Think Before You Tackle

The moment an Orange County Roofing company begins servicing a roof, the team invariably knows whether or not someone else has been there first. And that someone usually is a homeowner intent on solving a problem without the assistance of an Orange County roofing contractor.  Not necessarily a bad move – provided said do-it-yourselfer has the requisite skill, knowledge, and time to do a creditable job. If this sounds like an accurate description of you, then, depending on the complexity of your roofing needs, you might be qualified for a DIY job – like cleaning leaves out of a rain gutter.  Anything more complex than that really does require the skills of a commercial roofing contractor.

Think about the investment you’ve made in your beautiful Orange County home, say in San Juan Capistrano. Would you really want to risk jeopardizing the investment by tearing into the roof, relying on your wits alone? Doesn’t it make more sense to call in a San Juan Capistrano roofer to tackle the assignment? In most cases, the answer will be a resounding ‘yes’.   
 
It’s not unusual for an Orange County roofing company to be summonsed for a roof rescue. These typically occur when homeowners have started something they couldn’t finish – at least, couldn't finish without risking their safety or the future performance of their roof tiles. The dollars these homeowners had hoped to save now will spent in increasing amounts, mainly to cover any damage caused by their efforts, as well as service costs. In the long run, DIY roofing services likely will set you back more than originally anticipated.

So think before you tackle a roofing assignment. Because, in all likelihood, you’ll pay tomorrow for whatever mistakes you make today.

If you have any questions about doing your own roof servicing, be sure to reach out to Luke Roofing. A long-established Orange County Roofing company, we provide prompt, reliable expertise for every need and situation. Whether you need roofing services in Brea or anywhere else in OC, you definitely can count on Luke Roofing.

A Cleaner Roof

Every homeowner on the planet knows what heavy rains can do to a roof, particularly if those fine asphalt shingles develop a leak or two. But other meteorological phenomena also can make an impact on the average rooftop. Consider, for instance, the issue of humidity. Along with making things mighty uncomfortable for a variety of life forms, humidity can promote the growth of algae on once-pristine shingles. Don’t worry. Algae likely won’t damage your roof. But it could damage property values. After all, prominent green-blue stains seldom are aesthetically-pleasing to onlookers. The good news is, these blights on your rooftop can be removed fairly easily by an Orange County roofing company. Or, if you dare, by yourself or a friend. The main point is, the problem is easily dealt with.

Whether you opt to go with an Orange County roofing contractor or your own self, the person performing the algae purge will require several cleansing agents. Various stain-removing products are available to homeowners, residential roofing contractors, and commercial roofing contractors. Also highly effective is a homemade mixture of ordinary bleach, trisodium phosphate (TSP), and water. Do-it-yourselfers take note: you’ll need a pump sprayer, goggles, gloves, and several other items in order to pull this off. And be sure not to overdo. Repeated barrages of pressurized spray can wear away the protective elements layering shingles. So perform this operation sparingly.  

Of course, an Orange County roofing company can eliminate the time-consuming cleansing process altogether. Currently available are algae-resistant shingles, which utilize copper granules to prevent this unwanted growth.

If you have questions about removing algae from your roof, be sure to reach out to Luke Roofing. A long-established Orange County roofer in Brea and surrounding cities, we provide prompt, reliable expertise for every residential roofing and commercial roofing need. No matter where you live in OC, you can count on Luke Roofing for the most efficient, reliable roofing solutions.

Choose Roofing Materials Wisely

The Pros and Cons of Orange County Roofing Materials

Until you build a custom home or re-roof your existing home, you might not even think about all the types of roofing materials that are available today. But take a cross-country road trip through America, and you’ll see many different types of roofing materials - metal, asphalt shingles, clay, cedar shake shingles, and more.

Orange County homes can use any of these types of roofs, but before you choose your ideal roofing material, you need to know the pros and cons of all of your options. Here are the pros and cons of the most common Orange County roofing materials:

Asphalt shingles: Because they’re easiest to install, about ¾ of American roofs are covered in asphalt shingles. They come in a variety of colors, and they’re less expensive than other types of roofing materials, costing between $50 and $150 per 100 square feet.

Recommended by Friend, Very Reasonable!

