Roofing in El Sobrante means a lot of hillside homes. Many houses along San Pablo Dam Road, Appian Way and the streets climbing toward Sobrante Ridge were built after World War II, and some still sit under their second or third roof. Steep driveways and narrow streets make access and debris removal part of every job.
El Sobrante is unincorporated Contra Costa County, so reroofing permits come from the county building department, not a city hall. Contra Costa County requires a permit for re-roof work before it starts. Oaks and eucalyptus near Wildcat Canyon and Kennedy Grove drop leaves and limbs that clog gutters and valleys in winter storms.
The roofer inspects the roof and attic, finds where water gets in and gives a written estimate before any work starts. Calls for storm damage are answered 24/7.
