Three recent projects, three very different San Jose neighborhoods. On Homewood Drive in central San Jose, a worn shingle roof came off and a new architectural shingle system went on. Downtown, a steep roof on North 10th Street got the same treatment. And out in Berryessa, a flat-tile system on Cape Hatteras Way shows the other side of what we install.
Your neighborhood is probably on this list already. Book a free inspection or see more on our projects page.
