    Recent Roof Repair: A Novato Home Saved

    We don't just talk a good game—we show our work. Here's a real roof repair we completed last year in Novato's Ignacio neighborhood.

    In June 2024, we got a call from a homeowner on Simmons Lane in Novato's Ignacio area. A big oak branch had come down during a windstorm, punching a hole through their Malarkey Legacy shingle roof and damaging the decking underneath. Water was already seeping into their attic. We arrived the same day to tarp the roof and stop further water damage. Our crew removed the damaged shingles and plywood, then installed new 5/8" OSB decking and matched the existing Malarkey Legacy shingles in Weathered Wood. We also added a new ice and water shield underlayment for extra protection. The whole repair took two days, and the homeowner's insurance covered most of the cost. We helped them file the claim, too. They're now a 4.9 Google reviewer—and they referred us to two neighbors on the same street.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Roof Repair

    We’ve been fixing roofs in Novato and the North Bay for 19 years, so we’ve heard just about every question. Here’s the straight talk on what to expect, how much it costs, and when to call us.

    How much does roof repair cost in Novato?

    Cost depends on the damage, materials, and roof size. A small leak fix might run a few hundred dollars, while a larger section replacement could be $1,000–$3,000. We give free, no-obligation estimates so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

    Can I DIY my roof repair?

    We don’t recommend it. Roofing is dangerous—falls account for a third of all construction deaths. Plus, a bad patch job can void your manufacturer warranty and lead to bigger leaks. We’re licensed (CA CSLB #1043871), insured, and bonded, so you’re covered.

    How long does a roof repair take?

    Most repairs take one to two days. A small leak patch might be done in a few hours. We’ll give you a timeline after inspecting the damage—no guesswork.

    Will my insurance cover roof repair?

    If the damage is from a storm, wind, or fallen tree, your homeowner’s policy usually covers it. We’re storm damage specialists and can help with the insurance claim process. Call us at (844) 640-4622 and we’ll walk you through it.

    What materials do you use for repairs?

    We match your existing roof using Malarkey, CertainTeed, GAF, Owens Corning, IKO, or Atlas shingles. That way the repair blends in and keeps your warranty intact.

    Do you offer a warranty on roof repairs?

    Yes. All our repairs come with a workmanship warranty. For full replacements, we back it with a 25-year workmanship warranty. We stand behind our work.

    What Our Customers Say

    4.7 stars · 225+ verified reviews

    North Bay Roofing Co. replaced our 22-year-old shingle roof in two days flat. The crew was respectful of our landscaping, cleaned up every nail, and the GAF system they installed looks incredible. The price was fair and they filed the permit without us having to chase it. Will absolutely call them again.

    ★★★★★
    After a winter storm tore off two sections of our flashing, North Bay Roofing Co. was on-site within 24 hours. They tarped the exposed decking that same afternoon, walked us through the insurance claim process, and had the permanent repair done by end of week. Honest estimates, no upsell pressure.

    ★★★★★
    I called for a pre-purchase inspection on a home in Petaluma. The inspector found two soft spots the listing agent hadn't mentioned, documented everything with photos, and gave me a written repair estimate I could use in negotiations. Saved me thousands.
