We recently had the underlayment replaced on our tile roof, and this was honestly one of the best experiences we've ever had working with a contractor. Chris, the owner, was straightforward, professional, and very hands-on throughout the entire project. What impressed me most was that he worked right alongside his crew every day and appeared to work just as hard as anyone on the team. The crew consistently arrived just before 7:00 AM, but never started work early out of consideration for us and our neighbors. They were dependable, communicative, and showed up exactly when they said they would. Another thing that really stood out was how clean and organized they kept the job site. At the end of each day, they thoroughly cleaned the area around our home, swept the sidewalks, and carefully searched for nails and debris. Chris was also very accurate and honest with his estimates. He explained upfront that any damaged wood replacement would be additional because it's impossible to know the extent of hidden damage ahead of time. In our case, there was a significant amount of dry rot and insect damage, but all of the extra woodwork still came in well within the estimated range he had provided. The project was also completed about a day earlier than expected. As an added touch, Chris even offered to paint the fascia for us if I supplied the matching paint. Overall, this was an outstanding experience from start to finish. We've worked with many contractors over the years, and this company ranks among the very best. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing roofing work done. read more

I had an outstanding experience with WeatherMaster Roofing! Chris and his team were absolutely awesome. They offered fair pricing and completed the repairs exactly as promised. I really appreciate their attention to detail and the upfront pricing. Highly recommend them for any roofing needs! read more

I am highly recommending Chris Wilder, Owner, of WEATHERMASTER Roofing Services. He and his crew have done an excellent job of installing a new "cool roof", fascia boards, and replaced damaged wood. Chris has completed the job in the time-frame he originally proposed. Chris is very knowledgeable, and he and his crew are very courteous. AND, everyday they clean up any debris around the house caused from their work. On a scale of 1 to 10, I give them a 12! read more

Really happy with the job Chris and his crew did with our new roof. I made it a point to get a couple quotes, and they were competitive with all of them. What set Chris apart was he's not only the owner of the company, but he's also the lead sled dog of the work crew. He was on the job site every day working, and was always available for questions and updates. I've already received several comments on how great our new roof looks. Highly recommend Weathermasters! read more

If I could give 100 stars, I would! Out of the four roofing companies we spoke to, Chris was the only one who truly understood our vision--and he executed it beautifully. From the initial estimate to the final touches, I was thoroughly impressed. Chris is incredibly knowledgeable about both structural work and roofing materials. He restructured our pergola and added a roof, transforming it into a shaded space we can now actually enjoy. We're beyond thankful to Chris and his team for their outstanding work. He was punctual, professional, detail-oriented, and fast. We would absolutely hire him again. If you're looking for an honest, skilled roofer--Chris is your guy! read more

First things first, while our estimate from Weathermaster was more than we thought our roofing project would cost, it was $8K less than our second estimate! We didn't get more estimates so I cannot fully say that Weathermaster is the lowest priced, but you get what you pay for and we were thoroughly impressed with the level of education and attention to detail Chris the owner had in his estimate. The other estimator who came out to give us a bid (from a different company) admitted he was not a roofer himself so he couldn't answer specific questions at the time of the bid regarding the scope of the job. Also they didn't offer the synthetic underlayment (which provides better protection). Chris, however, was very knowledgeable, informative and thorough. Prior to signing our contract, we had some questions and Heather in the office and Chris were quick to respond. Once we signed our contract, they were also really communicative regarding scheduling. Rain in the forecast pushed out our job but Chris proactively emailed us each time to let us know, and they scheduled us as soon as there was a window of time they could start. We particularly appreciated Chris's transparency regarding the lag he was experiencing with scheduling the permits/inspections with the City. And an extra nice touch was that he let us know each day when they were leaving, so we could return home. When work started, Chris and his crew arrived promptly each day, worked quickly and efficiently and made sure our roof was weatherproof before we were due for more rain. The crew replaced wood where needed, and we were especially impressed with the level of integrity and thoroughness with which Chris worked; he pointed out parts of our roof/house where other previous contractors had done a sub-par job (cut corners) and made repairs where needed to make sure everything was done right. This is huge because plenty of people could/might just do what's faster/easier/cheaper; people doing things right is really honorable and refreshing but unfortunately, it's not as common these days. We did have to clean up some nails out of our rain gutter and gather some leftover material from the roof (icing on the cake if the crew had tidied everything up to really really finish the job!) but all in all we were still very impressed. Chris even came out to fix one board of fascia that hadn't been re-installed in alignment with the other fascia when we asked, which isn't a surprise by any means, but just attests to the level of service and quality of company this is. (We've had previous contractors who had done a great job but then really left us high and dry at the end). If you're looking for a communicative, quality roofing company, Chris at Weathermaster is your guy! We will probably not look to anyone else should we need a repair or another roofing job in the future! read more

