Our Services
We provide complete roofing solutions for Placerville homes and businesses. Whatever challenge your roof faces, we have the experience to handle it.
Historic Downtown and Older Homes
Placerville is known as Hangtown for its Gold Rush history, and that heritage shows in the beautiful historic buildings throughout downtown and the surrounding neighborhoods. Many homes date back to the late 1800s and early 1900s, featuring steep roof pitches, complex architectural details, and materials that require specialized knowledge to work with properly.
We have worked on dozens of historic properties in Placerville and understand the unique challenges they present. Original wood framing may need reinforcement before installing new roofing. Matching existing architectural styles requires careful material selection. Some properties fall under historic preservation guidelines that dictate what changes are allowed. We navigate all these requirements while ensuring your roof provides reliable protection.
Whether your historic home needs careful repairs to maintain its character or a complete replacement that respects the original design, we bring the right expertise to every project. We also work on newer properties throughout Placerville with the same attention to quality and detail.
Snow Loads and Winter Weather Challenges
Placerville sits at around 1,860 feet elevation, which means you get real winter weather including occasional snow. While not as heavy as higher mountain areas, snow accumulation still creates load stress on roof structures and can reveal weak spots in older roofs. Ice damming along eaves can also cause water to back up under shingles when snow melts and refreezes.
We design and install roofs that handle these conditions without problems. Proper attic ventilation prevents ice dams by keeping the roof deck cold so snow melts evenly. Adequate structural support handles snow loads safely. Enhanced underlayment along eaves provides extra protection against water infiltration if ice dams do form despite prevention measures.
Properties at higher elevations on the east side of Placerville near the Apple Hill area face more intense conditions and need extra attention to these details. Our roof installation services account for local weather patterns and ensure your roof performs reliably year round.
Main Street Businesses Need Reliable Commercial Roofing
The commercial buildings along Main Street and throughout downtown Placerville serve as the heart of the community. From retail shops to restaurants, professional offices to local services, these businesses depend on roofs that protect their operations and inventory without interruption. Many of these buildings feature mixed use designs with commercial space below and residential units above, creating complex roofing requirements.
We have completed commercial roofing projects throughout Placerville and understand the unique needs of business properties. Older commercial buildings may have multiple roof levels, skylights, and parapet walls that require careful flashing and waterproofing. Some properties still have original built up tar and gravel roofs that need replacement with modern materials. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your business operations.
Our commercial roofing services include emergency repairs when unexpected damage threatens your business, regular maintenance to extend roof life, and complete replacement when needed. We schedule work around your business hours and coordinate with multiple tenants when necessary.
Our Process
Free Inspection and Estimate
We start with a thorough inspection of your roof, checking every detail from the ridge cap down to the gutters. You will get a detailed written estimate that explains exactly what work needs to be done and why. We take photos of any damage we find and walk you through everything so you understand the full scope of your project. There is no pressure and no obligation. We just give you the facts about your roof condition and what it will cost to fix it right.
Heavy Rainfall Requires Proper Water Management
Placerville receives more rainfall than communities at lower elevations to the west. The winter months can bring sustained heavy rain that tests every part of your roofing system. Gutters must handle high water volumes without overflowing. Downspouts need to direct water far enough away from foundations to prevent basement flooding and foundation damage.
We see many older homes in Placerville with undersized gutters that were adequate when first installed but cannot handle peak rainfall from modern storm intensity. Upgrading to larger gutters and adding strategic downspouts solves overflow problems and protects your foundation investment. Gutter guards keep pine needles and oak leaves out while allowing water to flow freely even during the heaviest downpours.
Our gutter installation and repair services ensure your property sheds water properly in all weather conditions. We size gutters correctly for your roof area and local rainfall patterns, not just install whatever is cheapest.
