"Incredible service from the EHL team. They replaced my shingle roof in Daly City in just 3 days. The drone inspection was super cool and honest—no hidden damage fees. Highly recommend!"
"I was quoted $24k by another company, but EHL did it for $18k with better materials (Landmark Pro). The crew was professional, cleaned up perfectly, and the 50-year warranty gives me peace of mind."
"Finally a roofer that answers the phone! The 2-hour response time is real. They fixed a leak in my flat roof that two other contractors couldn't find. Honest, direct, and skilled."

Flat roofs (Tar & Gravel or Modified Bitumen) are standard here. We specialize in converting old gravel roofs to modern, leak-proof TPO or Torch Down systems that resist the constant fog.
Victorian and Edwardian peaks require skilled shingle work and careful flashing around ornate details. We preserve the historic look while upgrading protection.
High-wind exposure and salt air demand premium slate, tile, or heavy-weight architectural shingles with stainless steel fasteners to prevent corrosion.
Commercial and mixed-use buildings benefit from our cool-roof coatings that reduce building cooling costs and meet strict Title 24 commercial standards.
Don't trust your San Francisco home to an out-of-town roofer. We know the codes, the climate, and the city.