Whether you need a new roof or any type of roof repairs, Chris Wilder of Weathermaster Roofing Services Inc. is your answer. My son and I are both long-time customers, and Chris has worked on my roof twice. Chris had already completed a new roof on my son's house when I was ready to replace my own roof in 2015. Based on my son's enthusiastic recommendation, I called Chris for a third quote. The quotes were close in price, but Chris showed far more interest and took much more time to address all my questions and concerns than the other two roofing contractors had. Chris is very personable and professional, extremely knowledgeable, courteous, honest, and straightforward. I hired him to replace my roof in 2015 and am still completely satisfied. This summer I needed fascia board repairs, so of course I contacted Chris and was happy to get on his schedule this week. He did the beautiful quality job I know to expect from him. My house looks brand new. Chris is reliably prompt and a very good communicator. His workmanship is excellent, his price is more than fair for the quality he provides, and his crew's cleanup after the job's end is impressive. Chris is truly a pleasure to work with. As a returning customer, I recommend him most highly. It is rare to find a craftsman of his caliber today. If you're considering work on your roof, call Weathermaster Roofing Services Inc. and talk with Chris. He will answer any roofing questions you may have. After that, hire him! You will be glad you did. read more

We had an excellent experience working with Weathermaster Roofing Services. From start to finish, Chris and his team were incredibly punctual, showing up exactly when promised each day, day after day until the project was finished -- non of this hoping from job to job just to catch the next one with empty promises and no shows while you are stuck with a mess around your house - something that's rare and truly appreciated when coordinating home projects. The team worked efficiently without cutting corners, and the entire project was completed on time and on budget. They even made sure to clean up every single day after full days work, so we can safely park in our driveway without worrying about mess or nails in our tires. What really set them apart was their clear communication throughout. Even before the project started we were consistently kept in the loop in regards to our preparations of the premises (we had several cars in the garage that we worried about paint damage, etc), progress, next steps, and any decisions that needed our input. This level of transparency made the process smooth and stress-free. Most importantly, they earned our trust. The workmanship was high-quality, and they never tried to upsell us on unnecessary services. Chris is a straight shooter and will tell you how it is and to the point, without BS. We always felt like the team had our best interests in mind. I would confidently recommend this family owned business to anyone looking for a reliable and professional roofing contractor. read more

Weathermasters exceeded all expectations. The quality of work was excellent and their pricing was the best of all the estimates I received. They went above and beyond to protect the pool from debris and cleaned all areas around my house when they finished each day. They started the project on time and finished a day earlier than promised. Chris communicated extremely well from the very first meeting through project completion. I highly recommend Weathermasters if you're looking to replace your roof. read more

Chris is very easy to work with and straightforward about what repairs are needed or not needed. They arranged for me to purchase my supplies directly from the distributor to lock in my price. They scheduled my start date and they were there on time and ready to work. They did superb work! I would highly recommend them! read more

I don't normally write reviews but my experience with Chris Wilder was so great I had to share. I had a leak in my porch roof and had gotten two quotes that were very expensive. A friend recommended Chris Wilder so I call and he came out and gave me a quote. His was friendly, his price was reasonable and not outrageous. We scheduled a date for the repair, he was prompt and did a great job. It rained a few day's later and I found we still had a leak. I called and he came back out as soon as he could and when he did a water test found the issue wasn't with the previous repair but the gutter was blocked and overflowing. He cleared out the gutter and didn't charge me anything extra. It's rare that you find a nice and profession person these days. I highly recommended Chris Wilder, Weathermaster Roofing Services! read more

Chris came out and gave us a price for our roof replacement several months ago. His price was around the average, we had gotten several estimates from other companies (some lower & some higher) but his knowledge of our area / roofing in general and upfront clarity of his license and insurance was the selling point for us. We had a hiccup with getting a HELOC so the process was put on hold for a couple months, when it came time to finally get the ball rolling Chris honored his original price and informed us he was scheduled out a ways but as long as we got done before the rain season was fine with us. Throughout the whole roof removal and reinstall Chris answered every petty question we happen to have and him and his crew were very quick but thorough. We wanted to install solar attic vents instead of the normal wind turbine (whirly birds) that we bought separately and he installed them plus cut in an extra one for no additional cost. Long story short, we were very pleased with Chris and his company and would highly recommend. read more

