Three questions, then the address. Up to three Huntington Park contractors who do this work.
Your request is in.
We are matching it now against roofing contractors working in Huntington Park and the surrounding area.
- Today, usually within the hour. The first contractor calls or texts the number you gave us. ASAP requests go out first.
- Up to three of them, no more. We cap it at three so you can compare without your phone melting.
- They come and look. Estimates are given after somebody has been on the roof, not over the phone.
- You decide, or you do not. There is nothing to cancel and nothing to pay us.
If you do not hear anything today, check your voicemail and spam folder — contractors often call from a mobile number.
Before you let anybody on the roof
The things worth pinning down on a gutters job. A contractor who has not raised them has not looked properly.
- Condition of the fascia behind the old gutter
- Number and position of downspouts
- Seamless or sectional, and what gauge of aluminium
- Where the water is discharged, and how far from the foundation
- Gutter size against the roof area draining into it
Size matters more than people think. Five-inch gutter on a large steep roof will overshoot in heavy rain no matter how clean it is.
Slope should be about a quarter inch per ten feet toward the outlet. Too little and it stands, too much and it looks wrong from the street.
Guards reduce cleaning; they do not eliminate it. Treat any product sold as maintenance-free with suspicion.
Locally
Close behind that: the marine layer keeping the north slope damp. Nothing dramatic happens. A slope stays damp most mornings for thirty years, and eventually that is enough.
About gutters here
What does a new roof cost in Huntington Park?
Most quotes here for a standard asphalt replacement come in around $12,500 to $25,500. That assumes one layer to remove and sound decking. Every quote you get should say in writing what happens if the decking is not sound.
How much deposit is normal?
A third at most, and never the full amount. Pay the balance when the job is finished and you have walked it. Some states cap the deposit by law.
What should I do to prepare?
Clear the driveway, protect attic storage from falling dust, and plan for two loud days. Agree in advance where the dumpster goes and who sweeps for nails.
What warranty should I expect?
Ask for both in writing: the material warranty from the manufacturer and the workmanship warranty from the contractor. The second one is the one that matters in year three, and it is only as good as the company behind it.
