Choosing Local Sacramento Roof Contractor Tips
Choosing a local Sacramento roof company can be confusing. With plenty of companies out for competition, choosing which roofer becomes a task in itself. This guide does not promise to provide a sure fire way to landing the right roofing contractor. However, this list provides everything you need to get started.

Company Name – When choosing a contractor, determine the names of the roofing companies you are considering. To make the job easier, stick with familiar names and names which you’ve heard from referrals. Yancey Home Improvements CSLB 714569 was issued in 1995. The Yancey family has been around town for a long time and has a long history of roofing and home improvements.
Company Address – An established Sacramento roofing company should have a permanent address. This should be a real office and the center of the company’s operations. We’ve been in the same building on Alpine Ave for may years.
License – A roofer should at least have the B-General Building Contractor and C-39 Roofing licenses issued by the city of Sacramento. Check out the link to our CSLB roofing contractor license below.
BBB – The Better Business Bureau provides quality feedback and information about businesses across various industries. Make sure your roofer is duly accredited by the BBB. We have provided the link to our profile below.
Reviews – Look to other sources for reviews. Ask your neighbors and friends for referrals and recommendations. A company is more likely to be referred if it provides quality work. You can find some links to our reviews here and you’ll find us listed on a vast number of sources.
Sacramento Roof Credentials
We are certified with both GAF and Owens Corning, the two world leaders in roofing technologies.TIP: Never overlook a company’s insurance coverage. This should be tackled in your meeting with your roofer. Surprising as it is, a roofer is required by law to insure all roofing projects are insured for at least 1 million dollars. We are very upfront and have PDF copies of our insurance certificates right here on our website.
It pays to do the legwork before choosing a roofing company. Land a reliable roofing firm and you’ll never have to look for another one again in years.

“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.”