I called Weathermaster Roofing Services for a roof inspection and regular maintenance on my roof. They were professional and very efficient. Chris, the owner, was very helpful and explained in detail, the condition of my roof and the repair maintenance it needed. Their price was very reasonable. If you're looking for an honest and professional roofing company, look no further than Weathermaster Roofing Services. read more

Chris and his team did an amazing and excellent job on our roof. If I can give him 10 stars, I definitely would. He was honest, punctual, straight forward, organized and always answered my questions. His price was fair and he really knows a lot about roof. It's hard for me to trust people but I can definitely trust him and his work. He gave us a timeline and it was delivered. He was on time and gave us update on what is happening next. I would highly recommend them! read more

I recently had my roof replaced by Weathermaster roofing and I'm very happy with the result! Chris was great to deal with. Excellent communication, on time for every meeting, professional quote and estimate process with great advice on my particular roofing needs. The work was done on time, the cleanup was great, and the quality of the work looks great as well. A true professional job and I've got no complaints, I'm glad that I chose Weathermaster to replace the roof on my most important investment.... my home. Thanks again Chris! read more

If you want your roof serviced correctly, Chris Wilder & Co are who to contact. Strong work ethic, attention to detail, responsive -- they're the best. And there's good reason for all the 5-star reviews. Chris responded to me same day, arrived onsite to evaluate my issue, and scheduled a crew next day to fix leaks left from a very poor roofing co. that ignored calls for help. Highly recommend read more

We knew we had a leak near our chimney which was going into the attic, but our roof is extremely steep and we couldn't see what exactly was going on and we knew we needed an expert to help us. Chris called me back within minutes, came out to inspect the roof that very afternoon, and advised us how he could help repair the leak. He was super easy to work with, knowledgeable, affordable, and most important honest! We would not hesitate to recommend him and his company and would call him again without hesitation should the need arise in the future. read more

I had an excellent experience working with Weathermaster Roofing Services. Chris showed up per the schedule and conducted my inspection and routine maintenance quickly and efficiently. Chris was extremely professional and friendly. I recommend Weathermaster to anyone and I will certainly keep the card handy just in case I need repairs in the future. Top notch coming from a Vet. read more

Our house weirdly had one section of fascia missing along the back - and we needed fascia installed so that a future gutter install will have something secure to attach to. We reached out to Weathermaster, unsure if they would take a small job like ours, and luckily they did! We gave Chris the measurements from our gutter installer, and he and his crew came out a few weeks later. They brought 2 20-foot-long preprimed fascia boards to install. My husband really appreciated how Chris and his team carefully measured and cut each rafter tail in a straight line so they would fit snugly against the ne fascia boards. The new fascia looks so straight and clean - like it was always there! We also have an unconventional roof, and we really appreciated Chris and his team's extra care in making sure they installed the fascia without risking any damage to our roof. We had a great experience with Weathermaster Roofing and will happily reach out to them for future roofing jobs! read more

Craig did a nice repair job on a leaky roof for a reasonable price. He's easy to work with and gives you an honest opinion of the state of your roof. I'll certainly give him a call when time comes for a new roof. read more

Chris and his team did a great job on our new roof! They were here everyday and got the job done. They left the area clean. Great communication as to what they were working on and what still needed to be done. Highly recommend Weathermaster Roofing! read more

Chris at Weathermaster is the best service person I have ever dealt with! He is knowledgeable, friendly, well educated in his craft, and fair in his transactions. He and his team have a strong work ethic, arrive punctually, and readily answer questions along the way. Communication via text or email throughout the process was strong. We replaced the entire roof of our house a few years ago with Weathermaster, called them again to replace a skylight, and recently used them to replace the roof above the garage where the solar panels are placed. The price quoted was reasonable and we knew we could trust the process and the product. I would highly recommend using this company. We have referred them to other people and they all have the same high praise. read more

Excellent experience with Weathermaster from start to finish on replacing the roof of our detached garage. Chris came out to inspect our existing roof, which had been leaking for a while. He recommended a replacement with TPO, which we were not familiar with but he answered all of our questions including the benefits compared to our existing torch down style (including a much cheaper price compared to a different bid to replace it with another torch down system). Chris and his team were able to complete the project in a single day, and very soon after we signed his proposal. Chris was incredibly friendly, professional and knowledgeable throughout the whole experience. We are very happy with the new roof, and haven't had any leaks for several months even with a few heavy storms. Thank you Chris and crew! read more

