Types of Roofing Materials We Offer
Choosing the right roofing material affects durability, cost, and aesthetic appeal. We focus on common options that balance performance with value for most homes in Santa Ana.
Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt shingles are the most popular choice for residential roofs. They are cost-effective and offer good weather resistance, especially against heat and rain.
We install shingles that come in various colors and styles to match different home designs. Asphalt can last 15 to 30 years, depending on quality and maintenance.
These shingles are relatively easy to replace or repair, making them practical for long-term upkeep. Their lightweight nature also means they do not add excessive stress to your roof structure.
Tile Roofing Options
Tile roofs provide strong durability and a distinct architectural look, often seen in Mediterranean and Spanish-style homes.
Made from clay or concrete, tiles resist fire, insects, and extreme weather. They generally last 50 years or more when properly maintained.
Tiles do require a sturdier roof frame because of their weight. They also offer good insulation, helping keep your home cooler in summer.
Our expertise includes careful installation to ensure tile longevity and resistance to cracking.
Metal Roofing Systems
Metal roofs have grown in popularity for their longevity and energy efficiency. We use materials like steel, aluminum, and copper.
These systems can last 40 to 70 years and withstand harsh weather, including strong winds and fire. They reflect heat well, lowering cooling costs.
Metal roofing is lightweight but very durable, requiring less maintenance than other materials. We also provide options with coatings to prevent rust and improve aesthetics.
Installation precision is vital to avoid leaks and ensure the integrity of the system over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to replace a residential roof in Santa Ana?
Residential roof replacement costs in Santa Ana typically range from $8,000 to $25,000, depending on your home's size, roofing material choice, and roof complexity. Asphalt shingle roofs are the most affordable option, while tile and metal roofing cost more but offer better longevity. The average Santa Ana home with asphalt shingles costs between $12,000-$18,000 to replace. Factors like roof pitch, accessibility, and permit requirements can affect the final price. Getting multiple quotes from licensed contractors will give you the most accurate estimate for your specific home.
How long does a residential roof replacement take?
Most residential roof replacements in Santa Ana take 1-3 days to complete, weather permitting. Single-story homes with simple roof lines can often be finished in one day, while two-story homes or complex rooflines may require 2-3 days. Tile roofing installations typically take longer than asphalt shingles due to the material weight and installation process. Weather delays, permit inspections, and material delivery can extend the timeline. Your contractor should provide a clear schedule and keep you informed of any changes during the project.
What questions should I ask a roofing contractor?
Ask for their California contractor's license number and verify it's current and in good standing. Request proof of liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage. Inquire about their experience with your specific roofing material and ask for local references from recent projects. Get details about warranties on both materials and workmanship, and ask how long they've been serving the Santa Ana area. Make sure they'll handle all permits and inspections, and request a detailed written estimate that breaks down materials, labor, and cleanup costs.
What are the best roofing materials for Santa Ana's hot climate?
Clay or concrete tiles are excellent choices for Santa Ana's hot, dry climate because they reflect heat and provide natural insulation, helping reduce cooling costs. Metal roofing with reflective coatings also performs well in high temperatures and offers excellent durability against UV exposure. Cool-colored asphalt shingles with reflective granules are a budget-friendly option that still provides good heat resistance. All these materials handle Santa Ana's intense sun and occasional high winds better than standard dark-colored roofing. Consider materials that meet California's Title 24 energy efficiency requirements for potential rebates and long-term savings.
