Peak of Perfection

Sometimes they’re known by the illustrious names pitched or peaked roof. But Orange County roofers and their customers typically refer to them as gable. Not surprisingly, gable roofs are among the most popular in the United States. And we Orange County roofing companies certainly deal with our share of them. As with virtually any other type of roof, the gable variety has its advantages and its disadvantages. If you’re considering a home with one of these roof shapes, here’s what you should know:  
 
Advantages of Gable Roofs
 
It doesn’t take a seasoned commercial roofer to reveal the most notable advantage of this roof type. One look at its sloping shape will tell you everything you need to know – rainwater, courtesy of gravity, rolls right off of it. Thus, moisture has a more difficult time collecting on a this slanted rooftop. 
 
Another benefit provided by the gable shape is the abundant space it creates atop your home. With a gable roof, you’ve got plenty of room for an attic or a soaring vaulted ceiling. 
You’ll discover that gable roofs even can reduce housing costs. If, for instance, you were considering purchasing a new home being built in Irvine, any Irvine roofer will tell you that gable roofs are comparatively easy to construct. And that makes them less expensive. 
 
The primary disadvantage of gable roofs is their vulnerability to intense wind. If a big gust does happen to kick up (not exactly an everyday occurrence in the OC), the force can strip away roofing materials. But this would be a rarity in this part of the world. Nevertheless, an Orange County roofer could reinforce a gable roof if so desired. 
 
If you have any questions about gable roofs, be sure to reach out to Luke Roofing. A long-established Orange County roofer, we provide prompt, reliable expertise for every need and situation. Whether you need roofing services in Capistrano Beach or anywhere else in OC, you definitely can count on Luke Roofing.

One More Use for Your Roof

If you’re a natural-born entertainer, an Orange County roofer may prove extremely valuable. No, they won’t play host to your lively get-togethers. (Although many have sparkling personalities well-suited to the task). Nor will they provide music, dancing, or games. But they may have the ability to create and install a private entertainment space atop your roof.  Otherwise known as a rooftop deck, the space offers you and your guests a very special vantage point conducive to breathtaking views and a unique perspective on surrounding scenery. Not only will the deck provide constant enjoyment; it will increase your popularity by leaps and bounds. Yes, a rooftop deck is the height of entertainment in more ways than one.

As previously mentioned, a rooftop deck offers occupants exhilarating views of the local environment. So the last thing you want is an obstruction blocking the show. If commissioned to install such a deck, an Orange County residential roofer will take this potential problem into account. One obstruction they commonly deal with is the overhanging tree. Don’t worry. The roofers probably won’t recommend the uprooting or extreme trimming of your favorite sycamore. But they will give strong consideration to nearby trees before installation begins.

In many cases, an Orange County roofer may recommend placing a deck near an overhanging tree. There are two reasons for this positioning. First, those limbs and branches provide comforting shade, an undeniable advantage during the scorching summer months. Secondly, the extensions offer a certain amount of privacy. Thus, trees can complement a rooftop deck very nicely. So long as they don’t get in the way.

If you have questions about rooftop decks, be sure to reach out to Luke Roofing. A long-established Orange County roofer in Capistrano Beach and surrounding areas, we provide prompt, reliable expertise for every residential roofing and commercial roofing need. No matter where you live in OC, you can count on Luke Roofing for the most efficient, reliable roofing solutions.

9 Questions for your Roof Installer

Hiring roofers in Orange County is a big deal for a homeowner. Getting your roof repaired or replaced can cost big money. And you want to be sure you’re spending your cash wisely and well. So before you sign a contract with a roofer, ask these 9 questions to be sure you’re hiring the right roofing company:

1. Are you licensed?Roofers in Orange County should be licensed by the state. A license doesn't guarantee excellent work, but working with an unlicensed contractor is sketchy, at best.

