Nob Hill TPO Membrane Roofer

Nob Hill sits in San Francisco County and takes long dry heat, hard thermal cycling and rain that arrives in a few concentrated storms. In practice that means asphalt dries out and sealant pulls back from penetrations years before the field wears through.

Size, pitch, layer count and deck condition drive the number on any Nob Hill roof. The line that moves is deck repair, so it belongs in the Nob Hill quote at a rate per sheet rather than as an allowance.

In inland conditions, composition shingle runs roughly fifteen to twenty-five years, tile underlayment twenty to twenty-five, and coatings seven to fifteen depending on the system.

Two visits a year: clear valleys and gutters before the rains, then check flashings after the first real storm. In Nob Hill that matters most because asphalt dries out and sealant pulls back from penetrations years before the field wears through.

Yes. Low-slope sections on Nob Hill buildings need a membrane or coating system rather than shingle laid flatter than it is rated for, and they are quoted separately from the pitched roof.

Granules in the gutters, curling tabs, repeat stains in the same ceiling after every storm, and soft spots underfoot. In Nob Hill, asphalt dries out and sealant pulls back from penetrations years before the field wears through.

We start at the flashings, check the deck from inside the attic, and photograph every elevation. On a Nob Hill property we pay particular attention to dried-out underlayment and attic temperature.

A full replacement in Nob Hill is permitted and inspected through the San Francisco Department of Building Inspection. Small repairs generally are not, but the layer count and assembly are checked on any permitted job.
