Your request is in.
We are matching it now against roofing contractors working in Tustin and the surrounding area.
- Today, usually within the hour. The first contractor calls or texts the number you gave us. ASAP requests go out first.
- Up to three of them, no more. We cap it at three so you can compare without your phone melting.
- They come and look. Estimates are given after somebody has been on the roof, not over the phone.
- You decide, or you do not. There is nothing to cancel and nothing to pay us.
If you do not hear anything today, check your voicemail and spam folder — contractors often call from a mobile number.
These are estimated ranges, not quotes. Compiled from public installed-cost data for California and adjusted for how Tustin is built. No contractor is bound by them, and nobody can price a roof they have not stood on.
| Item | Typical range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Seamless aluminium gutter, per foot | $12 – $28 | Most homes run 160 to 220 feet. |
| Ridge and intake ventilation upgrade | $624 – $2,555 | The cheapest thing you can do to make the next roof last its full life. |
| Skylight replacement, each | $1,226 – $3,611 | Cheaper done during a re-roof than on its own afterwards. |
What moves the price
- Access — a truck that cannot get near the house adds hours to every load
- Permit and inspection fees, which vary more between towns than people expect
- Whether the valleys, drip edge and step flashing are being replaced or reused
- How many old layers have to come off before the new one goes on
- Pitch — anything over about 7:12 needs staging and slows a crew down
Locally
They also drive ember risk, which is why vent screening and Class A assemblies matter more here than the colour of the covering.
Guards reduce cleaning rather than eliminating it. Price them as a convenience, not as a permanent fix.

Questions about price
Is moss on the roof a problem?
Yes, eventually. Moss holds water against the shingle and lifts the edges as it thickens. Zinc or copper strip at the ridge suppresses it. Pressure washing an asphalt roof strips the granules and does more harm than the moss did.
Do I need a permit?
Yes, in nearly every jurisdiction a re-roof is permitted work. A contractor who suggests skipping it is telling you something useful about how they work.
How long should a roof last here?
An architectural asphalt roof is rated for twenty-five to thirty years and, in this climate, tends to land at the lower end of that. Tile and metal go much further, provided what is underneath them is maintained.
