They're really reliable. If there are any problems with the roof, like a leak or something, they come out and do the repairs, sometimes at no charge. There have been many times when I call them out to do quick fixes, and they're just there for me.

I liked their communication, because I have had issues with other companies in the past regarding communication. We have had no problems with them, and they're our go-to roofers.

Comparative Summary

Maintaining customer satisfaction is a crucial aspect of any business, but it’s even more important for roofing contractors that have earned the prestigious Diamond Certified award. For Roofmasters / Bird Control Services, the key to achieving and maintaining high levels of customer satisfaction is simple: take a service-oriented approach to every project, regardless of its size. “The way we see it, we’re just as much in the customer service business as we are in the roofing business,” says Office Manager Jonathan Weiss. “Some roofing companies only care about the nuts and bolts of the job, but we’re equally concerned about meeting our clients’ expectations and providing positive experiences from beginning to end.”

Roofmasters / Bird Control Services has been installing, repairing, and maintaining roofs for residential and commercial clients in Solano, Napa, Yolo, and Central Contra Costa Counties since 1993. The family-owned and operated company is also qualified to provide bird control services, repair dry rot damage, install ventilation and insulation in attics, and more.

Unlike less experienced roofing contractors that take a “one size fits all” approach to every job in an effort to maximize their workload volume, Roofmasters / Bird Control Services focuses on one project at a time and makes sure all work meets the client’s expectations before moving on. “A lot of roofing companies spread their employees across several jobs, but we concentrate all our efforts on a single project until it’s finished,” says owner Aaron Weiss. “That way, we’re able to work with greater efficiency and make sure nothing gets overlooked.”

Another distinguishing attribute of Roofmasters / Bird Control Services is its dedication to quality control throughout every phase of its work. “We have a foreman onsite for every new installation, which a lot of companies don’t offer,” says Mr. Weiss. “In addition to being the client’s primary contact during the job, the foreman is there to oversee the installation and make sure all work meets our high standards for quality.”

Industry Info

Due to Title 24 regulations, your roof replacement may be more costly than expected. In the past, if you needed a new roof, you simply replaced it. However, with increased government regulation and energy efficiency standards, many California homeowners are now required to implement additional upgrades when installing a new roof. “There have been building code changes in certain climate zones of California, including Solano County, which affect homeowners who are planning to replace their roofs,” explains Jonathan Weiss, office manager of Roofmasters / Bird Control Services in Suisun City. “Under Title 24, which is also known as the California Energy Code, any home that undergoes a structural alteration like a roof replacement must be brought up to current energy efficiency standards. For many homeowners, that’s a substantial additional expense.”

There are a couple of ways to go about achieving energy code compliance, one of which is to install a “cool roof.” Consisting of highly reflective roofing shingles, a cool roofing system significantly lowers solar heat transfer into a home’s attic and, subsequently, the home itself. Not only do cool roofs meet Title 24 energy efficiency standards, according to the Cool Roof Rating Council, homeowners who install them stand to save an average of 7 to 15 percent on home cooling costs.

Another way homeowners can satisfy Title 24 requirements is to improve the insulation and ventilation of their attics. For many, this is a more affordable option for achieving code compliance, and it provides added benefits of lowering temperatures in the home and extending the life of the roof. Plus, it allows homeowners to install any type of roof system they want.

Regardless of which approach you take, bringing your home up to current energy efficiency standards will make it code compliant and provide several residual benefits that you’ll continue to enjoy long after the initial expense.

Aaron Weiss: Roof Master

By James Florence, Diamond Certified Program Reporter

SUISUN CITY — With a name like Roofmasters, a business has a lot to live up to. Fortunately, owner Aaron Weiss has the professional background and expertise to back up his company’s moniker. “I’ve been in roofing my whole life,” he says. “Straight out of high school, I started working for my family’s roofing company in Richmond. Roofing always seemed like a good trade, and since I had the added support of my family, I saw a lot of opportunity to succeed. After working for the family business for several years, my brother and I branched off and started our own company in Solano County.”

Today, as owner of Roofmasters / Bird Control Services, Aaron says his favorite part of his job is interacting with customers. “I really enjoy helping people who are having issues with their roofs and providing them with quality service. It’s always rewarding.” He also explains how his company’s specialization in bird control has enabled it to stand out amongst the competition. “A common roof issue is damage caused by birds, so we decided to get into bird abatement, which includes techniques like putting up netting and chemical application. We had really good results when we first introduced it, and now it’s a big part of our business.”

A lifetime resident of the Bay Area, Aaron says it’s an ideal environment for someone in his line of work. “The weather in the Bay Area makes it a great place for roofing. You don’t have to deal with some of the bigger weather patterns that you would in other regions, so we’re pretty lucky in that way.”

