2/16/25 We reached out to Golden State Roofing Pros because of a roof leak. When scheduling the appointment we let them know we had tenants and that this was a rental, the tenants would be there to deal with the appointment. We scheduled an appointment for Sunday February 15, between 10 and 12 pm. No one showed up, nor did we receive a call to reschedule or inform us that they may be late. We called and after an hour of back-and-forth were able to reschedule the appointment for Monday, February 16, between 9 and 11 AM. Again, no one showed up, nor did we receive a phone call stating they weren’t going to make it or they were running late. We again reached out to them and spent about two hours on the phone trying to work things out. We were told a manager was going to call us and we waited an hour. That phone call never came. We again called and at this point we were told they could not do the work unless we as the owners were present. This is something they should have told us when we made the initial appointment, we had made everything about the situation very clear to them. We made the decision to go with another company, At this point we felt very uncomfortable with the thought of using Golden State Roofing Pros. Communication was terrible, follow through was nonexistent, customer service was absolutely atrocious. Our tenants waited around all day Sunday for not, and took Monday off for the rescheduled appointment that never happened, missing a full day of work. All of that coupled with the fact that they advertise to be a local company in our city, when in fact when you call in the call is answered by a call center that dispatches roofers from around the state. There were too many red flags, I could not in good conscience leave this situation without a review, and would not recommend this company.

I recently had a problem that I thought was a roof leak near my chimney in Poway. I called a local roofing and exterior service and spoke with Eddie, who quickly set up an appointment with Chris. Chris arrived with a ladder and a drone, did a careful roof inspection, and clearly explained that the source of the issue was related to the chimney area rather than the roofing system itself. He also shared attic video and drone footage, which made it much easier to understand what was going on and what steps should come next. I was very impressed with the professional customer service, strong roofing knowledge, and honest assessment. It is great to know I have a reliable roofer to call in Poway for any future roof, flashing, chimney, or exterior repair needs.

I was getting a few estimates from different roofers for damage caused by a poorly installed super gutter. The fascia around the gutter had major damage, and that section of the roof needed a careful inspection along with fascia replacement. I also needed the roofing contractor to coordinate smoothly with the company handling the new super gutter installation. Jonathan really stood out. He arrived on time, was friendly, professional, and kept the roofing work within budget. He worked well with the other contractor, communicated clearly throughout the project, and showed real care for the condition of the roof, fascia, and gutter area. The whole repair process felt organized and stress-free, and the finished work gave me confidence that the roofline and drainage system were properly addressed. I would definitely recommend this roofing company.

When a recent storm caused a roof leak at our rental property, we were referred to Golden State Roofing Pros. I had already contacted a few other roofing companies, but Chris was by far the most professional and responsive. While others would not come out during the rain, he and a crew member arrived quickly to inspect the roof, check the source of the leak, and help protect the property right away. That fast response gave me peace of mind and also reassured our tenants. Chris kept in touch, explained the roofing issue in simple terms, and answered every question clearly. Once the weather improved, the roof repair was completed later that same week. The work was handled efficiently, the pricing was fair and easy to understand, and the whole process felt honest and stress-free. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing roof repair or emergency roofing service.

Jonathan and an assistant from Golden State Roofing Pros did a very good job replacing the rotted section of a fascia board, wrapping it, realigning the gutter connected to it, adding extra flashing, and replacing several wind-damaged shingles. At first, one part of the shingle work was missed, but after I mentioned it was included in the signed agreement, Jonathan took care of it right away and finished everything to my full satisfaction. The repair looks solid, the gutter lines up well, and the added flashing gave me more confidence that the roof edge is better protected. In Poway, where sun and wind can be tough on roofing materials, it was great to have the work completed carefully and professionally. I also appreciated the thoughtful follow-up gift of delicious cookies. I have already recommended them to two neighbors who asked for a roofer recommendation.

Chris and his crew were professional, friendly, and did excellent roofing work. They kept the property very clean, and the yard was spotless when the roof job was done. I really appreciated that they delivered the shingles and roofing materials on the same day they started, instead of leaving supplies stacked in the driveway ahead of time. That showed real care, good planning, and respect for our home. The whole process was smooth, organized, and stress-free. It was clear the crew knew their trade and took pride in the quality of the roof installation. I would highly recommend them for roofing work in Poway.

