We needed the roof of our San Carlos home re-done (first time I've had a roof re-done). I contacted 3 different roofing contractors for quotes.
Signature was, by far, the most thorough and professional of the group. They did an outstanding job thru the process which only re-affirmed that it was a good decision.
William Cotter was my interface and he was super responsive and always delivered on the commitments he made (for himself and Signature). I had a question regarding a bathroom vent and the crew popped the panel and took photos / video so I could see how it looked which I greatly

These guys were the ultimate professionals from start to finish. I had my roof replaced by them in 2019, and figured I'd wait a while prior to writing a review just in case something went wrong -- and nothing has. :) From the detailed quote process (not just all the information, including projects they'd done in my neighborhood, but also number & placement of vents), to the scheduling & installation, and follow-up, everything was perfect. They also helped coordinate my solar removal -- and the one & only thing that might have been better would have been if they could have

A little expensive compared to the competition, but incredibly thorough, professional, and great communicators. We needed our shingle roof + gutters replaced after 25+ years on a single-family home, and picked Signature Roofing after reviewing quotes from a couple of well-recommended suppliers. Their quote was higher, but they were much better able to explain options, discuss alternatives, and make recommendations that we believed. The work was done extremely well - including fixing up some old rotted woodwork, bolstering some sagged rafters, adding venting, and reusing our existing (slightly

From selecting the composite material to gutter type and downspout color, Signature Roofing made the decisions simple with practical answers to my many questions. Throughout the process, they kept me updated day by day about what progress had been made and what to expect the next day. The quality of the job was quickly tested and passed without question in our late October rain storm. I'm very happy that I selected this vendor based on a neighbor's recommendation, and I've already had the pleasure of recommending the firm to two different homeowners.

When was the last time you gave serious consideration to your roof? If you're like me, the answer is "way too long ago". But when shingles kept blowing off my aging roof and the gutter kept getting filled with asphalt granules, I knew it was time to replace the roof before my house ended up with a new indoor pool during the next storm. Of the three roofing companies that I contacted, Signature Roofing had the best communication by far. I do a lot of research before hiring contractors, so I was impressed when SR sent me several emails containing detailed information about shingle

Signature roofing did a great job replacing our roof. They stripped off our old roof for both the house and garage and had it replace in about 3 days. They also coordinated new gutters and a new skylight. Everything went per plan. They were very professional and friendly so easy to work with. We could not be happier and would recommend them to friends.
