Roofing Contractor Orange County

Truecraft Construction Roofing Services

Roof damage spreads fast in Orange County. One cracked tile after a windstorm can let water seep into your attic and create hidden mold within days. A missing shingle discovered during routine maintenance might seem minor until the next rain soaks your insulation. You need a roofing contractor who responds quickly, uses premium materials, and stands behind every installation with manufacturer-backed warranties.

Truecraft Construction a general contractor in Orange County serves homeowners with GAF-certified roofing solutions, CSLB licensing, and a BBB A rating. Our family has built roofs since 1991. We became one of ABC Supply’s fastest-growing contractors because we answer calls 24/7 and show up when emergencies strike.

Emergency Response for Orange County Roof Damage

Leaks don’t wait for business hours. During El Niño storms in Tustin, we’ve seen water pour through bedroom ceilings at 2 AM. Santa Ana winds in Mission Viejo lift clay tiles and expose underlayment to the elements. Coastal humidity in Huntington Beach accelerates wood rot when flashings fail.

Our emergency roofing services include:

Immediate Damage Assessment We arrive with moisture mapping technology to identify hidden water intrusion. Thermal imaging reveals wet insulation before visible stains appear on your ceiling. You’ll receive photo documentation and a detailed scope of damage within hours, not days.

Temporary Protection Storm damage requires fast tarping to prevent secondary water intrusion. We secure blue tarps with proper fasteners that won’t damage your roof deck. This buys time while insurance adjusters review claims and permits get processed.

Insurance Claim Support Our team documents every aspect of storm damage for insurance purposes. We work directly with adjusters, provide detailed estimates, and handle the paperwork that overwhelms most homeowners during stressful situations.

Call us immediately if you notice:

  • Water stains spreading across your ceiling
  • Dripping sounds in walls or attic spaces
  • Daylight visible through roof decking
  • Missing tiles or shingles after high winds
  • Sagging areas on your roofline
  • Granules from asphalt shingles clogging gutters

Your roof protects everything you own. Delayed repairs turn small leaks into structural problems that cost ten times more than early intervention. We respond to emergency calls across Tustin, Mission Viejo, Orange, Irvine, Costa Mesa, and surrounding Orange County communities.

Roofing Services for Orange County Homes

Our roofing company handles every aspect of roof care. You won’t juggle multiple contractors or worry about coordination gaps. We manage design, permitting, installation, and final inspection as one unified team.

Roof Replacement

Complete tear-offs and new roof installations require precision planning in Orange County. HOA architectural committees review color samples. Building inspectors verify Title 24 energy compliance. Our crews coordinate every detail so you never face project delays.

We install:

  • Clay and concrete tile systems that match Spanish Colonial and Mediterranean architecture throughout Orange County
  • Asphalt shingle roofs with GAF Timberline HDZ products backed by lifetime warranties
  • Cool roof solutions that reflect California sunlight and reduce cooling costs during hot summers
  • Metal roofing panels for modern homes and ADU structures requiring long-lasting, low-maintenance protection

Roof replacement typically takes 2-4 days depending on home size and material complexity. We protect landscaping with tarps, use magnetic rollers to collect stray nails, and leave your property cleaner than we found it. Our dumpster service removes all debris on the final day.

Roof Repair

Not every problem requires full replacement. We fix isolated damage and extend your roof’s lifespan through targeted repairs. Common Orange County roof repairs include:

  • Tile replacement after trees drop branches during storms
  • Valley flashing repair where two roof planes meet and water concentrates
  • Chimney flashing renewal to stop leaks around masonry penetrations
  • Skylight resealing when old gaskets crack and let moisture through
  • Shingle patching for wind-damaged sections on composition roofs
  • Gutter realignment to prevent water from backing up under eaves

Minor repairs cost a fraction of replacement while solving immediate leak problems. We assess damage honestly and never push unnecessary work. If patching makes sense, we’ll tell you. If deterioration has spread beyond repair zones, we’ll explain why replacement is the smarter investment.

Roof Inspection

Orange County building codes require roof inspections before property sales close. Insurance companies demand documentation after storm events. Smart homeowners schedule annual inspections to catch problems before leaks start.

Our inspection process includes:

  • Structural assessment of decking, rafters, and support systems
  • Material condition evaluation checking for cracked tiles, worn shingles, or rust on metal components
  • Flashing examination around chimneys, vents, skylights, and roof edges
  • Underlayment inspection where tiles lift or shingles curl back
  • Ventilation analysis to verify attic airflow meets California energy codes
  • Gutter and downspout review to ensure proper drainage away from your foundation

You receive a detailed report with photos, recommended repairs ranked by urgency, and cost estimates for any necessary work. Most inspections take 1-2 hours and include attic access to check for moisture or ventilation issues invisible from the roof surface.