Luke Roofing was recommended to us by a friend. Came out to give us a quote on a leak and had it fixed the same day! Very reasonable, at less than half the price quoted to us by another company. One year warranty. We would use them again for sure!

Excellent roof and solar installation!

Luke's was fantastic before during and after my roof and solar was installed. I couldn't be happier since I love dealing with professionals.
Highly recommended!

I hired Luke Roofing to install a large solar system and a new roof for an addition to my home.  They were on time, clean, and quick.  I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

Really good crew.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality

Second job done by Luke Roofing for us...price was fine; timeline not important in our case, but they came when they said they would, and finished in two days. Really good crew, polite, considerate, and the work was quality. Cleanup was first class. One minor nick on our front gate on the way out, but easy agreement on how to handle it (accidents can happen to anybody). Really can't ask for more, and I would recommend them to anyone. Thanks guys.

Very Professional and Conscientious

During the week of rains here in So CA I had a leak in my roof. The leak was coming through a light fixture in the stairwell. I phoned Luke Roofing (as I had used them in the past) and within a day Jonathan stopped by to assess the damage. I was given an estimate within the given time period he said he would get back to me. I was told that they were 2 - 3 weeks out to do the job however I received a call within the week after the estimate indicating Lupe would be by the next day. Lupe is a polite man who spent about 2.5 hours working on the roof. When he was finished he informed me as to what caused the roof to leak and left for his next job. He was very professional and conscientious. I await the next rain storm to see if all was fixed - however there is a 2 year guarantee in the work done. The individuals employed by Luke Roofing are polite and professional. In the past Luke Roofing fixed my leaking roof in another part of the house and I did not have any leaks. I would do business with them anytime.

I was challenged with a very complicated roofing problems as it was made of metal, tile and installed wrong which caused many leaks. The roof was only 10 years old!!  It took me 3-4 months of interviewing contractors as I needed to get the right one. Can you believe that the only one to come up with a water test on top of the roof was Gary the owner! Such a simple thing but everyone else was taking my word where the leaks were. Don't take my word! I'm not a roofer!! Gary and his team went above and beyond. His fabricator was brilliant in the redesign as it had ridges, crickets and slopes down instead of puddling. Luke Roofing knows what there doing!!

Luke roofing did a complete roof replacement for us. The consultant, Jonathan, was very good to work with, explained what needed to be done, provided clear, transparent pricing and followed up promptly every step of the way. The work was done when promised, the quality of work was exemplary and we now have a roof that will probably last longer than we will. LOL! You might find roofers that our cheaper but you get what you pay for. There are lots of fly by night guys out there who do a cheap shoddy job and when you have problems they are long gone. Closed the business and opened a new one to avoid claims from past customers. Buyer beware. Luke Roofing is a company you can count on to do the job right at a fair price. If you ever need follow-up service they will be there when you need them.

The entire Luke Roofing Team is nothing short of amazing. Roofing done right with permits, inspections, quality guaranteed product, and certified master shinglers that are licensed, bonded and insured is not the least expensive price, however, had the previous owners of my home used Luke...instead of using a company who did everything wrong...used faulty products, never pulled permits and never had the stages of their work inspected, .I would have had a 50 year guarantee and a no worries roof when I purchased this home. You get what you pay for.

On top of all the above...their kindness, cleanliness, and professionalism was off the charts...Even my neighbors were blown away. They commented they had never seen such an organized, professional, hard working crew....and they did what they said in the time frame they quoted. Their clean up every day was outstanding. And, their final clean up was with this big magnet they took all over my property to suck up any hidden nails that their clean up may have missed.

Gary and Caleb are really good people and that seems to trickle down to all their employees. I found out that some have been with them for over 20 years.

I was pleased to find out they could also do my gutters and paint for the new eves and facia. Using them for that was also one less worry. They did an outstanding job.

I can't say enough about Luke Roofing. I highly recommend them....Great job guys and thank you for taking such good care of us and our home..... wish I could hire you and your team for all my future home improvements, too bad for me you only do roofs, solar, etc.

Fantastic Job!

We called Gary Luke out to fix a leak in our roof. They got to it within 2-3 days, did a fantastic job, and at a very competitive price! Have referred them multiple times & would most definitely use them again!  Top notch company!
