Is Your Sacramento Roofing Service Worth Your Trust?

The Yancey Family, Serving Sacramento Since 1888

At least that’s what most homeowners are told. While this claim holds true for some, it’s not always an accurate description for all Sacramento roofing contractors. It’s good to approach every new endeavor with caution, and the same applies for when you’re are choosing your first contractor.

Identify a Scammer

Spotting a shady contractor is easy if you know what to look for and ask the right questions. You may be dealing with a scammer if you spot the following signs:

Pushy Contractors – If a contractor seems to be in a hurry, or is trying to pressure you into agreeing to have your roof repaired, you may be dealing with a scammer. No matter what happens, do not pay any fees upfront.

Ridiculously low estimates – Bad contractors want you to sign up for a repair as soon as possible. Sometimes, to the point that they will provide estimates that are clearly way too inexpensive for any roofing project. You always want to look for reasonably-priced estimates.

License – Do not assume that anyone posing as a contractor is licensed by the Sacramento Building Department. Ask for a contractor’s license upfront. An expired license is just as bad. You put you and your property under all kinds of risk by hiring an unlicensed contractor.

Storm Chasers – Although this type of contractor seldom shows up in Sacramento, storm chasers can just be as tricky as other scammers. This type of contractors shows up after storms and go from door to door, offering emergency roof repairs, then leave town again when the work runs out.

“I need a total bathroom remodel, and everyone at Yancey has been a delight to work with. All my questions have been answered, the choices of materials were abundant, and Scott guided us expertly through the process one step at a time. I would highly recommend them!”

Laura Powell

“Yancey was awesome to work with. My estimator was Brian Speaks, and he made the entire experience simple and enjoyable for us. There was no high pressure sales, and Brian went out of his way to make sure we got exactly what we wanted and needed. His pricing was fair, and he helped us get financing right on the spot. If I would provide more than 5 stars, I would.”

Ryan Calderwood

“Tommy was very helpful in explaining the roofing process and itemizing the pricing. He was upfront and honest about policy and interpreting the contract for my mother and I. We are a house full of women and we are always worried about being taken advantage of price-wise but we were not treated that way. Thank you for the excellent service and stunning new roof!”

Caroline H

“I chose Yancey for my reroof because of their business longevity. They've run into every situation imaginable and Brian addressed these concerns in the contract. Being told in advance is an explanation, being told after the fact is an excuse. They gave no excuses. The team working was always on time and did exceptional quality work with dry rot repair. The roof looks great and I expect it to work well for years to come.”
