Our Residential Roofing Services in Davis CA
We cover the full range of roofing services a Davis property needs, and we tie every service to one outcome: long-term protection that holds up over time. Roof inspections help catch issues before they escalate, leaks addressed early stay small and cheap to fix, and a sound roof protects the structural integrity of everything beneath it. Below is what our expert team does and when each makes sense for your roofing needs.
Expert Roof Repair & Leak Repair
A roof repair is the right call when damage is contained and the roof still has useful life left. We handle minor repairs too, fixing flashing, replacing damaged shingles, and sealing problem areas so water stays out. Addressing a leak immediately keeps it from turning into decking rot and interior staining. Most roof repairs are straightforward once the source is found, and our roofing crew is trained to track a leak back to its real origin rather than patch the symptom. For urgent weather damage, we also offer emergency services.
Roof Replacement & New Roof Installation
Roof replacements make sense when repairs keep stacking up or the roof is past 20 years, since older roofs are far more prone to leaks. New roof installations begin with a full system: new underlayment, proper ventilation, and your choice of asphalt shingles, tile, metal, or flat roofing as premium materials. For lifetime-quality asphalt systems, we install the Owens Corning Total Protection System, and the exact coverage is detailed on the manufacturer’s warranty page. High quality roofing solutions start with the right roofing materials, and a proper installation is what makes them perform. Whether you need a new roof over the living space or the garage roof, the same standard applies.
Roof Inspection
A roof inspection finds early damage before it becomes a repair bill. We recommend a check twice a year, plus one before you list a home for sale or add solar panels. Catching worn flashing, lifted shingles, or sagging areas early keeps a small problem small, and every inspection ends with a clear report rather than a vague verdict.
Residential & Commercial Roofing
We handle residential roofing across every Davis property type, from single-family homes to manufactured housing. We also provide commercial roofing for business owners who need flat, single-ply, or silicone systems installed and maintained. Whether the job is a home or a business, the same in-house crews and written scopes apply. As roofing contractors who specialize in exteriors, we carry that focus into every job.
Storm Damage & Insurance Claim Support
After weather damage, we document the roof with before-and-after photos and work with your homeowner’s insurance company on repair or replacement. We use neutral, factual process language and never promise an outcome. Our job is to make the claim clearer, not more stressful.
Roof Maintenance & Gutters
Regular maintenance can extend a roof’s lifespan significantly and is a sensible step for homeowners not ready for a full replacement. We install seamless gutters and handle gutter cleaning to clear debris that collects at valleys under the mature trees common across Davis. Clean gutters keep water moving off the roof instead of pooling along the edges. Metal roofs, where chosen, add longevity and resistance to harsh weather.
Why Davis Homeowners Choose Cobex Construction Group
The difference most companies skip is Davis-specific project administration, and it is where we lead. A Davis reroof is not just tear-off and install. The City requires permitted construction projects to divert 65% of non-land-clearing construction and demolition debris, and it will not final your permit until the C&D Diversion Report is approved. We handle that permit package, the debris removal, and documentation as part of the job, not as an afterthought you discover at the end.
Behind the paperwork is a real team. Our crews are in-house, not subcontracted, and every project carries an assigned project manager, a superintendent for oversight, and a Client Success Manager whose job is keeping you informed through the whole process. You always know who to call. Customer satisfaction is built into that structure, not bolted on at the end, and quality workmanship is something we take pride in on every project.
A Licensed, Insured Company With a Strong BBB Rating
On the trust side, verify everything: our CSLB License #1031864 is active and public, and our BBB rating reflects accreditation held since 2017, while BuildZoom places us in the top 1% of California licensed contractors. Davis-area roofing companies average around 4.3 stars across roughly 120 vetted firms, which is exactly why comparing licensed, well-reviewed roofers matters. We recommend hiring a business with a longstanding regional presence over an out-of-state storm chaser, and confirming that any roofer carries both general liability and workers’ compensation insurance. As a trusted name in the industry, we are proud of the roofs we have installed for customers across the Sacramento area.

How Our Davis Roofing Process Works, Step by Step to Final Inspection
Our process runs from first call to final inspection in five clear steps, with a written scope so the price you approve is the price you pay. We provide an itemized written estimate that spells out the scope of work, because the smart move for any homeowner is to get multiple estimates and compare them line by line. Financing options are available if you want quality work with payment flexibility.
