I contacted several roofing and gutter companies to get estimates for a few projects. I am very happy that I chose Saber Roofing for plenty of reasons. 1) The owner, Ryan, met with me to discuss the work and was very thorough and helpful in answering all my questions. 2) Important details were covered including adding a rain chain in a location where a downspout would have been unsightly (picture attached). Among the details, the rain chain is made of copper while the gutter is made of aluminum. Having these two metals come in contact could compromise the aluminum over time. So, Saber installed the copper rain chain with a protective barrier. 3) Their client service and sales director, Jake, was super helpful and extremely responsive to all my questions. 4) The crew was very efficient, provided high quality workmanship, and left the site spotless. 5) The gutter guards that were installed provide a really fine barrier to prevent even small debris from entering my gutters, but are easy to rinse so that fine particles can be washed through the gutters. 6) The two downspouts that were installed were matched to the color of our trim. Other companies offer limited colors or simply white downspouts, but Saber offers a wide variety. 7) Their pricing is very competitive. From end to end, this was a great experience and I highly recommend Saber Roofing. read more

You can believe all the five-star reviews about Saber Roofing. We got six bids to replace our roofs after receiving a letter from our insurance company saying we had to replace the roofs. Saber Roofing's was the highest bid because they noted that the original cedar shake roof from 1920 was still there. Usually you might not take the highest bid, but that let us know they would do the thorough job they did. Worth every penny. They worked quickly and left the yard cleaner than they found it! read more

Our newly purchased home had gutters that were full, and the home inspection noted minor roof repairs that were needed. Jake from Saber Roofing responded to our inquiry almost immediately, scheduled a visit for an estimate, and worked around our schedule. Mario and Alexis came to do the work. They were prompt, pleasant, and efficient. They cleaned up everything after the job was done, too. Saber Roofing is a great company that gives expert service! read more

Sabor Roofing is an excellent roofing company. They recently repaired a leak in our roof and we were very satisfied with the repair work. Also the repair crew that was sent out was excellent. Fast and efficient. read more

Last spring I started looking for a roofing contractor to replace the roof and some skylights on my Victorian style house in Los Altos. My house has many roof surfaces on three levels. I wanted a team that could handle complexity. I saw that Saber roofing had good reviews and from the pictures on their site I saw that they had worked on complex roofs like mine. I met with Ryan Saber, and he clearly laid out his plan for replacing my roof. I liked his level of detail and that he offered, as part of the contract, an extended warranty on workmanship that was longer than any of the other roofers who made bids. I signed with them, and I gave them two calendar windows in the summer for doing the work. They called me at the beginning of the second window to schedule. The team showed up when they said they would, they worked hard for two weeks and they finished on schedule. At the end of each day they picked up any significant debris they created that day. The foreman, Juan, came to the property each day and would discuss the progress made that day with me if I was home and send me an email and pictures if I wasn't there. He explained what they had done and what they were going to do the next day. There were no surprises. Juan told me that many members of the installation team had been with the company for years. It showed. The team seemed to enjoy their work. They found some rotten wood and replaced it. They also made several improvements to my roof by adding additional flashings to divert water and by the use of new ventilation holes and ridge caps to help moisture escape. I had not specifically asked for these, but I was very pleased that they made these improvements. They also replaced eight skylights with much more modern skylights. The new skylights that have greatly improved the rooms on which they were installed. They found some hidden damage earlier roofers had ignored and went to great effort in making it right. After some bad experiences with contractors in the past couple of years, it was important to me to hire a company that employed professionals, produced good quality work and met their commitments. Saber Roofing did all of that. While not cheap, their prices were competitive with the other bids I received. The work was very high quality. I strongly recommend them. read more

Saber did a great job assessing storm damage to our tile roofing with photographic evidence which I really appreciated because a different company had said our roof was fine, despite leaks into the house. The repair was seamless and the cost reasonable. Very satisfied! read more

We had our roof and gutter done by Saber and everything went outstanding. Prices were relatively reasonable. They were easy to communicate with, very professional and kind. Walked us through everything, step by step. Definitely will call them again for any future work and I will definitely recommend them to all our friends and families. read more

Saber Roofing did an outstanding job from start to finish. They were incredibly timely, professional, and responsive, providing daily updates and photos so we always knew exactly what was happening. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and their crew was respectful and efficient on-site. Best of all, their pricing was the most competitive I could find--and I did my homework. Highly recommend Saber Roofing if you want quality work and peace of mind. read more

