Serving all of Albuquerque metro

Albuquerque's independent roof inspector.

After 20 years in NM roofing, I'd rather write you an honest report than sell you a roof you don't need. Written reports Albuquerque homeowners actually own — before you sign a contract with anyone.

Built for Albuquerque roofs

High-UV south exposure

ABQ's 310 sunny days age south-facing shingles years faster than the rated life. We call out real remaining service life, not the label.

Spring hail off the Sandias

West-facing slopes get bruised hardest. We document strike density with chalk circles and geo-tagged photos ready for adjusters.

Flat/parapet roofs in the Valley

TPO, mod-bit, and old built-up — we know which are worth recoating and which are cooked. Includes drainage and scupper checks.

Monsoon microbursts July–September

Wind-lifted ridge caps, blown-off flashing, and pinhole leaks that only show in horizontal rain. We test for these on purpose.

Albuquerque neighborhoods we work weekly

Neighborhood-specific notes on roof age, materials, and the failure patterns we see most.

  • Northeast Heights
    87111 / 87112 / 87122 · 1960s–1990s

    The Heights is our largest single neighborhood — we work it weekly. Most homes are due for architectural-shingle upgrades from worn-out 3-tab.

  • North Valley
    87107 / 87114 · 1940s–present (mixed)

    Lots of older adobe here. We specialize in flat-roof re-pitching and parapet rebuilds without losing the original character.

  • Nob Hill
    87106 / 87108 · 1920s–1950s

    Tight street access, historic style, and stacked old roofing layers. We're set up for it — small dumpsters, careful tear-off, modern TPO or modbit assemblies that look right on a 1930s home.

  • Westside / Ventana Ranch / Petroglyph
    87114 / 87120 / 87121 · 1990s–2010s

    Lots of fresh hail claims out here. Builder-grade shingles in tract neighborhoods are hitting end-of-life right when storm damage piles up.

  • South Valley
    87105 / 87121 · 1930s–present (mixed)

    We do a lot of restoration-cost coating work here that keeps roofs alive 10+ more years for a fraction of replacement. Honest scoping matters.

  • Foothills & High Desert
    87111 / 87122 / 87123 · 1980s–present

    Wind is real up here — we tighten fastener schedules and spec wind-rated assemblies. Metal makes a lot of sense for homes staying long-term.

  • High Desert
    87122 · 1990s–2010s

    High Desert ARC is one of the strictest in the metro. We keep pre-approved color samples on the truck and prep the packet before your first submission.

  • Four Hills
    87123 · 1960s–1980s

    Four Hills is aging fast. Most homes we inspect here are on their second-generation roof and due again.

  • Downtown / EDo
    87102 · 1900s–1950s

    Downtown means small crews, careful tear-off, and TPO or modbit assemblies that hold up without wrecking the historic look.

  • Uptown
    87110 · 1970s–1990s

    Lots of townhomes and condo associations near Uptown. We coordinate multi-unit tear-offs so neighbors aren't fighting over dumpster placement.

  • Sandia Heights
    87122 · 1970s–2000s

    Sandia Heights lots come with wind, sun, and fire exposure the rest of ABQ doesn't see. We spec for all three.