2. Are you a member of any roofing associations? Again, the fact that a roofing company is a member of a roofing association doesn't guarantee that they do good work. But those who are association members tend to be more up-to-date on the latest methods and products on the market. Association membership can prove that a roofing company is serious about its work.

Recommended by Friend, Very Reasonable!

Luke Roofing was recommended to us by a friend. Came out to give us a quote on a leak and had it fixed the same day! Very reasonable, at less than half the price quoted to us by another company. One year warranty. We would use them again for sure!

Highly recommended!

I hired Luke Roofing to install a large solar system and a new roof for an addition to my home.  They were on time, clean, and quick.  I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

Absolutely Professional

We had our 32 year old cedar shake roof replaced with the GAF timeline architectural roof.  The guys were absolutely professional.  They arrived on time and completed the entire project in three days.  We had lots of dry rot damage as well as termite damage.  It was replaced perfectly.  Every day the work site was clean.  I was referred by a close friend and I have also referred my brother.  My neighbors were amazed how it looks and how quickly it was done.

I was challenged with a very complicated roofing problems as it was made of metal, tile and installed wrong which caused many leaks. The roof was only 10 years old!!  It took me 3-4 months of interviewing contractors as I needed to get the right one. Can you believe that the only one to come up with a water test on top of the roof was Gary the owner! Such a simple thing but everyone else was taking my word where the leaks were. Don't take my word! I'm not a roofer!! Gary and his team went above and beyond. His fabricator was brilliant in the redesign as it had ridges, crickets and slopes down instead of puddling. Luke Roofing knows what there doing!!

Really good crew.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality

Second job done by Luke Roofing for us...price was fine; timeline not important in our case, but they came when they said they would, and finished in two days. Really good crew, polite, considerate, and the work was quality. Cleanup was first class. One minor nick on our front gate on the way out, but easy agreement on how to handle it (accidents can happen to anybody). Really can't ask for more, and I would recommend them to anyone. Thanks guys.

Good Honorable Company

In early 2019, when the severe rains came, I had two leaks in my upstairs master bathroom, about ten feet apart.  I was somewhat desperate, and tried several roofing companies.  The waiting list for everybody, including Luke, was lengthy, but i had no choice but to wait.  I picked Luke because of high ratings on Angie's List.  Glad I did.  

As it turned out, one flat area required a new roof.  I paid for that, approximately $3,000, and both leaks stopped.  A few months later, both leaks reappeared.  i couldn't believe it.  No problem, Luke's people came out and inspected everything.  A team of 3-4 men spent hours on the roof, going over everything.  They determined that neither leak was related to the roof or their work I had one drain completely stuffed with leaves, and another area where the stucco on the wall around the roof was severely deteriorated. They showed me several pictures. After fixing those problems with a plumber and a stucco company, those two leaks are gone.  No new leaks until last week.  

Last week, a new leak appeared, in a totally different location.  Erin Luke sent a man out to the house who fixed that leak immediately and I paid a small $200-$300 invoice.  

This is a good honorable, company, who will show up when they say they will, and charge a very fair price.  They are now my "go to" roofers.  I've referred them to others.

After spending 4 frustrating months dealing with insurance company and bank to settle a disaster claim for part of my roof, Luke was a breath of fresh air. My roof was partially damaged, but it was old so I decided to replace the whole thing. I took bids from several companies and, although Luke was not the absolute low bid, I have to say that I selected them because of the perceived "value" for me. I am a business owner and I place a high premium on companies who treat their customers right and with high integrity. They did exactly what they said they were going to do and there were no surprises. They also finished the job 1-2 days before they quoted, which I very much appreciated. They worked closely with my chosen Solar company (Sullivan Solar) to prep the roof for solar install, which is happening next month.

My neighbor even saw them working and hired them for his roof repair job.

I highly recommend Luke for any roofing project. Good, honest, fair and reliable. Nobody likes to spend money on these things, but if you have to, it sure feels a lot better when you can do it with a company that you can trust.