Saber Roofing owner Ryan Saber gave my home's roof a very thorough estimate with a clear, specific contract. I trusted his work and his company name was referred by a reputable contractor. Saber Roofing did an excellent job!  Ryan explained my roof-tile options and had great links to what they look like on real houses through his website.His site also provided information about the roofing process and materials. I waited for his service through winter rain & my own scheduling limitations, and it was more than worth the wait. Ryan's crew were professional, kept the site clean, repaired some rot of my 26-yr-old roof, installing new roof vents that only his company had recommended for safety & energy savings. I had asked for certain areas to be sealed well, preventing any  "creatures' " entrance that he'd agreed needed to be professionally corrected, which his crew did very thoroughly.  Ryan was available throughout the process and got back to me immediately with any questions I had. The contract added the plywood replacement  for the rotted areas, all clearly noted and within the price frame in the contract for unknown rot once the old roof was removed. The total payment was understandable & reasonable. The roof looks great, their guarantee also great. I couldn't be happier with the excellent professionalism, caring & quick communication Ryan's Saber Roofing provided. read more

I called Saber Roofing to take a look at a leak in my gutter. Ryan came out to assess the gutters and roof. He quickly determined that the corner seam had split (and thankfully that was the only problem with the gutters) and said "I can patch that for you in 5 minutes." Which he did, at no charge because he said their consultations are free. I will be using them for all future roof and gutter projects for my home. I highly recommend Saber Roofing! read more

Terrific experience with Saber. Communicated product information to make my decision easy. Quote received quickly. Scheduled around my convenience. Highly recommend Saber if you are looking to replace your skylights. Install crew was so professional. Saber contacted me quickly to ensure I was happy. read more

Saber Roofing did a really nice job on a challenging repair job involving 40+ year old concrete shingles. It was clear from the initial meeting that they have deep roofing expertise, and ultimately their workmanship was excellent. Couldn't be happier. Thank you, Ryan & team. read more

Saber Roofing did an excellent job replacing my old skylights with new Velux units. They were very responsive during the selection phase and professional in presenting all Velux options compatible with my existing roof, curbs, and flashings--even before I signed the contract (thank you, Jake!). Measurements were taken precisely for three standard and two custom sizes, and the new skylights fit perfectly into the old curbs. One skylight arrived damaged during transport (not Saber's fault), but their crew installed the other four right away and returned promptly a week later to complete the job. Communication was excellent throughout, and the installation team was professional, respectful, and efficient. Given such great service, I was pleasantly surprised by how competitive Saber's pricing was. Another roofer hired by my HOA for our complex's re-roofing project -- where skylights were optional -- quoted significantly more for the same skylight work. The recent storm clearly demonstrated the quality of Saber's installation: while my neighbor's HOA-installed skylights leaked, my new Saber-installed Velux skylights kept me completely dry. Thank you to Ryan Saber, Jake Burner, Juan Godinez, and the entire crew for your professionalism and outstanding work! read more

They are very thorough and will do the job right the first time. The job site is cleaned every day.

We had several roofing companies inspect our home for potential roof maintenance. Juan from Saber Roofing visited our property and pointed out issues that none of the other inspectors had noticed. They also provided us with a detailed quote of the work to be done. Although we are not going ahead with the work at this time, we highly recommend their inspection service. read more

Saber Roofing has been a great company to deal with over the last 20+ years that we have used them. The entire team is professional, capable and very helpful when we needed it. The best review I can leave is that we have recommended them to dear friends and wouldn't do that for any less than a great company. read more

If I could give Saber Roofing 10 stars I would! They are the most competent and trusting roofing company I've ever had. Saber Roofing did a complete composite shingle roof on our home. (fire proof) They were courteous, on time, fixed more than was required, and the price was reasonable. The people working for Saber Roofing have been working for the company for many years - compared to any fly-by-night type people. The project leader, Juan, answered all our questions and was most helpful in every way possible. I would recommended them without hesitation. Beautiful job, well done! read more

