About
The business in short: the Westminster roofs we work on, how a job gets scoped and priced in writing, and the kinds of work we say no to.
A Westminster roofing business that starts under the eave
Blakey Roofing works Westminster and Midway City: roof repair, leak tracing, emergency cover, storm repair, flat roofs and sagging roofs, on a housing stock that is mostly one-story ranch houses from the 1950s and 60s, with Little Saigon's later homes and townhomes beside them.
The site is built around what those roofs do with age. A low roof with long eaves sends all its water over the edge, so that is where the wood goes first and where every visit begins. Every quote is written, and every visit ends with what is rotten, what is sound, and what can wait.
- Roofs only: siding, windows, gutters and remodels go elsewhere
- Repair work, not replacement
- Westminster and Midway City only
- Nothing priced until the roof and its eaves have been seen
Four steps, no surprises
The eave wood is checked first, and a written quote comes before any work.
Tell us what you can see
The address, and what you are seeing: a stain, a drip, a fascia board that looks dark or crumbly, a roof line that dips at the edge.
The eaves, then the roof
Fascia, rafter tails and eave decking first, from the ground, the ladder and the attic. Then the slopes, the flashings and any flat section.
A written quote, wood on its own line
What is rotten, counted by the board or the sheet; what the roof itself needs; and anything that can wait, written down as such.
The repair, then a look together
Soft wood cut back until the saw meets firm grain, new boards primed before they go up, shingles relaid over them.
How to choose a roofer in Westminster, CA for a repair
Five things you can ask any roofer, and the answers we give to each.
They look under the eave
Fascia, rafter tails and eave decking before shingles. On a low ranch roof, a visit that never looks up from the ground is guessing.
They see it before they name a figure
A number given over the phone for a roof nobody has looked at is a guess. The cause comes first, then the price.
They price wood on its own line
Rotten boards counted, by the board or the sheet, so you can see what the wood costs and what the roof work costs.
They put the license on paper
A CSLB C-39 license number on the written quote, the scope and the price in plain language, and the building office named for your address.