- Free inspection and itemized quote. We assess the roof, flag overhanging trees and solar, and put the full scope in writing, including flashing, ventilation, disposal, and permit line items.
- Jurisdiction and permit. We confirm whether the parcel falls under the City of Davis Building Division at 23 Russell Boulevard, Suite 2, pull the reroof permit, and prepare the C&D diversion plan.
- Scheduling. We build the schedule around tree clearance, existing solar, and weather, and submit inspection requests by the 3:30 p.m. deadline on the preceding business day.
- In-house installation. Our own crew does the work. Most roof installations take one to three days depending on size, with permit and inspection timing layered on top.
- Cleanup, documentation, and final inspection. We complete cleanup, submit the approved C&D Diversion Report, and schedule the final inspection, which the City will not sign off until that report clears.
If we find damaged decking after tear-off, we show you, and any added work is approved in writing before we proceed. That is how “no surprises” actually works. We also pair manufacturer and workmanship coverage so your roof is protected on both the material and the labor side; a dual warranty package is the stronger choice, and our manufacturer certifications let us offer enhanced coverage a standard roofer cannot.
What Makes Roofing in the Davis Area Different
Davis has no single housing era, so a credible inspection reads the actual roof rather than assuming a citywide age. Old North Davis is a ten-block extension of the original Davisville grid dating to 1913, where older framing, past alterations, and ventilation all deserve a close look before a roof is replaced. Village Homes was built across the 1970s and 1980s with shared open space and distinctive drainage. Stonegate, planned in 1968 around Stonegate Lake, reads as established West Davis housing. Mace Ranch (mid-1990s, anchored by Mace Ranch Park) and Wildhorse (late-1990s, anchored by Wildhorse Golf Course) now carry roofs old enough to warrant inspection. Rancho Yolo, a 55+ community built in 1989, needs an assessment suited to manufactured homes, not a standard single-family assumption. In 2023, 45.5% of Davis housing was detached single-family and 43.4% was multifamily, so we inspect for the right structure every time.
Climate shapes the schedule. Davis sits on the flat Putah Creek Plain near 51 feet of elevation, so hillside access is rarely the issue; summer heat is. The City will not perform asphalt roof final inspections on hot afternoons, so we plan work and inspection timing around that. Fresh shingles and quality materials still matter most for durability and curb appeal, and an early inspection catches problems before the wet season.
Trees and history are the other Davis variables. Mature trees drop debris at valleys and into gutters, and the City directs homeowners needing City-tree clearance to consider a City Tree Permit, which we flag during inspection. In conservation-framework neighborhoods like Old North, Old East, and University Avenue/Rice Lane, work on designated resources may require a Certificate of Appropriateness. Our Sacramento office supports roofing projects across Sacramento County and nearby communities like West Sacramento and El Dorado, with coordination built around clear schedules and regular updates.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Davis?
Yes. The City of Davis Building Division at 23 Russell Boulevard, Suite 2 issues reroof permits for properties inside city limits, and roofing is a listed material category on the C&D Diversion Plan. We confirm the correct jurisdiction by parcel address and handle the full permit package, since California companies must be CSLB-licensed to pull it.
How long does a Davis roof replacement take?
Installation usually runs one to three days depending on roof size, with permit and inspection timing added on top. The City publishes a general building-permit processing estimate of 20 to 35 business days from submittal, though that figure is not reroof-specific. Remember that inspection requests must be submitted by 3:30 p.m. the preceding business day.
What does a new roof cost in Davis CA?
Cost depends on roof area, pitch, decking condition found at tear-off, material, and permit and debris administration, so we give an itemized written quote rather than a flat figure. A professional quote is the only honest way to price your property. Financing options are available if you want to spread the investment out. Request a free estimate and we will put the full scope in writing.
What is the 25% rule in roofing?
It is a common guideline that if more than 25% of a roof needs work, full replacement is often more cost-effective than ongoing roof repairs. Roofs older than 20 years are also prone to recurring leaks. We help you weigh repair against replacement during the inspection so the decision is based on the roof’s actual condition.
Are there special rules for older or historic Davis neighborhoods?
Yes. Work on designated resources in areas like Old North Davis, Old East Davis, and University Avenue/Rice Lane may require a Certificate of Appropriateness, so we check designation before scheduling. If City trees need clearing for the work, a City Tree Permit may apply, with a current published fee of $150 and review time that varies by staff availability.