Highly recommend Saber Roofing after working with Ryan and team for a roof replacement and solar panel plus powerwall install (via RM Energy who Ryan is also part of). Info and pricing was all very clear with strong warranty and excellent track record. The solar division was a big selling point as well so i could have the two co-ordinated which was a massive help. Also want to highlight Juan the general manager who came out to inspect our roof originally and gave me an honest opinion that roof still had at least another 5 - 10 years left based on current condition. Really appreciated his honesty even though we decided to go ahead with a replacement as we wanted to get the solar panels up by end of year to take advantage of tax cuts. Install team did a great job, was all done in a couple of days and they left the yard and driveway completely clear of debris and nails. We've had quite a lot of work done over last 6 months and I almost always find something left on the driveway that could puncture car rotes but this was an excellent clean up job on top the solid new roof! read more

The team was on-time and very professional for all aspects of the job. The crew doing the work was extremely efficient and did superior quality work! With all of the rain this season, they saved us a lot of potential headaches. I would highly recommend Saber Roofing for any project. read more

Ryan and the Saber Roofing team is amazing. Every time we work together, I have peace of mind. We have worked together for years. I keep coming back. Our first time working together, they helped repair a leak and put back our skylight better than it was before the job started! The edges of the skylight's old metal frame was not flush but it was flush after Saber Roofing made the repair! Since, we have also made a full roof replacement (replaced old wood shakes to composite shingle) and love the work. Timely, professional, and very clear with their communications. This is our go-to roofing company. read more

The entire team was great to work with and everything went very smoothly. I'm a worrier and always need to understand everything that's going on (to the point of often being annoying) and Ryan Saber, Jake Burner and Juan Godinez were always very patient and helpful. But I have to single out Juan for special thanks. He is the embodiment of knowledge, competence and customer service and inspired a lot of confidence. So, it's been a really good experience (of course, I'll have to wait for the next rainy season to get the full picture). read more

Highly recommend Saber Roofing. We appreciated Ryan's honest feedback during the initial roof inspection--he didn't try to upsell and took a very pragmatic, straightforward approach. Once we signed the contract, he maintained excellent communication throughout the entire process. We especially valued the daily updates and the photos they sent at the end of each day. Their professionalism and quality of work were truly top-notch. Saber Roofing also coordinated the city inspection and final sign-off. In addition, they seamlessly handled communication with EM Energy for our solar installation, saving me valuable time. read more

I agree with the previous reviewer who suggested 10 stars for Saber Roofing, if only it were allowed. We needed to replace our shake roof with shingles, and had done some research into the issues that this entails (installing plywood over the entire roof and providing good ventilation to avoid the second story of our home from getting too warm). We requested several bids and discussed options with several top-rated companies. Ryan, the owner of Saber, immediately impressed me as being experienced, thoughtful in his recommendations about ventilation and other issues, and Saber's bid came in around the middle of those we received. A good friend's neighbor also recommended them, so we were set. Scheduling was straightforward, communication with us was timely, and when an unexpected opening came up, our job began. I cannot write enough good things about the work itself. Juan, the job foreman, spoke with me every day, showing photos of the work from tear-out to finished job. As Ryan suspected, they found some serious damage from an improperly installed renovation and partial re-roofing from 20 years ago. Thus, we were prepared for the need for extra work, and the extra expense. Juan walked me through their plans to repair the rotted wood (replace when necessary, bolster when feasible), provided pictures each day of their progress, and an accounting of the man-hours worked. He readily answered all questions. Jake in their office, provided spreadsheets of multiple prior jobs, arranged by location, and as we narrowed down our choice of shingles, provided updated spreadsheets by color and style. We asked a bunch of questions and all were answered completely. Samples were dropped off as soon as we narrowed down to our final color and style choices. The final job is wonderful. We were worried about the change from wooden shakes to shingles, but the work was so perfectly done that we are totally pleased with the look. You can tell by looking at the detail around flashings, ridges, and corners, where everything is integrated together perfectly. We also replaced our gutters, but not downspouts, and the new ones also look fantastic. Again, the work was carefully done, so no areas of bent metal or slightly mis-matched joints. I would strongly recommend Saber Roofing for anything ranging from a full re-roofing job to a smaller repair. read more

Saber was responsive to my inquiry and performed their work quickly and professionally. I would recommend Saber for any roof repairs/replacement. read more

They were great; friendly, easy to work with, reliable, fixed problems quickly, and showed a lot of expertise. I highly recommend them.

