The Scholarly Side of Your Orange County Roofer

A qualified Orange County roofer is an undisputed expert when it comes to installing and repairing roofs. Amazingly, this expertise covers quite an extensive territory. Not only must these professionals possess the skills necessary to evaluate, repair, or replace roofs. They also must understand the properties and capabilities of countless roofing materials. These include asphalt, tar, and metal, just to name a few.  Indeed, roofers must be masters of many arts. But roofing proficiency doesn’t just happen. The necessary skills and depth of knowledge must be honed through intensive training.

Doubtless, you Orange County roofer has received a substantial education in the roofing arts. Many become enlightened through on the job training under the guidance of an experienced master. A certain number of aspiring roofers earn their stripes through formalized apprentice programs. This structured schooling consists of in-classroom instruction bolstered by paid on-site training. During their educational journey, roofing students learn the rudiments of their chosen profession. Among the high-value topics covered are tools, materials, and safety.

After earning the necessary credentials, a roofer trainee typically is ready for work. But recent graduates aren’t thrown to the wolves right off the bat. Some experience must be gained before they’re ready for the big leagues. Generally, newcomers will start off light, perhaps performing tasks such as carrying tools. This applies to both the commercial roofer and the residential roofer. Once proven in the more basic tasks, the newly-trained roofer is at long last ready for major duties.

If you have questions about training for roofers, be sure to reach out to Luke Roofing. A long-established Orange County roofer in Fullerton, 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.

What Does an Orange County Roofer Install?

One function of an Orange County roofer, of course, is to install roofs. This job, however, requires more than laying down a few tiles. In fact, when an Orange County roofer installs a new roof, this professional must deal with a variety of components.

Whether a residential roofer or commercial roofer is on the job, these components remain fairly consistent. The first of them is the visible layer familiar to everyone, the roof covering. The material selected to cover and shield your rooftop is available in variety of styles and textures. The most common covering is shingles. Seen almost everywhere, these may be of the tile, slate, or metal variety. The choice depends on your personal preferences and objectives.  

Naturally, your chosen roof covering requires support. In roofing circles, that support is known as sheathing. This foundation typically is a board made of a sturdy material such as plywood. An Orange County roofer connects this board to your rafters, thereby supporting shingles or other covering.

Sheathing, in turn, requires its own support. That’s the job of rafters and trusses.  The first of these, rafters, are beams that run from the eaves to the roof peak. Consider it the basic framework of a roof. Similar to rafters, trusses provide support in the form of posts and struts.

The final component an Orange County roofer deals with is flashing. This is critical for preventing water from seeping into your home during inclement weather. Typically constructed of sheet metal, flashing is installed into roof joints and valleys.

If you have any questions about what an Orange County roofer installs in a roofing system, be sure to reach out to Luke Roofing. A long-established Orange County roofer, we provide prompt, reliable expertise for every residential or commercial roofing need and situation. From roofing services in Fullerton to roofing services in Laguna Beach, Luke Roofing has Orange County covered.

New Roofs Add Curb Appeal

new roof makeoverMost of the time, homeowners think of their home’s roof as nothing more than a utility. It’s just something that has to be replaced once in a while to be functional. But depending on your roofline, your roof could account for nearly half of what people see when they walk or drive past your home. That’s some serious real estate for the eyes, and you want to be sure that it looks great!

Luckily, adding curb appeal with a new roof isn’t that difficult, especially with all of the options on the market today. Here are a few ideas for updating your roof to create more curb appeal:

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!

Excellent roof and solar installation!

Luke's was fantastic before during and after my roof and solar was installed. I couldn't be happier since I love dealing with professionals.
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.

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.

Very Professional and Conscientious

During the week of rains here in So CA I had a leak in my roof. The leak was coming through a light fixture in the stairwell. I phoned Luke Roofing (as I had used them in the past) and within a day Jonathan stopped by to assess the damage. I was given an estimate within the given time period he said he would get back to me. I was told that they were 2 - 3 weeks out to do the job however I received a call within the week after the estimate indicating Lupe would be by the next day. Lupe is a polite man who spent about 2.5 hours working on the roof. When he was finished he informed me as to what caused the roof to leak and left for his next job. He was very professional and conscientious. I await the next rain storm to see if all was fixed - however there is a 2 year guarantee in the work done. The individuals employed by Luke Roofing are polite and professional. In the past Luke Roofing fixed my leaking roof in another part of the house and I did not have any leaks. I would do business with them anytime.

I recently purchased a solar system through Luke Roofing. I couldn't be more happy with how it turned out. I could tell up front that Gary is an honest professional and I had a strong sense that he would treat me right. I did not get this same impression from most of the other companies I spoke to. He designed the exact system I needed and presented me a fair price. Since I have a clay tile roof, I was concerned about the re-roofing necessary for the job. After he explained how he would do it and comparing it to what other companies said they would do, I felt assured that working with Luke Roofing would insure that the job was done right. Gary handled everything from designing the system, getting signatures from neighbors, obtaining approvals from my HOA and the city, purchasing the best hardware, installing the system (including the re-roofing), getting final inspections completed, and having me switched over to net metering with SDGE. He even submitted the application for the SDGE rebate. The whole process took only a few weeks.

I was also impressed by Gary's dedication to doing the job right. After my system was up for a few days I noticed some of the panels were not performing well due to shading by two of my chimneys. Gary was surprised since the estimate he originally obtained from the solar panel company did not show that this would happen. He went back to the company, got new estimates, and immediately agreed that panels needed to be relocated. In short order his team came out and relocated a number of panels. Now my system is producing better than the original estimate. Gary never once hesitated or complained about having to do this re-work.

My system has been performing flawlessly for almost two months now. I highly recommend Luke Roofing for any roofing or solar installation job. He is a no-nonsense guy and is extremely agreeable and easy to work with. I am proud of myself for being such a good judge of character.

Family Business

I found Luke Roofing for my project by asking roofing manufacturers who they would pick to put their roof on. Two out of two picked Luke. I used them for my roof and solar installations. They exceeded my expectations throughout my installation. I highly recommend this family business. Dave Koepke

My experience with Luke Roofing Inc. goes back some twenty plus years when I replaced my shingle roof with a class A asphalt roof.  It was nice to know that he is still in business !  I was not surprised really when I thought about it,  because his price was competitive, they did exactly as the contract said with no surprises, they cleaned up at the end of each work day and if my memory serves me correctly they wrapped up the job a little earlier than expected.  I have since recommended them to many of my neighbors with no complaints that I am aware of...I think they must be a reputable company that does good work or they wouldn't still be in business !

Very happy with my new roof!
Luke Roofing did a great job on my roof. It was a pleasure doing business with them. The roofers were polite, they showed up everyday and went right to work as did they leave the premises clean everyday. The job was over looked by
Will Dunlap and he communicated with me almost daily. I highly recommend this company for your roofing needs. Barbara Straub
