Thank youPosted on Google Kara TaylorTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working with California Renewable Energy was a pleasure. This project had been a nightmare for the last two years, but when California Renewable Energy came in, along with Solar Doctors, things went fast, smoothly, and we couldn't be happier with our ground mount setup.Posted on Google Pat KaveskiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We found Nate Blanton on a Facebook ad. We contacted him and received a call from him. After a brief conversation, we set up a meeting to discuss replacing our messed up roof and installation of solar panels with battery back up. He arrived at our house on a Saturday due to my spouse working during the week. We spent several hours going over materials that would best suit our needs and a price we could afford. His dedication to his company and great customer service had us sold. We were in contract within a couple of days. There was a bit of confusion with the permit office which was no fault of Nate or the company he works for. Brent, their representative, spent hours at the permit office and kept us informed and worked through all of the kinks that the permit office threw at us. Nate kept in contact with us through everything assuring us everything would go smoothly. We had many questions and he would have the answers immediately. The big day came and our roof was installed. It is a vision of beauty. It's perfect and we're confident in the workmanship that we received. We have recommended Nate to our family, friends and neighbors. The work passed inspection the first time, which is impressive for our county. We are happy that we found this company and to have met Nate.Posted on Google Laura SloppyeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Our Roof Installation Services
We handle full roof replacements for residential properties and light commercial buildings throughout California. Whether you need a standard asphalt shingle roof or a solar-ready system designed for future panels, we deliver quality craftsmanship and long-term performance on every project.
- Full Roof Replacement
We perform complete tear-offs and install new roofing systems using high-performance materials from trusted manufacturers like Owens Corning. Every roof includes proper underlayment, ventilation, flashing, and accessories, plus manufacturer and workmanship warranties that protect your investment for decades.
- Solar-Ready Roofing
If you're planning to add solar panels now or in the future, we design your roof layout to accommodate panel placement, conduit runs, and mounting hardware. That forethought makes solar installation cleaner, faster, and less likely to compromise your roof's integrity.
- Residential & Light Commercial
We specialize in single-family homes but also serve townhomes, condos, and small commercial properties. Whether you need a straightforward shingle replacement or a more complex roof with multiple planes and penetrations, our crews have the roofing experience to handle it.
- Protect Your Home from the Elements
A quality roof is your first line of defense against leaks, water damage, and wind uplift. We use durable roofing materials and proper installation techniques to ensure your home stays dry and protected year-round, no matter what California weather throws at it.
- Boost Curb Appeal & Home Value
A new roof transforms how your home looks from the street and signals to buyers that the property has been well maintained. Fresh shingles in updated colors make your home stand out and can increase resale value significantly when it's time to sell.
- Improve Comfort & Efficiency
Modern energy-efficient roofing materials reflect heat instead of absorbing it, which keeps your attic and living spaces cooler. That means your air conditioner doesn't work as hard, you use less energy, and you stay more comfortable during California's hot summers.
Roofing Materials & Options
We offer a range of roofing materials, styles, and colors to match your home's architecture and your budget. From durable asphalt shingles to cool roof coatings and premium underlayment, every component is chosen for performance, longevity, and energy efficiency.
High-Performance Shingle Roofs
We install architectural shingles that deliver excellent wind resistance, impact protection, and curb appeal. These shingles come with strong manufacturer warranties, often covering 30 years or more, and they’re available in dozens of colors to complement any home style.
Cool Roof & Energy-Efficient Options
Reflective shingles and cool roof coatings help reduce heat absorption, which lowers attic temperatures and cuts cooling costs. In California’s climate, these energy-efficient roofing products can make a noticeable difference in comfort and energy savings year after year.
Underlayment, Ventilation & Accessories
We upgrade your underlayment to ice and water shield in critical areas, install proper ridge and soffit vents for airflow, and replace flashing around chimneys, skylights, and vents. Those details ensure your roofing system works as a complete, integrated assembly.
Brands we work with




















Roofs Designed for Solar Integration
We coordinate closely with solar installations to ensure your roof and solar panels work together seamlessly. Whether you're adding solar now or planning for it later, we design the roof layout, penetrations, and flashing to support clean panel mounting without compromising waterproofing.
Plan Ahead for Solar
If you're thinking about solar but not ready to install yet, we can design your roof replacement with future solar in mind. That means positioning shingles, vents, and conduit paths to make the eventual solar project easier, faster, and less invasive.