Great service. I had a large skylight "fail". Ryan came out, gave estimate and within a week a replacement was installed. Nice crew. No mess. Yes, I will use Saber again! read more

I am so happy that I chose Saber Roofing to replace my roof! From start to finish, the process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. The team was very knowledgeable, kind, punctual, and respectful of my property. They took the time to explain every step, provide daily updates & photos and answered every question. They are true professionals and the quality shows. My new roof looks amazing, and I've already had neighbors compliment it! They left the area spotless each day and after the job was done, which really shows their attention to detail and care. Don't hesitate to work with Saber - whether it's for roof repairs or a full replacement - they are the very best!! read more

I'll highly recommend Saber based on my experience with Ryan. I did not end up using their services, but that was because of Ryan's honest assessment that what I had is not really a roofing issue - so no charge. It's refreshing to experience such professionalism, and I'll be sure to call Ryan the next time I need any work on our roof. read more

Saber Roofing is top notch. From quote to install they delivered value. Great team, high quality work, family company.

Called Saber Roofing to address a leak in the attic that was noticed as we were getting our HVAC fixed. I had to wait 2 weeks before someone could come out but it was worth the wait! I was greeted by Ryan Saber who took a look at my roof despite it raining outside. He was able to patch up a small void where water could get into the attic and let me know that my roof shingles should be checked in a few years as well as some rotting wood on the roof that I should get removed at some point by myself or by a handyman. I was blown away by the service I received and it definitely made my day! Thank you Ryan and I'll be calling you when its time for more roof repairs! read more

Saber Roofing has saved us time and time again---once, before we were even a customer. Many years back, we had a leak from the roof during a sudden storm. They called us back mid-storm, and, from iPhone pics, were able to identify the problem being the edge of one of the skylights. When the storm abated, they came out an fixed the issue---for free. Flash forward 15 years, and we used them to make new rain gutters, extruding the aluminum in one piece, and adding appropriate wedge thingies to the roof to direct the water. They are perfect. Most recently, we used them again to completely reroof the main house, which has a slanted roof, and reroof the flat roof of the garage. I honestly can't say enough good things about the whole process----who knew there were so many options of roof shingles? Colors, shapes, types of material? As I commented to Ryan, this reminded me of planning my wedding: suddenly, I was caring about things I had never even thought of before, like napkin colors and salad plates. Anyway, I was able to take home multiple sample boards, and choose the one that suited our house the best. Similarly, the flat roof had many options, and we went with something different, but blending nicely with, the main house roof. The whole process went smoothly, and communication was great. We won't use anyone else, and neither will anyone else in our neighborhood. They're the best! read more

Some greedy contractors sent my 84 year old mom off on a goose chase thinking she needed to replace her roof. One of them even got a deposit out of her but couldn't figure out the Foster City and our HOA requirements. I came in a year later and decided we needed a second opinion. I'm glad I called Saber Roofing because as soon as he got out of the car he was telling me we didn't need a new roof. Imagine driving into a neighborhood of multi million dollar houses and talking yourself out of the job before you got on a ladder. That's how honest Mr. Saber is. He had done our neighbor's roofs, he had pulled permits for Foster City and our HOA, and when he got up there and gave me the truth. We might have spent over 30K but instead we got an honest opinion and a great deal on repairs and new gutters. Call Saber, don't delay. He tells it like it is and is willing to put his family name on the integrity of his business. read more

Updating my review - Ryan got back to me as soon as he found out about the issue. He came the very next day, did a visual inspection from the outside, went up on the roof and inspected, and then went up in the attic space to see if he could find a leak. It had stopped raining so he wasn't able to see anything. He then scheduled a return visit during the next storm so he could re-assess. He thoroughly re-visited the attic space, took a full video and showed me that what another contractor had thought was water discoloration was really just natural differences in the wood color. No roof leak- yayy! And triple thanks to Ryan for being so responsive and being completely nice about having come out twice for a leak that was non-existent. I'm super happy (again) and can highly recommend them. read more