Very nice and polite, as well as professional. They came in several vehicles, climbed up and tidied up the roof and did an inspection, fixed the loose tiles, replaced a broken skylight, and all was really professionally done. I have nothing but good things to say. They also know the guy who had my house built, who owned a large roofing company many years ago. All in all, I highly recommend Weathermaster Roofing! read more

Do you know those rare times when you are looking for a service and the 1st one you talk with leaves you with a really high comfort level so you don't feel the need to interview anyone else for the project? That's what I got when Chris stopped by to see what my needs were. From the start it was obvious this guy is genuine, is a hands on leader of his team and my gut told me he was going to do a great job. My gut was right! They were outstanding. You can tell he is passionate about his profession and has so much experience doing things the right way and even fixing other people's mistakes. His knowledge and leadership resulted in the outstanding completion of our reroofing effort. He and his team fixed past roofing mistakes, improved on old solutions that others probably thought were good enough and basically did things the way he would for a very picky, close family member. When I asked if he knew of a good insulation company that would work well on his schedule to improve our attic, he said he insulates too. When he saw some dry rot on the facia boards, he said he also did carpentry. The team was able to mitigate risks to the project schedule because all portions were done by Chris and his team. I'm extremely happy with the skills, professionalism and workmanship that the Weathermaster team brought to my home. read more

My wife and I were late into a Refi and the bank decided that we needed to get our roof inspected. We scrambled to find a roofer and got lucky when we called Chris. He came out on a Saturday to get our roof inspected so we could move on with our Refi and hit the closing deadline. The main reason for the Refi was to have some extra money to get our roof replaced and a few other projects. It was clear that Chris was a master and we really appreciated that he wasn't trying to sell us in any way, just the facts from someone with experience, so refreshing. Once the Refi was complete, he started replacing our roof within weeks. Not only did Chris give us a reasonable estimate to replace our roof, he hit that estimate when the job was complete. This was a roof that was well overdue and we also wanted 3 skylights removed, so I was thinking we would run into some unforeseen issues. Nope, the master called it from the beginning. Done and done. I was ready for some stressful days having to work from home while my roof was being replaced but Chris and crew were super respectful and kept a clean, organized work place. Noisy, but not one reason to stress with all that was going on, we were clearly in good hands. read more

I got my roof done by Chris and his team about a year ago. They did an excellent job on roof works. They cleaned up everything at the end, so it looked nice and clean. They also connected me with gutter installers so I could get them done all together. read more

Honestly, if I could put more stars I would. We had solar panels installed by a company that went out of business. A leak developed from our roof and Chris came out to take a look at it. The recommendation at the time was to work with the solar company to get it fixed. After quite some time, right before they were to inspect, they sold the lease to a new company. Long story short we were on our own. Chris came back out with a solar partner and fixed the leak. We got financing set up and a few months later we did the entire roof. It looks great and we are so happy. Quick project, we were done in a week. Solar panels back on, installed correctly, and we now have piece of mind that the roof works correctly. Chris and his team are great to work with and do great work. Thank you!!! read more

The owner of this business, Chris, was very professional from start to finish. He was responsive, reliable and reasonably priced. We're installing solar and learned that we needed a new roof. Chris came out and gave us the option of only reroofing the area where the panels would be installed as the rest of the roof had another 5 years of wear and tear remaining. His crew did a great job. They were efficient and left the job site clean. Overall, a great experience working with this company- highly recommend. read more

We could not be more happy with Chris and his team. He is very knowledgeable, kind and easy to talk to. He definitely knows what he is doing . We were happy with with our quote and even more happy with our new beautiful roof! Great communication and the little details are always a huge thing with me. They did a wonderful job! They Showed up on the right date and time and everything was so smooth and easy from the first day to the last. Thank you so much Chris!!! Anyone looking to do your roof, I highly highly recommend weathermaster !!! You are in great hands!!! We love our new roof!!!! read more

Chris Wilder and his Weathermaster team replaced my roof this summer and did a fantastic job. Chris is the best contractor I have ever worked with. From the initial contact to completion of the project, Chris always responded promptly to my many questions. The estimate was clear and inclusive - no surprises. Care was taken to protect my outdoor furniture and plants, and my property was cleaned up after every work day. The work was started and completed on time. As other reviewers have noted, Chris Wilder is honest, fair and a really nice man. I highly recommend Weathermaster Roofing. read more

