Chino, CA
Roof repair quotes from Chino contractors
The expensive part of a roof leak is almost never the roof. It is the insulation, the drywall and the framing that got wet on the way to the ceiling stain.

Before you let anybody on the roof
The things worth pinning down on a repair job. A contractor who has not raised them has not looked properly.
- What it would cost to replace instead, so you can compare like for like
- What the repair does to any remaining manufacturer warranty
- Where the water is actually getting in, not just where it is showing up
- Whether matching material is still available in your colour
- Whether the surrounding material has enough life left to be worth tying into
Leaks rarely start where the stain is. Water travels along the underside of the deck and down a rafter before it drops, which is why a repair that goes straight to the discoloured patch usually fails twice.
A good repair visit starts in the attic, not on the roof. Daylight through the deck, wet insulation, and rust tracks down a nail shank all say more than a walk on the shingles.
Repairs on a roof with five years left are money well spent. Repairs on a roof with two are usually a deposit on the replacement you are about to buy anyway.
Locally
The second problem is shaded slopes that never really dry out. Nothing dramatic happens. A slope stays damp most mornings for thirty years, and eventually that is enough.
About repair here
Is moss on the roof a problem?
It matters more than it looks. The damage is not the moss, it is the permanent damp underneath it. Kill it and brush it off gently; never pressure wash asphalt.
What does a new roof cost in Chino?
For a typical Chino home of about 25 squares, an architectural asphalt re-roof usually lands between $12,500 and $29,500. Tile, slate and standing-seam metal run well above that. The number moves on how many old layers come off, how much decking is soft underneath, and how easily a truck can get to the house.
Is this really free?
Yes. You pay nothing, now or later. Roofing contractors pay us for the introduction, which is why the service costs you nothing and why we are upfront that it is how we make money.
Do you cover the whole San Bernardino County area?
Yes. The contractors we match on cover Chino and the surrounding towns, so if you are just outside the city limits it still works.
