As a family-owned company based in Morgan Hill since 1990, Winter Roofing, Inc. has helped thousands of homeowners and businesses throughout the South Bay protect their property with dependable roof replacements. Our Diamond Certified crews replace failing roofs on single-family homes, townhouses, commercial buildings and industrial facilities, using high-quality materials designed for Northern California’s climate.
When Is It Time to Replace Your Roof?
Most asphalt shingle roofs last around 20–25 years with proper maintenance, while tile roofs can perform for 25–50 years or more and metal systems can last 40–70 years. If your roof is nearing the end of its expected service life or showing signs of failure, it may be time for a full replacement. Watch for:
- Shingles that are curling, cracked or missing, especially on sun‑facing slopes.
- Granules in your gutters or around downspouts, indicating that shingles are breaking down.
- Leaks or water stains on ceilings and walls.
- Sagging roof decks or soft spots when walking on the roof.
- Moss, mold or mildew growth that won’t go away.
- Multiple roof layers that prevent proper ventilation and add weight.
If you’re not sure whether a repair or full replacement is needed, our experienced inspectors provide honest assessments and detailed recommendations.
Materials and Options
We install every major residential and commercial roofing system to match your budget, architectural style and energy goals:
- Asphalt/Composition Shingles – Affordable and versatile, asphalt shingles come in a wide range of colors and profiles. Quality composition roofs typically last about 20 years in California’s climate.
- Tile Roofs (Concrete & Clay) – Tile roofs offer classic curb appeal and outstanding durability. With routine inspections and occasional tile replacement, a tile roof can perform for 25–50 years or longer.
- Metal Roofing – Standing seam metal roofs provide exceptional longevity, fire resistance and energy efficiency. Metal can last 40–70 years and is ideal for wildfire‑prone areas and modern designs.
- Flat Roofing (TPO/PVC/BUR) – For low‑slope structures, we install single‑ply membranes like TPO and PVC, built‑up roofing and coatings. TPO and PVC membranes are waterproof, reflect heat and offer warranties up to 30 years.
- Cool Roofs/Title 24 Compliant Systems – California’s Title 24 energy code requires cool roofing on certain re‑roof projects. We offer reflective shingles, tiles and single‑ply membranes that reduce attic temperatures and meet or exceed Title 24 standards.
Our team can also coordinate related services such as gutter replacement, skylight installation, attic ventilation upgrades and solar panel removal and re‑installation to protect your investment.
Our Roof Replacement Process
- Inspection and Consultation – We start by inspecting your current roof, attic and structural framing to determine the extent of damage and identify any underlying issues. You’ll receive a free, written estimate detailing options, materials and timelines.
- Material Selection – We help you choose the right roofing system for your home’s architecture, budget and climate. You can view product samples, colors and energy‑efficient options.
- Permits and Planning – As a licensed C‑39 contractor, Winter Roofing obtains all required permits and ensures your project meets city and county codes. For example, Morgan Hill requires a reroof permit, proof of a C‑39 license and final inspections including roof sheathing compliance and smoke‑detector certifications.
- Removal and Preparation – Our crew protects your landscaping and property, then removes the existing roofing layers and inspects decking. Damaged sheathing is replaced and the deck is properly prepared with underlayment and waterproofing.
- Installation – Skilled installers place shingles, tiles, metal panels or membrane sheets with precision and attention to detail. We integrate flashings, vents and penetrations to prevent leaks.
- Cleanup and Inspection – We clean up all debris, haul away old materials and perform a final inspection to ensure your new roof meets our high standards.
- Warranty & Ongoing Support – Your new roof is backed by manufacturer warranties and our workmanship guarantee. We also offer maintenance plans to extend the life of your investment.
Roof Replacement Cost & Financing
Roof replacement costs depend on factors like roof size, pitch, number of layers to remove, material choice and complexity of the structure. In Morgan Hill, the typical cost to replace a shingle roof ranges from about $7,311 to $8,322 for a 1,282‑square‑foot roof, or roughly $6–$7 per square foot. The cost per “square” (100 square feet) can vary between $175 and $550 depending on the contractor, materials and warranty level. Tile, metal and single‑ply membranes have higher upfront costs but offer longer lifespans and energy savings.
Winter Roofing provides competitive pricing, transparent quotes and multiple payment options. We also offer financing plans to make your new roof more affordable. Be sure to ask about tax credits and rebates for cool roofs and solar‑ready systems.
