Guides worth reading first
The things worth knowing before the first contractor is standing in your driveway.
What is going on with the roof?
About a minute. Nothing is charged and nothing is booked.
Your request is in.
We are matching it now against roofing contractors working in Cerritos and the surrounding area.
- Today, usually within the hour. The first contractor calls or texts the number you gave us. ASAP requests go out first.
- Up to three of them, no more. We cap it at three so you can compare without your phone melting.
- They come and look. Estimates are given after somebody has been on the roof, not over the phone.
- You decide, or you do not. There is nothing to cancel and nothing to pay us.
If you do not hear anything today, check your voicemail and spam folder — contractors often call from a mobile number.

- Attic ventilation, and why roofers keep raising itThe cheapest thing you can do during a re-roof, and the one most likely to be skipped.
