Gutters, Skylights & Roof Inspections on a San Rafael Roof
The small work is what keeps a San Rafael 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 San Rafael roofs the conditions that matter most — San Rafael receives significantly more rainfall than Bay Area averages — 30–40" per year. Atmospheric rivers can bring 5+ inches in 24 hours. Hillside properties need proper drainage design. — are what we plan the work around, not an afterthought.

What San Rafael Roofs Are Up Against
Every roof in San Rafael answers to the same forces: a Mediterranean, 35" annual rainfall, marine influence from the bay and coast, and an aging housing stock dominated by Spanish Colonial Revival, Mediterranean, hillside contemporaries, mixed commercial. The specific local stressors that decide how long a roof actually lasts here: San Rafael receives significantly more rainfall than Bay Area averages — 30–40" per year. Atmospheric rivers can bring 5+ inches in 24 hours. Hillside properties need proper drainage design. We've spent enough time on San Rafael 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.
Gutters, Skylights & Roof Inspections in San Rafael — FAQs
How often should I have my San Rafael roof inspected?
Once a year, plus after any major San Rafael 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.
Do you repair skylights, or just roofs?
Both. Most San Rafael 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.
Can you fix gutters without replacing them?
Often, yes. Re-pitching, resealing joints, and rehanging a sagging section solves most San Rafael gutter problems. We replace only when the metal itself is shot.