Bundled Roof + Solar Projects
Combining your roof replacement with a new solar system saves time, reduces costs, and ensures everything is coordinated from the start. We handle permits, inspections, and installations for both projects as a single, streamlined process so you don't manage multiple contractors.
Our Roof Installation Process
We manage every step, from initial inspection to final cleanup, so you know exactly what’s happening and when. Our process is designed to be efficient, transparent, and minimally disruptive to your daily routine while delivering a roof that meets California building codes and manufacturer specifications.
- 1. Roof Inspection & Consultation
We start with a thorough roof inspection to assess the condition of your existing shingles, underlayment, decking, and ventilation. Then we discuss your goals, review material options, and answer any questions about warranties, solar integration, or energy efficiency.
- 2. Detailed Proposal & Timeline
You’ll receive a clear proposal that outlines the scope of work, roofing materials, labor, permit fees, and project timeline. We explain everything upfront so there are no surprises, and you’ll know exactly what to expect before work begins.
- 3. Tear-Off & Preparation
Our crews remove the old roofing materials down to the decking, inspect the wood for damage or rot, and make any necessary repairs. We protect your landscaping, gutters, and property throughout the process, and we haul away all debris as we go.
- 4. Professional Roof Installation
Licensed roofing contractors install your new roof according to manufacturer specs and California building codes. We follow strict safety protocols, use proven installation techniques, and ensure proper alignment, fastening, and sealing on every shingle and flashing piece.
- 5. Final Inspection & Clean-Up
After installation, we conduct a thorough inspection and walk you through the completed project. Then we perform a comprehensive cleanup, including magnetic sweeps for nails, to leave your property cleaner than we found it. Your new roof is ready to protect your home for decades.
Warranties, Licensing & Quality Standards
Our roofing teams are fully licensed and insured, and we back every installation with comprehensive warranties on both materials and workmanship. All projects are completed to California building codes and inspected by local jurisdictions to ensure safety, durability, and compliance.
Manufacturer & Workmanship Warranties
Roofing materials typically come with 25- to 50-year manufacturer warranties covering defects. We add our own workmanship warranty that protects the quality of our installation, so you’re covered if any issues arise from how the roof was built.
Licensed & Insured Roofing Professionals
We meet all California licensing requirements for roofing contractors and carry full liability and workers’ compensation insurance. That protects you from risk and ensures you’re working with qualified professionals who follow industry best practices.
Inspections & Building Code Compliance
Every roof replacement is completed to local building codes and inspected by your city or county building department. We coordinate those inspections and handle any required corrections to ensure your project passes and your permits close properly.
Financing & Project Planning
We offer flexible financing options that make roof replacement affordable, whether you’re paying upfront or spreading the cost over time. We can also help coordinate roofing projects with insurance claims, solar installations, or other home improvements for a smooth, integrated experience.
- Flexible Payment Options
We work with financing partners to offer low-interest loans and payment plans that fit different budgets. Many homeowners find that financing options make it easier to invest in a quality roof now rather than waiting and risking storm damage or leaks.
- Coordinating with Insurance or Other Work
If you’re filing an insurance claim for storm damage, we can work directly with your adjuster to document the damage and ensure your claim covers the necessary repairs. We can also coordinate roof replacement with solar, HVAC upgrades, or other home improvements to streamline the entire project.
- FAQS
Roof Installation FAQs
Homeowners ask us a lot of questions about how long roofs last, how long installation takes, and whether they should replace their roof before going solar. Here are straightforward answers to the most common ones.
How Long Will My New Roof Last?
High-quality asphalt shingle roofs typically last 25 to 30 years, and some premium products offer 50-year durability. Roof lifespan depends on material quality, installation craftsmanship, ventilation, and maintenance. Regular roof inspections and preventative maintenance can extend the life of your system.
How Long Does a Roof Replacement Take?
Most residential roof replacements are completed in one to three days, depending on roof size, complexity, and weather. We'll give you an exact timeline in your proposal so you can plan accordingly and know when to expect crews on-site.
Should I Replace My Roof Before Going Solar?
If your roof is more than 15 years old or showing signs of wear, it's usually smart to replace it before installing solar panels. That way, you avoid the cost and hassle of removing and reinstalling solar later, and your panels sit on a roof that will last as long as the solar system does.
