflash; if the unit itself is failed we'll tell you.
Often, yes. Re-pitching, resealing joints, and rehanging a sagging section solves most Portola Valley gutter problems. We replace only when the metal itself is shot.