Outside of work, Aaron spends most of his time with his wife, Wendy, and their six children. “Wendy and I each have two adult children, and then we have a 1-year-old and a 2-month-old together,” he explains. “Basically, we’ve started all over again! We really enjoy taking the little ones places and sharing new experiences with them.” Aaron also likes activities like camping, following professional sports and performing home remodeling projects. “In addition to working on my own house, I do a lot of remolding projects for friends and family, which is very rewarding.”

In his life and career, Aaron espouses the wisdom of the age-old golden rule. “It’s all about treating people the way you’d want to be treated,” he affirms. “At the end of each day, I like to go to bed knowing I did my best and treated my colleagues and clients in an honest, respectful way.”

When asked the first thing he’d do if he could retire tomorrow, Aaron says he’d employ his building know-how to construct a mountain hideaway. “I would build a cabin in the mountains. That way, whenever I wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle of urban life, I’d have a place to retreat.”

Ask Me Anything!

Q: What’s your favorite season?
A: Fall—I like the wind-down from summer into preparing for the holidays.

Q: If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?
A: Probably Germany. I’m part German, and I’d like to see some of the castles and other architectural features they have.

Q: Are you an early bird or a night owl?
A: An early bird, but not by choice!

Q: Did you play any sports in high school?
A: I played football as a defensive tackle.

Q: What’s your favorite holiday?
A: Thanksgiving—it revolves around family, but you don’t have all the commercialism that clutters a lot of the other holidays.

The Importance of Bird Control

by Aaron Weiss, a Diamond Certified Expert Contributor

SUISUN CITY — Few homeowners realize how much damage birds (especially pigeons) can cause to a roof. The acidity of bird droppings can cause extensive damage to roofing materials, resulting in leaks and other issues. On tile roofs, buildup from droppings can cause water (as well as the droppings themselves) to dam up and be diverted beneath the tiles, which creates excessive saturation and/or deterioration that leads to leaks, mold and dry rot. Given enough time, bird droppings can even corrode through metal gutters.

An even greater concern is the health risks that can arise from exposure to bird droppings on your property (again, particularly with pigeons). Salmonella, E. coli and Histoplasmosis are all associated with exposure to bird droppings. Histoplasmosis is a serious respiratory infection caused by breathing in spores from a fungus found in bat or bird droppings. The disease can be fatal, especially to young children and people with compromised immune systems. Due to the risk of inhaling airborne spores, you should never handle or attempt to clean dry bird droppings without taking proper precautions. Always keep small children and pets away from nesting materials and droppings.

To avoid the damage and health risks that birds can bring, take measures to keep them off of your roof. Solutions include bird repellent gel, which deters birds by making their roosting areas sticky and gooey; bird spikes, which can be installed on rooftops, rafters, gutters or any other area where birds roost; stainless steel bird netting; and electric track, which, like an electric fence, gives birds a shock when they attempt to roost. By incorporating one or more of these bird control solutions, you’ll be able keep birds at bay and protect your roof and your family.

Taking Advantage of Solar Incentives

by Aaron Weiss, a Diamond Certified Expert Contributor

SUISUN CITY — Until recently, many California residents have been hesitant about installing solar energy systems due to the costs involved. However, with the various government programs in force today, there’s never been a better—or more affordable—time to go solar.

First of all, California homeowners who install solar are automatically eligible for a 30 percent tax credit, which covers a substantial amount of the total cost right off the bat. Also, there are several good financing programs available, both government-sponsored and otherwise. For instance, the recently launched Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) program enables homeowners to finance solar systems with no upfront costs. What’s more, PACE offers additional financial perks such as letting homeowners deduct their solar system payments from their property taxes (since the system is considered part of the property).

However, keep in mind that these government programs won’t last forever. For example, the 30 percent tax credit that’s currently offered may expire as early as 2016. So, don’t wait—contact a solar installer soon to take advantage of these financial incentives and reap the rewards of going solar.

Video: Solar Incentives

with Aaron Weiss of
Roofmasters / Bird Control Services

Complete Video Transcription:

SUISUN CITY — Host, Sarah Rutan: Due to the number of financing options and government incentives available, there’s never been a better time to install a solar energy system. Today we’re in Suisun City with Diamond Certified Expert Contributor Aaron Weiss of Roofmasters / Bird Control Services to learn more.

Diamond Certified Expert Contributor, Aaron Weiss: So, I’d like to talk about solar – rooftop solar. A lot of people have been afraid of the cost of solar, and not certain that it’s worth it financially. Now, the way programs are set up, and some of the government help that you can get, it’s a great time to do solar.

The government will, right now, give you a thirty percent tax credit when you install solar on your house. So, essentially, that helps you pay for a substantial amount. Now, those – that is going to expire, potentially, at the end of year thousand sixteen – 2016. However, right now you can get solar, have a large portion of that covered by that thirty percent tax credit.

Also, there’s great financing programs out there. There’s also programs that are government sponsored, that will help you take the price of solar and put it into your property tax. Those are great programs. Those are programs that help you not have any initial upfront cost, and you can save money immediately.
