Roofing in Selma - Written Price, Workmanship Warranty

Fast, Reliable Roofing Across Selma

A roof replacement in Selma typically runs $8,000-$20,000 depending on square footage and material, while a targeted repair usually lands between $400 and $1,800. The flat, sun-blasted lots west of Highway 99 and the shaded streets near Brentlinger Park deal with very different wear patterns, and that changes what a roof needs. Tom Barrett and his sons have been putting roofs over families since 1998, and a live person answers our phone at (877) 610-1318 when you call. We pull permits, we sign inspections, and we put every change order in writing before a single shingle comes off.

Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Selma’s Preferred Roofing Company

There’s a reason homeowners along Floral Avenue and up near the high school keep our number. We’ve spent nearly three decades working on Roofing jobs across the Central Valley, and Selma’s specific mix of 1960s tract homes and older Craftsman bungalows shows up in the way we bid and the way we build. Tom Barrett lives twenty minutes away. When a Selma customer calls about a leak after a January fog spell, the person who answers the phone knows what tule fog does to flashing. That’s not a training manual; that’s just having done the work here.

The crews don’t rotate through strangers. Tom’s sons run the jobs, and the crew members who show up at your door are background-checked and uniformed, carrying the Barrett & Sons name on the truck. We publish Tom’s name, address, and license number for anyone who wants to look us up before signing. And every contract carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, one call brings Tom back. No phone tree, no out-of-state call center, no pretending the problem isn’t ours.

We’ve worked on roofs near the Selma Flea Market grounds, around the Raisin Capital neighborhoods east of 99, and throughout the 93662 ZIP. The request we hear most often from Selma homeowners is the same one: they had a national outfit quote one price on the phone and show up with a different number at the door. We don’t do that. Scope in writing, allowances in writing, change orders in writing. That’s the whole system.

Our Roofing Services in Selma

We don’t subcontract the work to a rotating cast. The same crew that tears off your old roof in Selma installs the new one, and the same person who signed the proposal walks the final inspection. Here’s what we handle most often in and around Selma:

Roof Repair

Most Selma roof repairs run $400-$1,800. The usual culprits are what you’d expect from a Central Valley climate: dried-out pipe collars, lifted flashing after wind, cracked tiles from heat cycling, and valley-flash rot that started years before it showed inside. A repair on a modest post-war tract house on a slab isn’t a mystery to us; we’ve done hundreds of them. We stock common flashing, underlayment, and tile profiles so we’re not waiting a week for parts to arrive from Fresno.

Roof Replacement & Installation

Full roof replacements in Selma typically fall between $8,000 and $20,000. The spread comes down to roof size, pitch, decking condition, and material. Homes built in the 1960s and 1970s around Selma often have original 1×6 skip sheathing that needs overlay before new underlayment goes down, and we put that line item in the written scope up front. No surprise invoices at the end because “the decking was worse than we thought.” That’s an allowance that wasn’t on paper, and that’s a surprise waiting for a date.

Metal Roofing

Standing seam metal roofs make sense on a lot of Selma properties because they handle 100°F-plus summers and damp fog winters without the thermal fatigue that cracks tiles and breaks down asphalt. A metal roof installation in Selma generally runs $15,000-$40,000. We install standing seam and exposed-fastener profiles, and we’re honest about which one belongs on your house. On older agricultural-area homes and outbuildings, metal is often the smartest money.

Tile Roofing

Barrel tile roofs are common in certain Selma neighborhoods, and a tile roof repair usually runs $600-$2,500. Broken tiles from foot traffic or limb fall, cracked mortar at the hips, and underlayment that gave out years before the tile did. Matching older tile profiles takes local parts sourcing and patience, both of which we’ve got. If the underlayment has failed, we’ll tell you that before we quote tile repair alone, because putting new tiles over dead underlayment isn’t a repair, it’s a deferral.

Common Roofing Problems We See in Selma Homes

Roofs in Selma don’t fail randomly. Here’s what we actually find when we get up on ladders around town:

• UV-degraded underlayment and caulking: The Central Valley sun punishes roofing membranes, caulks, and wood framing faster than coastal California. On Selma roofs, old felt underlayment and dried pipe collars are the most common failure points we find, often years before the shingles look worn.
• Tule fog moisture damage: From November through February, dense fog sits on Selma for days at a time. That extended moisture exposure works into poorly sealed penetrations and decking. Homeowners near the low-lying areas west of town see more of this than those up on slightly higher ground.
• Thermal cycling cracks in tile hips and ridges: Summer highs over 100°F and near-freezing winter nights expand and contract mortar joints constantly. Cracked mortar at tile hips is one of the most common calls we get in the 93662 ZIP.
• Post-war original roofs reaching end of life: Much of Selma’s housing stock dates to the 1950s through 1980s. That means a lot of original or second-layer roofs are past their intended lifespan, and we often find decking rot at the eaves when we tear them off.

Trusted Brands We Service in Selma

We install GAF and CertainTeed roofing systems, and for window and door upgrades that often accompany a roofing project, we carry premium brands like Simonton and PGT. You can look up those names before you sign. We keep common profiles and components stocked locally so a Selma repair doesn’t stall while a truck drives in from out of state. When your roof needs a new window or a rotted exterior door addressed at the same time, we also handle Windows & Doors in Selma, and if your property needs a new perimeter line, our Fence Installation in Selma crew works the same way: written scope, permits when required, and a name on the truck you can actually verify.
