Questions
Roofing questions in California
Does a California roofer need a license?
Yes. The state requires roofing contractors to hold a CSLB license, usually the C-39 Roofing classification. Before you agree to any work, look up the contractor's license at CSLB. Call Roofers Hotline to book your roof repair or replacement estimate, and ask for the written estimate before any work starts.
What roof materials are common in homes in the state?
Asphalt shingles are the most common, on about 47% of homes, according to the federal Residential Energy Consumption Survey. Clay tile covers about 12%, wood about 5% and metal about 3%. The material changes how a leak is found and repaired, so tell us what your roof is made of when you call.
Is my roof in the state old enough to need an inspection?
It may be. Census estimates for 2019 to 2023 show a median build year of 1976 statewide, and 57% of homes were built before 1980. Age alone does not mean failure, but an older roof deserves a check. Call to book a roof inspection and get a written estimate.
