August Roofing & Solar

This was a complicated job. With solar already installed, I needed to replace the flat roof portion of my roof in a way that would not void the warranty on the solar and would also get me a new roof with a warranty. (The "stand-offs" on which solar gear is mounted involve roof penetrations, and penetrations normally void a roof warranty.)

I included August Roofing among the companies from which I got bids because I'd seen their trucks on a number of jobs in my 220-home HOA. August Roofing coordinated with my solar company in what amounted to a five-step, two-party process of (1) remove solar, (2) tear off existing roof, (3) install solar stand-offs, (4) install new roof and waterproof the standoffs and (5) reinstall solar. I went with a three-ply roof because it seemed like the smart thing to do.

We had a bit of a hiccup at the end, but August Roofing absolutely and unhesitatingly made it right, and did so right away. Once done, my house came through the massive rains of February and early March dry as a bone inside.

August Roofing certainly isn't the least expensive company out there, but in the end I was very satisfied with the work and with the wonderfully -- and in this day and age, surprisingly -- ethical way in which they handled it.

Highly recommended. Communication with us was 10/10. Customer service 10/10. Crew was highly professional, showed up on time and very respectful and considerate.
Prices are great and reasonable.

Excellent and informative roof technician. Did a great job. Cleaned up and supplies me with the roof tiles needed for replacement of broken ones.

He is not family, a relative, or a friend; but August Solar's employee, Thinus van der Merwe treated us like it. What a great attitude and competent young man. He quickly fixed any remaining items to get the system up and running. He also spent time with us to show us how to read the computer reports for system efficiency. Thank you for sending such a qualified, knowledgeable employee.

The proof of a good company is one that is going to help you when you call back even though it's been over 10 years. The roof is holding up absolutely GREAT! I was contacting them because I needed proof that I did have a new roof put on for insurance reasons. Melissa Ravens answered my call and went above and beyond to help me out.
That kind of customer service is unheard of today. That is the type of company you want to give your business to. I have referred a lot of people to August Roofing over the years and I will continue to do so. If you need a new roof this is the team and the company you want to use. Thank you August Roofing for your entire team, your products and your exceptional customer service. Thank you again, Melissa.

I am surprised that there are so few others who have had bad experiences with August. Since they replaced our roof 3 years ago we have not had a single winter without water intrusion. We have incurred so much costs from having to replace drywall and repaint over and over again. They assure us they have fixed the problem but it is never fixed. There is always something new that for some reason they didn't do when they originally replaced the roof. So of course the work is out of warranty. When I hired them I told them all I wanted was for my roof to stop leaking and they assured me they were up to the job. Clearly, they were not. We now have more water damage. And then you call and the people who you dealt with all seem to have disappeared and so they have no explanation for why things are not repaired correctly. They just keep saying, this time it will be fixed. Forget it. No more. And now I am warning others with my experience since I have had such a disaster of an experience.

My wife and I left town when the roof repair was starting because we wanted to avoid the noise. I knew I could trust August Roofing because of the recommendations from other past customers. Their slogan, Peace of Mind is accurate. Their quality of workmanship is outstanding.

Avoid August Roofing. One of the worst roofing companies I've had the misfortune to deal with.
Customer service is a joke....they don't return calls, don't show up when they're supposed to.
My four year old roof has leaks. I advised them of this over three months ago. Since then they've done nothing except give me the run around!
I do not understand the good reviews they've gotten; it makes me question their validity.
Attached is a photo showing fungal growth and dry rot caused by one of the leaks.
Do yourself a favor and avoid these people.
By the way, i live in Simi Valley; it don't know why my profile says San Francisco.

I would highly recommend August Roofing & Solar. They replaced our 30 year old S-Tile roof and the experience could not have been better. The Team was professional, attentive to our requests, and friendly. They resolved the normal on-the-job issues in the most skillful manner. There work was well-coordinated and efficient. They met the timelines given to us; and, at the end of every work day, the site was completely clean of debris. We chose August Roofing because they were local (important to us) with years of experience. There projects reflected their professionalism. Our experience definitely warrants a 5 Star review.

In April, 2021 I purchased a house in Thousand Oaks. In 2018 August Roofing had installed a ceramic tile roof for the prior owner with a ten year warranty.

During Summer, 2021 due to high winds some ridge tiles came loose, fell onto some other tiles, and shattered them. I called August Roofing and invoked the warranty. Within a few days they were here and completely quickly repaired the roof, replacing the damaged and shattered ceramic tiles at no cost.

If you looked at the roof now and did not know about the incident, you would have no idea that anything had every occurred.
