Roof Replacement in San Diego (Rancho Bernardo) on Selva Drive
We recently completed a full asphalt shingle roof replacement in San Diego on Selva Drive. If you’re researching roofing options in San Diego, this project highlights a complete professional roof replacement in San Diego. We offer a free roof estimate and high-quality options like Dibiten torchdown for flat sections.
Project Overview
- Location: Selva Drive, San Diego (Rancho Bernardo)
Why Replace vs. Repair
- Long-term value: Patching would have been temporary — a full roof replacement restores the roof’s integrity, improves curb appeal, and offers long-term warranties.
- Safety and integrity: Replacement allowed us to remove and replace rotted sheathing, fascia, shiplap, and quite a few rafter tails. We installed two layers of new underlayment, complete with new flashing around the perimeter. New pipe flashings were installed. Attic vents were also replaced.
- Cost predictability: The free roof estimate compared repair vs. replacement costs; replacement proved the better investment for performance and resale value.
Materials & Work Performed
- Asphalt shingles: High-quality architectural shingles installed with manufacturer-compliant nailing patterns and starter courses.
- Underlayment: Hi quality synthetic underlayment across the roof deck for superior leak protection.
- Flashing & penetrations: New metal flashing at chimneys, skylights, and around the perimeter; pipe flashings and vents replaced. Some new attic vents were added.
- Dibiten torchdown: Flat roof areas and low-slope transitions were finished with a 2-ply Dibiten torchdown roof system for a durable, waterproof membrane.
- Cleanup & warranty: Job-site cleanup included magnetic sweep. Work completed with a workmanship warranty and manufacturer shingle warranty.
Timeline & Coordination
- Timeline: Inspection and estimate (free roof inspection/free roof estimate) → scheduling → 4–5 day replacement due to size and amount of wood repairs.
- Coordination: We coordinated inspections, material deliveries, and final walk-through with the homeowner to ensure satisfaction.
Results & Benefits
- Leak elimination and restored structural integrity.
- Enhanced energy performance and ventilation.
- Improved curb appeal and increased property value.
- Very Durable flat-roof protection where 2 plies of Dibiten torchdown was used.