Storm Damage Roof Repair

California weather patterns have intensified. El Niño years bring heavy winter rains that overwhelm gutters and test valley flashings. Summer heat waves expand and contract roofing materials, creating stress cracks. Santa Ana winds hit 60+ mph and rip tiles off exposed slopes.

Storm damage repair requires immediate action. Water intrusion doubles every 24 hours as insulation soaks up moisture and spreads to ceiling joists. We prioritize emergency calls and arrive within hours to assess damage and prevent secondary problems.

Our storm response includes:

  • Blue tarp installation to stop active leaks
  • Structural assessment for wind-damaged areas
  • Debris removal from roof surfaces
  • Insurance documentation with photo evidence
  • Emergency repairs to restore weatherproof protection
  • Full restoration plans once insurance approves claims

We’ve worked with every major insurance carrier in Orange County. Our estimates meet adjuster requirements and our repairs satisfy building inspector standards.

Why Homeowners Choose Truecraft Construction

Picking a roofing contractor feels risky. Your roof protects everything you own. Bad installation voids warranties, fails inspections, and costs thousands in redo work. You need proof that your contractor knows what they’re doing.

GAF Master Elite Certification

Only 3% of roofing contractors earn GAF Master Elite status. This certification requires:

  • Proven track record of quality installations
  • Strong customer satisfaction ratings
  • Business license and insurance verification
  • Commitment to ongoing training on new products
  • Financial stability to honor warranty claims

GAF Master Elite contractors offer enhanced warranties unavailable through standard installers. You receive manufacturer backing that covers both materials and workmanship, giving you protection if anything goes wrong years after installation.

CSLB Licensing and Insurance

California requires roofing contractors to carry CSLB licenses. Our license (C-39) stays in good standing with zero complaints on record. We maintain:

  • General liability insurance covering property damage
  • Workers’ compensation for every crew member
  • Surety bonds protecting homeowners from financial loss
  • Vehicle insurance for trucks and equipment

Unlicensed contractors offer lower bids but leave you exposed. If they damage your property, injure themselves, or abandon the job halfway through, you have no legal recourse. Our licensing proves we follow California regulations and protect homeowners throughout every project.

BBB A Rating

The Better Business Bureau grades contractors on complaint history, response time, and customer satisfaction. Our A rating reflects years of honest business practices. We resolve any concerns immediately and maintain transparent communication from estimate to final inspection.

Local Orange County Expertise

We know Orange County building codes, HOA requirements, and Title 24 energy regulations. Our crews handle permit applications, schedule inspections, and ensure every installation meets or exceeds California standards. National chains can’t match this local knowledge.

Orange County roofing faces unique challenges:

  • Coastal salt air corrodes fasteners faster than inland areas
  • Intense UV exposure breaks down asphalt shingles
  • HOA architectural review committees regulate tile colors and styles
  • Title 24 energy codes mandate cool roof compliance
  • Seismic requirements affect attachment specifications

We’ve installed thousands of roofs across Tustin, Mission Viejo, Orange, Irvine, Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach, Fountain Valley, Santa Ana, Fullerton, and Laguna Beach. Our experience with local conditions ensures your roof performs for decades.

Roofing Materials We Install in Orange County

Material selection affects performance, cost, and home value. We install proven products suited to California’s climate.

Clay and Concrete Tile

Spanish Colonial and Mediterranean homes across Orange County feature tile roofs. These materials last 50+ years when installed correctly. We work with:

  • Boral clay tile in traditional barrel and flat profiles
  • Eagle concrete tile offering lighter weight alternatives
  • Custom color matching for historical home preservation
  • Foam closures and bird stops preventing pest intrusion

Tile roofs require proper underlayment, battens, and fastening to resist wind uplift. Our crews follow manufacturer specifications exactly.

Asphalt Shingles

Composition shingles offer excellent value for Orange County tract homes. GAF Timberline HDZ shingles include:

  • LayerLock technology preventing shingle blow-off
  • StainGuard Plus protection against algae growth
  • Limited lifetime warranty with Master Elite installation
  • Cool roof colors meeting Title 24 requirements

Asphalt shingles typically last 20-30 years in California sun. We install premium products that maximize lifespan.

Metal Roofing

Modern homes and ADU structures benefit from metal roofing’s durability and energy efficiency. Benefits include:

  • 40-70 year lifespan with minimal maintenance
  • Reflects solar heat reducing cooling costs
  • Fire resistance (Class A rating)
  • Lightweight reducing structural loads
  • Recyclable at end of service life

We install standing seam and metal tile profiles in various colors and finishes.

Flat and Low-Slope Systems

Commercial buildings, home additions, and modern architecture sometimes require flat or low-slope roofing. We install:

  • TPO single-ply membranes
  • Modified bitumen systems
  • Built-up roofing (BUR)
  • Spray foam applications

Proper drainage and flashing separate successful flat roofs from recurring leak problems.