After a storm left several shingle sections missing and caused damage across the roof, I called a local roofing team after my adjuster inspected everything. They quickly secured the problem areas, then worked closely with my insurance company and adjuster to help move the full roof replacement forward. Once I chose the shingle color, they scheduled the installation for a later day. The roofing crew showed up on time, stayed organized, and finished the project the same day. They paid attention to detail, protected my landscaping, and did a thorough cleanup when the job was done. The whole process was smooth, professional, and easy from start to finish. I’m very happy with the new roof and how well they handled both the repair and replacement work.

Very friendly and quick to handle everything our roof and exterior needed. They replaced fascia board, repaired and painted several trim areas, and installed shingles on the house, shop, and a small outbuilding. They wrapped up the project by putting on new gutters for the house and shop, which really helped with drainage during hot california weather. The crews were polite, on time, and easy to work with. each crew cleaned up well after finishing their part of the job, and the property stayed organized throughout the roofing work. The office staff and estimators kept everything on track and within budget, and they clearly knew roofing, gutters, and exterior repairs. i also liked that the dumpster and portable toilet were arranged ahead of time, which made the whole project run smoother. great experience working with the full team.

i first hired them for gutter cleaning because my roof is steep and not safe to handle on my own. while they were there, the crew cleaned the gutters thoroughly and replaced one clogged gutter section that had been sending water onto my porch roof and causing damage. they also took time to inspect the roofing system more closely and pointed out storm-related wear from wind and roof debris that i had not noticed. after i contacted my insurance company, their findings were confirmed, and i moved forward with a full roof replacement. the whole process was smooth from start to finish. the crew stayed on schedule, communicated clearly, and completed the roofing work with care. they also found and corrected a few hidden code-related issues from the original build, which gave me extra peace of mind about the safety and quality of the roof. jonathan and the team were professional, helpful, and easy to work with throughout the project. i would gladly recommend them to anyone needing gutter service, roof repair, or a full roof replacement.

My insurance agent pointed me to this roofing company because they had heard good things about their roof replacement work. I am very glad I took that advice. From the first inspection to the final cleanup, the whole roofing process was handled in a professional and helpful way. My project manager, Chris, was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. He spent plenty of time going over roofing options, shingle colors, materials, ventilation, warranties, and the full scope of the job. Bringing sample materials to my home made it much easier to picture how the new roof would look and what choice would fit best. He answered all of my questions in simple terms, explained the roofing process and city permit and inspection steps clearly, and always took the time to return my calls and emails. He made sure I felt comfortable with every part of the project. I also appreciated the support during the approval process with my homeowners association. I wanted a small shingle color change, and the review took much longer than expected. Chris stayed involved the whole time, helped answer their questions, and even assisted during conversations with a board member so everything could keep moving forward. That extra support really showed their commitment to customer service and to getting the reroof done the right way. Another thing that stood out was the attention from the leadership team. It meant a lot that the owner personally came by my home to check on the progress and the quality of the roofing work. That kind of hands-on care is not something you see from every roofer. The roofing crew was polite, hardworking, on time, and clearly experienced. They protected my landscaping with tarps, worked carefully in the warm weather, and kept the job site organized throughout the project. The cleanup was excellent, and when the work was finished, my property looked great. My new roof looks beautiful, and I am completely satisfied with the workmanship, communication, and overall experienc

i want to thank axel and his whole crew for making my roof replacement so easy and stress-free. as a single parent, i was pretty anxious about getting such a big project done and finding a roofer i could really trust. right from the start, axel made me feel comfortable and confident i was in the right hands. he took extra time to answer all my questions, even going over things several times so i really understood, especially when it came to the insurance details. i also spoke with his wife a couple of times, and she was just as helpful and patient. when the shingles were delivered, axel called and even stopped by to make sure everything looked good and to check if i had any other questions. he explained step by step what his team would be doing, from the first day to the final clean up, and introduced me to chris, who was the on-site go-to person if i needed anything while the work was happening. the entire crew was professional, friendly, and kept my yard clean every day. the whole process was smooth, and i'm very happy with my new roof. if you need a trustworthy roofer who really cares, i definitely recommend this company!

When I noticed my roof was leaking, I reached out to a local roofing company and was impressed by how quickly they responded. Jonathan took the time to answer all my questions and gave helpful advice while I figured out what to do next. Their crew arrived fast, got right to work, and did a solid job repairing my roof. The team was friendly and worked well together, even helping me out with a section of the roof I was handling myself. They kept the area tidy and cleaned up everything before leaving. After the work was done, I spotted a small issue with a unique part of my roof, but they came back and fixed it right away. Overall, I had a great experience and highly recommend their roofing services.
