Cal-Vintage Roofing

Steve K.

Great team, easy to get stuff scheduled. Came out and did our roof work, no surprise charges or weird upselling. They fixed my roof and I didn't even need to be home for it. Reasonably priced and friendly team.

I had a metal roof that needed some repair and a vent cut for new bathroom fans. I wanted this assurance as a poor job from cutting a metal roof (or any roof) can compromise the integrity of the roofing structure. Actually, not many roofing companies wanted to work with metal roofs. From asking around, Cal Vintage was the most highly regarded for their expertise and great service. I was glad I used them as they did a great job and extended the life of the roof by repairing a few damaged sections. They also provided me pointers on having a house with a metal roof. Very happy with their work and I would use them again.

I live in Gold River and was one of the first in my neighborhood to replace wood shingles some 15 years ago or so with stone coated steel. It is supposed to be a lifetime roof so sounded great and happy go lucky. I was surprised when I got water dripping from the ceiling. I had to look around to find the roofer who installed it, they were out of business, called a few roofing companies and told that they only dealt with tile roofs or some lame excuse about not being able to work on stone coated steel. Crazy I thought. Then I remembered seeing Cal-Vintage on Coloma Road as I pass by it every day and decided to call. While I was told that it could take a week to schedule a repair since it was raining and a lot of calls, had someone to my house the next day to take a look. Told me that the flashing that should have been placed was not and the caulking or whatever it was at the various vents were weathered and cracked...while one may be leaking, the others were sure to go soon. Was told that it would take maybe a week to get someone to repair due to the numerous calls, wasn't too worried since the weather was going to be fine, but within a few days, had a call that someone would be out to make the repair - plus the cost was very reasonable. It had rained hard a few times since the repair, not problems. Was told that with the new flashing and repair since it was done correctly, would last about 50 years. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff.

A few years back I had Cal Vintage come out and repair the front roof of my home. I had a window leak where the water was coming in between the brick facia and wall. The original estimate for the repair was around $2500 and was told that they basically had to replace the valleys and rebuild the area in the front. There were 4 gutters in the front of the home that were installed before the facia was put on so instead of them running up too the facia the builders just cut and put the facia around the gutters. This mean't the the gutters went into the wall. I asked if the leak could be coming from the gutters and was told no. Jim is an appraiser who did the original estimate and wen't up on the roof to access what needed to be done. This guy is where the problem began because his assessment was completely wrong and he never listened to me about the gutter. He knew better and was trying to sell me on some poly vinyl underlayment and explained how they would replace the valley's and redo the entire front of the home. I agreed with his ""expert"" prognosis so they scheduled the work, did the rebuild and the very first rain the windows were leaking like a sieve. I called them back and explained that I believed it was the gutters built into the wall that was the issue. They did a water test on the two lower gutters and confirmed what I told them. So at their expense they remove the two lower gutters, cut them and I had to hire someone to fix the hole that was left when the gutters were replaced. They then came back and re-installed the cut gutters. The next rain most of the problem was gone but there were still some slight leaking. I called them again and said it was still leaking and perhaps it was the gutters on top that had not been fixed was the problem. They said they would do the same thing to the top gutters as they did for the bottom and give me another warranty IF I pay an additional $650. I was stuck and I needed this fixed so I agreed and they came and did the work. I guess since it was still under warranty I could of taken them to court but opted to pay their fee for coming out a third time.

This happened over an exchange of 34 emails between Brent Irick and myself back in June 2015. Overall I wasn't displeased with the work, I felt they charged me $2500 for some work that probably didn't need to be done, and they didn't really honor the warranty or fix the original problem until I coughed up another $650, but the guys who did the work were great and Brent was nice enough. So a couple of weeks ago (Jan 2018) the back of my roof is in need of some repair. The valley has some issues and needs to be replaced. I call Cal Vintage to have them do the work (again, I was okay with what they did 2 1/2 years ago so I called them back). I never got a call back. Eleven days later I called again and spoke with Leslie (who is one of the owners) and she informed me that Cal Vintage didn't want to have anything to do with my roof because of what happened in 2015.

I don't feel I was a difficult customer and if anyone is really interested in seeing how negotiations wen't between me and Brent I would be very happy to share all 34 emails. You can see EXACTLY how this company responds when they don't fix anything and you've paid $2500. You can also see how they dismiss you as a customer when you are persistent and make them work for their money. In retrospect I should of been the one who dismissed them as a viable roofing repair company. Perhaps Leslie did me a favor and now I won't have to work with this group again and beg them to do the work right.

Amazing company! Very well priced and everyone who worked on my roof was super friendly. The job was completed before it was estimated to be finished.

Although the project date got pushed out due to the weather, I've been pleased with the professionalism and progress of the crew.

They arrived before scheduled on Wednesday and began the tear down of my old roof. Martin and Tony have been great to deal with and everything is picked up and cleaned before they leave for the day.

Highly recommend this company.

Wow. Great. They did everything promised, and on the timeline promised. We contracted for services beyond what they usually do... ( gutter covers 2500) which was less than the direct gutter contractor estimated, and they still came in under cost for other bids, while doing a better construction.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY.

I was receiving good service from cal vintage in the past.
Unfortunately, recently there has been a change in responsiveness and customer service. I have been trying for months now to get some repairs completed and have yet to receive a quote for those repairs or a reply to multiple requests. Moving on so we don't have more problems in the coming wet months.

Very disappointed after speaking to several neighbors who recommended this company. Estimator took couple weeks to give us quote for repair. I had to call him to ask when to expect it. I figured they were busy. But I called again about another part of our roof that needs work. He said he'd get back to me and it's been over a week. I won't be calling them again. Their business card has been tossed in the trash.

On Feb.23rd I met with Pete Mazzuca Jr at their showroom in Gold River. I was told it would be 8 to 10 weeks before my roof could be put on. Previously a gentleman had come to my home and with a drone measured my roof. I was quoted a price and sent in my deposit. The original date was set for the third week in May. That was moved to the 12th of June then to the 21st. I informed them back in Feb of my vacation dates and was told it would be done by Saturday as I was leaving on Monday. They promised me this 3 times and because I was concerned they moved it back to the 19th. On the 16th received a call moving it back to the 21st a Wednesday and once again told it would be done on Saturday. Many things were not done as they promised and they don't really work on Saturday, lied to about that. On Thursday afternoon Martin Barajas the field superintendent came to my door and informed me there would be an additional 2 to 4 hours of labor as there was a bit more dry rot than expected. Not only were they not done till Monday but the final bill was $2204 more than I was quoted and not 2 to 4 hours but 26 hours were added. I was shocked and very upset at the large extra amount. Not sure how there were that many extra as crew was only actually here about that amount of hours. I don't feel that they were ever honest wirh me and showed no integrity whatsoever. If you use them be prepared for your bill to be padded.