Saber Roofing has always been quick to respond for the many leaks that have kept popping up, especially during the storms we have had the past few years. Finally we reached the point where we decided to replace the entire roof, as much as we gagged at the idea. We have been stuck at home when there were storms because it always leaked somewhere new and we would need to set up buckets if we could - that's no way to live. We knew we were going with Saber because they have done such excellent work for us in the past - so we made our choices, went on their waiting list and finally, after one bad storm this last season in fall of 2024, they were able to replace the roof. They did an amazing job. They were there every day, cleaned up every evening, worked non-stop to get that roof up before the next big storm that was forecast, got it done in the nick of time - and for the first time in many, many years we have not had a leak in our roof. They discovered most of the prior roof had been installed without any tar-paper under the tiles and there were holes in the plywood that goes under the roof tiles that were almost 8" around, for the roof rats and whatever else to get into out attic. The old roof was horrific. The replaced so much wood, put on new, good tar-paper (or whatever it is called) ...... and did their thing. We are ecstatic. When they were done, I asked Juan when we should have the roof checked next and he told me, with a wink and a smile, "25 years". I will miss Ryan and his crew - they are amazing. read more

Ryan is super personable and extremely knowledgeable. I appreciate his attention to detail. When I reached out to his company over Yelp, I wrote a blurb about what our concerns were. Ryan showed up fully prepped and I did not have to repeat myself which was refreshing. He jumped right in to explain the condition of our roof and gave us his expert opinions and suggestions. Throughout his time inspecting our roof, he also took a lot of pictures and used them to back up his claims. It was super easy to understand at that point and this presentation made us feel extremely at ease. Where appropriate, he always recommended ways to not do something and save money. We appreciated his honesty even if it meant potentially less business or things to do. As for scheduling - the initial appointment was very easy to schedule; the office assistant was kind and got us in as soon as possible. The timeline for fixes is a longer wait but Ryan made sure to set these expectations with us. They are extremely popular and good at their jobs, judging by the way he conducted the assessment, so I'm not even surprised. We are excited to have saber roofing back to do the fixes and will continue to use their services for whatever roof/gutter needs we have down the road. read more

I had a great experience with Saber replacing my wood shingle roof + a flat portion. Juan, who provided my initial quote and oversaw the day-to-day work, was transparent, detail-oriented, and took time to explain the what, why, and how to me. The crew were friendly, knowledgeable, and thorough - they worked quickly and left the work site clean each day. Saber used quality materials and did the work the right way. I would 100% recommend working with Saber and love our new roof! read more

Saber Roofing did an incredible job for us installing a CeDUR brand (synthetic wood shake) roof. Saber is one of the few roofers who have significant experience installing this material. They gave us several addresses to see their work with CeDUR - all looked amazing and we could not be happier with our new roof. Their craftsmanship, professionalism, communication and customer oriented approach make them a true white glove business. Every day Saber would tell us what to expect, would answer any questions we had and then follow-up to ensure everything was done to our satisfaction. These are all reasons (and more) why this company gets such stellar reviews. We highly recommend Saber!! read more

Saber Roofing replaced an old and defective skylight, re-roofed areas that were de-roofed for termite extermination, and examined the roof on my home and garage for needed repairs. They lifted up wisteria branches to examine the roof underneath them, and assessed every area. Jake worked to schedule the repairs in a timely manner. Meticulous clean up too. I highly recommend Saber Roofing read more

We were very satisfied with the work done by Saber Roofing from the beginning to the completion of replacing two skylights. They returned my call promptly, made an appointment for an estimate, and once we agreed to the quote they ordered the skylights and installed them when they arrived. The job was completed in a timely professional manner. I would highly recommend Saber Roofing! read more

I've had a great experience with Saber Roofing and would work with them again without hesitation. Some notes from my experience with them: - they have a lot of work, so we had to wait a bit longer for them to come inspect our roof, but it was well worth it. Their inspection was the most thorough and they quickly identified the parts that needed work (or not!). I had 2 other companies come see my roof, and you clearly see the difference... - Between the actual re-roofing date and the moment we contracted with them we had a few months of winter, so they put in place some protection for the parts of our roof that already had issues and gave us a good price for that. - They were very flexible with the actual date for the re-roof, they were able to accommodate us when we asked to postpone the work for a month to let our baby go through his 4 month sleep regression. - On the job they were very professional, they gave us updates every day with photos and kept us in the loop for any decision to make. We are very happy with our new roof. - They took care of the permitting, they coordinated with the solar panels company to do removal / re-installation of the panels, etc, etc... Really great experience, worth the wait if they are booked up! read more
