Well - 80 bucks for a quote - doesn't seem right - if you are too busy to take on new business then that may be why you are charging for a quote- there are many roofers out there that also have good reviews

I had an awful time with a leak on my roof in one spot last winter and none of the roofing companies could fix it and finally I found this company. I'm here to tell you they are so dedicated honest and trustworthy! It was a tough find and it took a few times to get it fixed but they were persistent and they fixed it with precision and perseverance.
Jose is just a great guy to work with too.
I cannot thank them enough for helping me get through this last tough winter with a spot leak from hell.
They did it with excellence!

I regret that ratings are limited to Five Stars, I would gladly rate Six Stars for this company!
Let me first advise you; I am a California registered architect (since 1973) and an AIA Emeritus member.
For the past 15 years, one of my specialties had been ""forensic investigation"" of building/construction failures.
I had spent quite some time on a serious leak in my own home and it confounded me to sleepless nights!
I finally swallowed my pride and contacted Jose at Roof Repair Craftsmen.

He arrived with his crew promptly as scheduled and commenced to tear back the tar and gravel membrane from the gutter flange. He showed me evidence of a poor seal along the entire 17' edge of the concealed copper gutter with free moisture still present under the lifted membrane. I agreed with his finding! His crew torch sealed the flange edge with his roofing membrane and I awaited the next storm with some reservations.
The next sizeable storm came and WOW, 90% of the leaks stopped; at that point, I was very impressed!
Because I wanted to be certain the small remaining leak was not from the concealed copper gutter built into the roof, I spent 5 days minutely inspecting the gutter for leaks before a ""call back"".
I called Jose back to address the remaining modest leak and he was not distressed at my ""call back"". (unusual for a contractor; believe me!).
He returned (with a cheerful greeting!) with his crew and applied more roofing compound and a membrane at another suspected leaking location. (to address expansion/contraction).

Jose is a very unusual contractor with a cheerful attitude which was uncommon in a ""call back"" situation. He is very competent and easy to talk to.
I wholeheartedly recommend Roof Repair Craftsmen to investigate and remedy leaks in your roof.
Easily 5 stars!

We made an appointment two weeks ago for Jose to give us a bid on garage roof replacement in Stinson Beach. We confirmed the appointment in the morning of the scheduled day. I drove out there to meet him from Berkeley, but he didn't show up. I waited an hour. No explanation. Very frustrating waste of time, and loss of work.

Update 8/14/18
It turned out Jose did go out. I was 9 minutes late due to major road repairs on panoramic highway. My phone carrier doesn't cover Stinson beach or I would have called. The house was supposed to be empty. In fact there were short term renters there who told Jose they knew nothing about our meeting. So he left right away.

Good experience with Jose. Professional from beginning to end. He was astute at identifying what was causing our leak, and he and his team fixed it the next day. Time will tell, but I am confident he has resolved our problem. It was not cheap, but at least I can feel like I received top notch work.

I'll start by giving Jose and his crew five stars. But we'll have to wait until the rains next winter to see if that rating sticks! Based on all the good reviews here I called Jose, and he promptly showed up, inspected my roof, gave me a price, and agreed to a guarantee. A few days later he and his crew showed up and worked hard for two days. He was easy to work with, on time, the crews wasted no time, and did a great job of containing their mess and cleaning up. I wish all my contractors were this responsive and easy to work with. Jose replaced some dry rotted facia, and gave my aging tar and gravel roof some first aid that will hopefully end two small leaks and keep it going for a few more years. The real test will be next winter but Jose promised he would show up again if there were problems. Given the difficulty of getting the attention of the big roofing companies these days, Jose provides a great alternative for smaller projects.

I reached out to Jose after discovering a small leak that was coming from my flat rooftop deck. I had reached out to a few other roofing companies and Jose ended up being the most responsive. He came out to access the damage a few days after I made the call and the leak was fixed within a week. He was super helpful when explaining what he thought might be the issue and even discovered a few other areas on my roof that had been done incorrectly in the past. I could not be more pleased with the job and the customer service I received.

I hope I never have to call Jose again :), but if I do, I know all of my roofing needs will be taken care of.

I waited a few years to write this review because that's how long it takes to know if a roofer did a good job.

Jose came and looked at our roof, which was a mess - we shared a roof with a neighbor and it was 1/2 replaced 18 years prior. There were issues with drains and posts which were causing leaks all over.

I got an estimate for a complete re-roof and one for a strategic patch and repair job. Being tight on funds, I took the latter. Jose brought some very experienced workers who re-constructed some parts of the roofing, patched others, and left the area clean. The price was more than fair, I got an estimate right away, and the work started and completed promptly.

So here we are a few years later and the roof is great - five stars.

Jose is also bright, personable, and a straight-shooter. My experience with other roofers over the years has been the opposite. Jose was great and when I need more roofing work he'll be my first and likely only call.

Jose is simply an incredibly nice guy and very professional which seems to be a rarity in the roofing business. We had water spots on our ceiling so we called and made an appointment. Jose was right on time, checked our attic and found that the leak was from a vent pipe and not the roof. He even videoed the leaking pipe. If we ever have a roof related problem we know who to call. The best in the business.

Jose was a pleasure to work with. He was always reliable about returning calls and being on time for appointments. He clearly explained why our tar and gravel roof was leaking and what work was necessary to repair it. The work was done and (knock wood) we've had no issues since.
