Eichler homes
Palo Alto has one of the largest collections of Eichler homes. Their flat and low-slope roofs are a specialist job: drainage, insulation and the exposed beams at the roof edges all matter. Old tar and gravel, spray foam or worn-out flat roofs are replaced with a modified bitumen system. Flat roofing →
Older homes and trees
Professorville and Old Palo Alto have older homes with complex roofs under a heavy tree canopy. Roof cleaning, moss removal and clear gutters matter as much as the roof itself. Roof maintenance →