Wow! It can be difficult to find an honest business, especially in this tough climate. But Chris responded to my request right away and was up front: he said he had a backlog and it looked like my repairs needed to be done immediately so I should find someone else. I appreciate his willingness to put my priority above his profits. I look forward to getting a chance to work with Weathermaster Roofing in the future. Keep up the great work! read more

Chris and Weathermaster Roofing did an amazing job on our flat roof on our addition. We requested a quote from yelp, along with a few other roofers, and they were very professional, efficient, and great pricing compared to the competitors from the get go. Chris also allowed us the option of paying for the supplies on our credit card, so we can get the points for it- added bonus! They were done with project in 3 days and very professional and communicative throughout the entire process. Chris is very down to earth and trustworthy. I definitely recommend his business for your roofing needs. You will not be disappointed, and the reviews speak for themselves! I will recommend him to all of my friends. Thanks Chris and team for a job well done! 5 stars! read more

The coordination process was very easy and professional. The team arrived on time daily and were very friendly and kept me up to date during the entire process. Each day the team cleaned up before they left my house and ensured any materials were stored out of the way. The roof came out great and I would highly recommend them! read more

Chris Wilder did a great job on our single family flat roof. Three years later, during the January 2022 storms, we had a leak two stories below that I thought might be coming from the roof. Chris replied to my email within hours and made an appointment to come the next morning. He tested and found that the leak wasn't coming from the roof. To my grateful surprise, he spent another hour testing the other places the water could be entering. When he found an opening around an outlet on a deck that could be leaking into the wall and the floor below, he made a special trip, bought waterproof caulking to fix it, and came back to make that repair, unrelated to the roofing. So helpful and beyond the call of a contract, to an unhandy homeowner! read more

After researching and consulting several roofing companies with bids we chose Christopher and his team at Weathermaster nine years ago for a new TPO roof as part of a solar PV installation. His team was prompt, friendly, explained everything and did an expert job and kept everything clean on and around our historic house for a great price. Nine years later with the storm of epic proportions bearing down on San Diego we noticed a bit of discoloration on a hallway ceiling and I emailed Chris for him to come out to check out at his convenience, our first correspondence in nine years. He answered my email within 10 minutes and was out on the roof to assess and repair the solar rack connection point in the roof that had started to fail within 45 minutes - ON A SUNDAY! - note: it was not Weathermaster's direct fault but the PV installers. He fixed the small leak the day before we got three inches of rain in three hours and all elements of the roof on our 100 y.o. house held up perfectly. I wholeheartedly recommend Chris and the team at Weathermaster Roofing without hesitation. You will not find a more professional and honest company. read more

Chris and the whole team at Weathermaster Roofing were very helpful and great through the whole process. They were very communicative and kept us informed through the new roof process. There are a lot of Roofing companies out there to choose from, but we're glad we chose WeatherMaster. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a new roof, get a quote from them and I'm sure you'll love them too. Thanks again, we love our new roof. read more

We had our new roof installed, and It was a pleasant experience! Weathermaster Roofing Services was easy to work with, and we are very happy with the final result. Our impressions: Customer Service: They answered the phone at the time of my initial call, scheduled a consultation within a few days, quickly emailed a detailed proposal, and were responsive to our follow up questions. Pricing: We needed roofing in preparation for solar installation. The solar companies we spoke to made recommendations for roofers, or did their own roofing. Weathermaster was not affiliated with the solar company, and I called them based on their good reviews on multiple platforms. They were our 3rd quote. Their pricing was in the middle, with a good warranty, and quality materials. Professionalism: What nudged me to write a recommendation were the frequent positive comments from our neighbors, who'd observed the 3 day process unfold. Some made comparisons based on their own roofing experiences, and others commented based on their observations of the work being done. Their positive feedback matched our own impressions. The crew was well prepared, organized, efficient, and paid attention to detail. They were professional, communicative, arrived on time each day, and completed the project as projected. They left the yard very clean at the end of each day. They are also licensed and insured. Quality: Time will tell, but we like the way it looks. I asked the solar installer about his impression, and he said it was quality work, and he's seen a lot of roofs. read more

Weathermaster just reroofed our house and they did an awesome job! Chris was easy to communicate with from initial phone inquiry all the way through the end of the project. Price was great and they consistently showed up when they said they would. Everyone was super nice and I really appreciate the care they took around the house (even little things like parking their truck so I could still close the gate for the dog without me even having to ask). Definitely recommend Chris and Weathermaster! read more
