Lafayette Full Replacement: 2022 GAF Timberline HDZ
A Lafayette homeowner called us after two failed patch attempts. We replaced the full deck in three days — no subcontractors, no callbacks.
Location: Lafayette, CA — 2022
The homeowner had a 22-year-old architectural shingle roof showing granule loss across three slopes. Two prior contractors had patched the valleys; both failed within a season. We inspected, documented the deck rot beneath, and filed the insurance supplement ourselves at no charge.
Materials: GAF Timberline HDZ in Charcoal, ice-and-water shield on all eaves and valleys, synthetic underlayment on field decking, new galvanized step flashing at every wall junction.
Our crew of four stayed on-site start-to-finish — tear-off on day one, decking repairs and underlayment on day two, shingles and flashing day three. We pulled the city permit and scheduled the final inspection before we left.
Outcome: Passed inspection first attempt. Insurance covered 80% of the replacement cost. The homeowner has our 10-year workmanship warranty plus GAF's Golden Pledge coverage. License C-39 192109 on file with CSLB.
Frequently Asked Questions About Shingle Roofing
We've been installing shingle roofs in Contra Costa County since 2008. Here are answers to common questions homeowners ask before booking.
How long does a shingle roof last in Walnut Creek?
With proper installation and ventilation, architectural shingles from GAF or CertainTeed typically last 25–30 years. Our 18 years of local experience mean we know how to combat the marine layer and heat cycles that shorten roof life.
Do you install all types of asphalt shingles?
Yes. We're certified installers for GAF, CertainTeed, and Malarkey. We'll help you choose between 3-tab, architectural, or premium designer shingles based on your budget and home's style.
What warranty do you offer on shingle roofs?
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on full replacements. As a GAF Certified Contractor, we can also offer the Golden Pledge warranty for extra material coverage. All work is backed by our general liability and workers' comp insurance.
Can you help with my insurance claim?
Absolutely. Every inspection includes insurance claim documentation at no extra charge. We'll help you navigate the process and provide all necessary photos and reports.
How much does shingle roofing cost in Walnut Creek?
Cost varies by roof size, slope, and shingle choice. On average, architectural shingle replacement runs $7–12 per square foot installed. We provide free, no-obligation estimates with transparent pricing – no hidden fees.
Do you tear off old shingles or install over them?
We always tear off old layers to inspect the decking and ensure a proper installation. Building codes in most Contra Costa cities limit roofs to two layers, and covering issues now leads to costly repairs later.

What Our Customers Say
4.8 stars · 108+ verified reviews
Walnut Creek Roofers replaced our 22-year-old shingle roof in two days flat. The crew was respectful of our landscaping, cleaned up every nail, and the GAF system they installed looks incredible. The price was fair and they filed the permit without us having to chase it. Will absolutely call them again.
After a winter storm tore off two sections of our flashing, Walnut Creek Roofers was on-site within 24 hours. They tarped the exposed decking that same afternoon, walked us through the insurance claim process, and had the permanent repair done by end of week. Honest estimates, no upsell pressure.
I called for a pre-purchase inspection on a home in Orinda. The inspector found two soft spots the listing agent hadn't mentioned, documented everything with photos, and gave me a written repair estimate I could use in negotiations. Saved me thousands.
