Roof City did an excellent job on my roof. They were professional, fast, efficient, and clean. They over- delivered on their promise to do a five- star job in two days, which included all materials and permits needed. They deserve a 10 star rating 🌟 ✨ 💫🌟✨💫🌟✨💫☀️🙌🏾😀👍🏾

Local Tip
Santa Clara's Old Quad neighborhood near the university has some of the oldest homes in the South Bay — many with original clay tile roofs from the 1920s-1930s. Tile restoration rather than full replacement is often possible and preserves historic character.

Our Castro Valley and Sacramento offices support local estimating, permit coordination, and project planning across these regions.
How does billing and financing work?
Financing may be available for eligible projects with approved credit. Available terms depend on lender approval, project scope, and current programs. Your project manager can review the options that apply before work begins. We also accept checks, ACH, and major credit cards.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Hamilton Exteriors holds CSLB License #1078806, active general liability coverage, and the required contractor bond. We also hold GAF Master Elite and James Hardie Elite Preferred credentials. We can provide current proof of coverage before work begins.
Do I need a permit for my exterior project?
Permit requirements depend on the project scope and local jurisdiction. Hamilton Exteriors coordinates required applications, plan documents, corrections, and inspections. Permit fees and allowances appear in the proposal before construction begins.
How much does a general contractor cost in Santa Clara?
General contractor rates in Santa Clara range from $75 to $150 per hour for labor, depending on the trade (Hamilton Exteriors 2024-2026 project data). Most projects are bid on a fixed-price basis. A typical bathroom remodel runs $25,000 to $45,000, while a full kitchen remodel costs $50,000 to $100,000. We provide fixed-price quotes after an on-site inspection.
Do I need a permit for a roof replacement in Santa Clara?
Yes. Santa Clara requires a building permit for any roof replacement. Permit fees run $400 to $800 (Hamilton Exteriors 2024-2026 project data). Your contractor should pull the permit and schedule the final inspection. If a contractor suggests skipping the permit, find a different contractor.
How long does a home addition take in Santa Clara?
A single-story addition of 400 to 800 square feet typically takes 4 to 6 months from permit issuance to completion. Design and permitting add 2 to 4 months before construction starts. Timing depends on city review times, which can vary.
What is the best roofing material for Santa Clara's climate?
Premium architectural asphalt shingles are the most popular choice for Santa Clara homes. They handle the heat well and last 25 to 50 years. For homes near open space, metal roofing offers superior fire resistance and reflects up to 70 percent of solar energy (Oak Ridge National Laboratory).
Does Hamilton Exteriors serve all of Santa Clara?
Yes. We serve every neighborhood in Santa Clara, from the historic downtown area to the newer developments near the San Tomas Expressway. We also serve all of Santa Clara County.
