Roofing Contractors: Costs, Lifespan and Alternatives

Flashing at every penetration is replaced rather than reused on a Campo roof. Work on a Campo roof starts with ground protection and a plan for where the debris goes.

Ask what happens on your Campo job if the deck is worse than expected, and get the answer beforehand. Two warranties apply on Campo work — the manufacturer's on material and the installer's on workmanship.

We look at the deck from inside the Campo attic as well as walking the roof; half the evidence is underneath. Every Campo inspection ends with photographs and a written report rather than a verbal summary and a price.

Tile on a Campo property outlives its underlayment by decades, and the underlayment is the part doing the waterproofing. Composition shingle is the most common covering in Campo and typically runs fifteen to twenty-five years here.

Daylight through the deck in a Campo attic is a structural problem, not a covering problem. Granules in the Campo gutters are the earliest honest warning that a shingle roof is past halfway.

Insurance work in Campo turns on documentation taken before anything is touched or tarped. Policies on Campo properties pay for sudden damage and not for age, so the report has to separate the two.

Active leaks in Campo get same-day or next-day attention; planned work is scheduled around the weather. Emergency work in Campo costs more than planned work, for the obvious reason that nobody chose the timing.

Cheap Campo quotes usually leave out the flashing, which is exactly where the next leak starts. The line that moves on a Campo quote is deck repair, so it belongs in writing at a rate per sheet rather than as an allowance.
