Gutter repair and clearing, skylight resealing, and pre-purchase or annual inspections — the small jobs that keep a South San Francisco roof out of trouble.
The small work is what keeps a South San Francisco 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 South San Francisco roofs the conditions that matter most — Strong bay winds are a constant factor in South SF. Industrial pollution from the past has left residues on older roofing materials. Fog density near the bay is high. — are what we plan the work around, not an afterthought.
Every roof in South San Francisco answers to the same forces: a Coastal/industrial, windier than SF, heavy fog, 20" annual rainfall, and an aging housing stock dominated by Post-war industrial-adjacent housing, mixed residential/commercial. The specific local stressors that decide how long a roof actually lasts here: Strong bay winds are a constant factor in South SF. Industrial pollution from the past has left residues on older roofing materials. Fog density near the bay is high. We've spent enough time on South San Francisco 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 South San Francisco 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 South San Francisco 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 South San Francisco gutter problems. We replace only when the metal itself is shot.
