Report
Great service and integrity. We purchased an entirely new EPDM roof about 9 years ago from Shadowfax Roofing. The roof came with a 10 year warranty on workmanship and lifetime on materials. About 5 years in I noticed something that needed repair, they came over and fixed it quickly without question. Just recently, a little over 9 years in, I noticed some dry rot around our chimney (notoriously difficult spots for leaking) and called them up. Ben came out (highly recommend Ben), spent 30 minutes inspecting the damage. concluded it was within the warranty.
Five days later there were 3 guys repairing our roof. Awesome service! They could have cleaned up just a bit more as there were pieces of wood and materials here and there but that's a detail. They got the vast majority. Thank you ShadowFax!

Report
Wanted a small local company to do both re-roofing and solar installation (so they'd integrate & stand behind both). Went with Shadowfax because some friends had a good roofing experience with them. And Luke had the best follow-up of the eight different estimators I had out (and seemed very honest & straightforward). They did a great job (with solid follow-through) on all the many interconnected steps (removing & replacing old roof & gutters, installing solar panels & electrical components, getting city permits & PG&E approval, etc.). And Luke overcame some obstacles to get me the exact panels I wanted, all fitting on my limited southern-exposure roof surface, and online before end of year for the tax credit.

Not perfect, but very good. Just a few minor hiccups and delays, but the end result is great. Looks to be a high quality job. They could do better keeping the homeowner informed of when their workers are scheduled to show up.

Shadowfax did a high quality job for a reasonable price. I had an almost 50 year old tile roof that I wanted replaced with tile. Shadowfax was responsive with the initial quote, came to my house to talk about the details of the roof, helped pick colors based on pictures I found on the Internet, and shipped me some sample tiles for free before I selected the color. This installation was also a solar installation and they took my input about what I wanted, such as how many panels and which direction they could face.
They designed a system that's providing more power than I expected, did a quality job, and made the permitting process easy. This business was one of the few I could find who were willing to do both roof and solar in one project. Their final price was exactly what they bid and it includes a warranty on workmanship. We were very satisfied with this job.
