Roof Replacement
Los Gatos Roofing specializes in complete roof replacement using premium materials like asphalt shingles, clay tile, and cedar shakes. Our factory-trained crews ensure precise installation with proper ventilation and underlayment. We handle permits, inspections, and debris removal, offering free estimates and manufacturer-backed warranties up to 25 years. Our process prioritizes energy efficiency and structural integrity while maintaining clean job sites throughout the project.
Gutter Installation
We provide custom seamless gutter systems fabricated on-site using high-quality aluminum or steel. Our installation includes proper sloping and downspout placement to prevent foundation damage and landscaping erosion. With five profile options and over 20 colors, we ensure aesthetic compatibility with your home. Our team also offers gutter guard installation and repair services for existing systems, maintaining optimal water drainage year-round.
Insulation Services
Our energy-efficient insulation solutions use Owens Corning's AttiCat blown-in fiberglass to achieve R-38 values recommended for California climates. The quick installation process (under 2 hours for 1,000 sq ft) improves energy bills by reducing heat loss. We provide free attic inspections to identify under-insulation issues and use non-settling materials that maintain performance over time, qualifying for federal tax credits and improving overall home comfort.
Standing Seam Metal
We install durable 24-gauge and 26-gauge standing seam metal roofs designed to withstand extreme weather conditions. These modern systems feature concealed fasteners for leak protection and come in multiple color options for aesthetic customization. The lightweight yet robust construction reduces long-term maintenance needs while providing Class A fire resistance. Our team ensures proper installation with integrated ventilation systems for optimal performance in South Bay climates.
Clay Tile Roofing
We offer authentic clay tile roofing solutions with natural color blends and integrated solar options. Our installations meet California's strict building codes while preserving architectural integrity. The durable tiles resist fire, rot, and insect damage with lifespans exceeding 50 years. We provide proper underlayment and flashing installation to prevent water infiltration, ensuring energy efficiency through natural thermal properties while maintaining the classic aesthetic appeal of traditional clay roofing systems.

Strong experience with Los Gatos Roofing across their team.
There's lots of demand before the next big Bay Area rain front, so we appreciated they made the time when others wouldn't. Cost was at or below other estimates. No fuss, no upselling, no drama. Office staff was quick, competent and clear. Folks arrived when they said they'd arrive, roof fixes were hands-off, and everybody we dealt with at the company was professional. Appreciate the team, would use again ( ... but hope we won't need to).

Report
When Dale told us that Los Gatos Roofing would replace the roof, skylights and guttering on our 3000 square foot ranch house in three days, we were skeptical; but his crew not only completed the task in the time, they did so to a high standard and at a competitive rate. Day 1:
Just before 8am, a crew of about 10 arrived to tear off the roof. Within a couple of hours, the old roof and guttering had been removed and taken away in three trucks that arrived with choreographed precision. As the last of the demolition crew was leaving, a truck carrying the plywood and underlay arrived; what was particularly

Last year I called Los Gatos Roofing to repair a leak in my clay tile roof. They took a look and said that there were some other cracked tiles around the roof that needed attention as well. They quoted me $800 to do the work. I agreed. When they arrived, two men were up on the roof for 20 minutes and left. I received the bill for $800. I had agreed to this, of course, but this didn't seem right, so I called to question it. I believe it was Randy who seemed indignant that I had questioned the bill (I told him that I realized that I had agreed to it, but had questions) He went on about

Good roof but watch the salesman like a hawk
They installed my roof and seemed to do a good job
Now I find if a scrimped on the gutters which I got is a package with the roof
My gutters are 4 inches the narrowest possible high profit margin I'm sure but not a good match for my ranch style house with large roof area
This last rain all the gutters overflowed despite having just clean them
Hope I don't end up with expensive foundation damage
The gutters are clearly too small and they installed one fewer gutter downspouts than before without advising me
Clearly watch the salesman like
