We wanted to express our gratitude for the exceptional work that Shelton did in replacing our roof. The professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail that they showed throughout the process was truly impressive, and we are thrilled with the final result. Not only did they complete the job on time and within budget, but they also went above and beyond in ensuring that everything was done to the highest standards. From the initial consultation to the final cleanup, the team showed a level of expertise and dedication that is rare to find in any industry. Brad, Mario and team: We cannot thank you enough for the peace of mind that your work has brought us, knowing that our home is now better protected from the elements. We would recommend your company to anyone in need of roofing services without hesitation, and look forward to working with you again for some future upgrades we have in mind. Once again, thank you for your outstanding work and for making this experience a positive one. Really really good people!

Brad Shelton and the team are very knowledgeable. Great working with them through the entire process of replacing a damaged section of my roof. I found all team members very approachable and easy to talk to. When there was a question about the installation or timeline communication was clear every step of the way. The contract was well written and had all the specific details of exactly what I wanted. The job took a little more than one day. Right on schedule. The crew left the job site very clean. I was very pleased with their solar attic fan recommendation. Remington Model # SF40-BLK exhausts 1,600 CFM out of the attic space. I am impressed with the results. The humidity in the attic is gone and the indoor living space temperature has dropped 5-7 degrees making it cooler on hot days. Local roofing company in Watsonville, Santa Cruz County. Highly recommend them to anyone who needs a roof or repair.

The Shelton roofing team did an exceptional job in replacing our roof. Their attention to all the details.involved was noteworthy. They cleaned up the areas daily before leaving, ensuring there were no nails or debris to get stepped on or run over. The great job was confirmed as the day after completion we experience an inch of rain and to our relief there were no more leaks. Their customer service and communication during the project was commendable. We are very happy that we choose Shelton over the other bids and recommend them to anyone that is looking for a new roof.

You know, you’ve found a good company when the owners treat you like family. The Shelton’s are honest and have integrity! This is a company you can trust will do the job right with your best interest in mind, even if that entails the owner himself coming out to resolve any issues! Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The crew did a great job on our complicated roof replacement. They finished ahead of schedule, cleaned up every day, and communicated with us along the way. The communication from the office leading up to construction wasn’t stellar, but the project was managed and completed very well.

I'm Olivia Truitt and I have absolutely been so blessed to work with Shelton Roofing! Not only did they do an incredible job on my roof and follow up with integrity on some small changes we requested, but recently they rescued my sweet cat. See the review under my music profile!

We have used Shelton Roofing for two projects at our home. We were extremely happy with the results….the workmanship was great and the follow-up by the project manager made us very happy. We will recommend them to our friends

Thank you Shelton Team. I so appreciated the fact you recommended a repair instead of a full re-roof. That showed integrity. Your work was fantastic. Thank you

It will be impossible for me to share my gratitude to Brad Shelton, but I will try my best. I was in need of an experienced roofer to rebuild a beach house roof that had been neglected for many many years. In choosing my roofer I was specifically interested in professionalism, quality of work, and excellent communication. It was easy to determine who seemed the best with their initial bids based on the above criterion, but I went into this project with caution. I could not have been any happier and feel so fortunate I went with Brad Shelton. Everything that led up to the roof repair was smooth and timely with excellent communication. They were actually able to start the project a week early, which turned out to be a huge problem because we had a bizarre hail, lightning, thunderstorm in August after two days of dry rot removal. Brad went out to my house the next morning, on a Sunday, to inspect the house and sent tons of photos for my assurance. Fortunately, everything was ok. The project continued and we uncovered tons of dry rot and structural issues. This is where I was so glad I was selective in picking the most professional team. Brad was absolutely amazing. As per my request initially, he sent daily updates with tons of photos and videos explaining the work needed. Obviously, this required change orders, and initially this was my biggest fear. Brad was incredibly professional and honest, I felt so comfortable with everything. He called me daily to make sure we were on the same page. I feel like he took this project personally and truly wanted me to feel satisfied with the work. Many years ago I had worked with a different roofing company and this experience was a thousand times better. In summary, Brad Shelton is the only and the best roofer to use in Santa Cruz. I wish him all the best and remain totally satisfied with his work.

The best roofing experience I can imagine. I cannot even put into words how happy we are with the work, the workers, the company, and the communication. This was a major full tearoff/reroof job involving remediation of a bat infestation and Shelton coordinated seamlessly with the bat company, and kept us well-apprised of all schedule issues. Most impressive was the attention to taking care of our property, including decks, landscape, access, the neighbors...just everything. Our tearoff crew was headed by Anthony Orozco who coordinated with us and kept us totally informed, kept the crew working safely and with care, while treating both customer and crew with respect. The primary roofing crew headed by Pedro (Pete) Madrigal was just as careful and thoughtful, working efficiently, but with complete attention to detail. Extra shout about Eric Wittman and Jesse Ybarra who went the extra mile in making sure everything was to our satisfaction. These guys even went around afterwards cleaning up every scrap of insulation and debris. The yard looked better after they left then when they started. The workers were uniformly friendly and respectful, which I can only think means they are treated with respect by the company itself. Not a bad vibe or sour expression in sight, just skilled workers doing their job with pride. We were prepared for the worst after our neighbor worked with another company, who left a trail of destruction with damage that extended to the interior of the house. Shelton exceeded every expectation and I recommend them without any hesitation, and would use them again in a heartbeat.

I spoke with 4 or 5 companies when I was preparing to reroof my home in Watsonville. Shelton was not necessarily the cheapest, but they clearly were the most knowledgable when it came to the special problems associated with the structure of my roof, and they were the only ones I felt I could trust. The previous roof was a tar and gravel built-up roof over a structure with gentle slopes leading to an internal gutter system. The new roof is an IB membrane system - it is beautiful, and the elastomeric coating system for the gutters should finally take care of the previous leaks. This project involved a lot of extra work because of the required replacement of wood siding that the membrane runs under. Carlos and his crew did an absolutely great job in removing the old roof and in the installation of the new material - including all the detail work that was needed for this project. I could not be happier. They coordinated with the solar installation company to facilitate the installation of the solar panel supports and for sealing around them. Bret Shelton and Craig were accurate with the cost estimates and were very responsive and knowledgable in answering all my questions. I would definitely use them again, although I know I won't need to as this roof is going to last a very long time.

We had an older roof, badly in need of replacement. Shelton bid the job this summer and was flexible with scheduling the work. They had a crew who did removal of the old roof and another that did the installation of the new room. I was most worried about the removal process as I'd heard horror stories of how much of a mess this can be. The Shelton guys did a FANTASTIC job. Their work was right on schedule. They actually didn't make much of a mess at all, and they thoroughly covered the areas where most of mess could be. At the end of each day they cleaned-up and actually left our property better than it was before. It's Fall, and they removed fallen leaves at the same time! They inspected the roof for any needed repairs, but there were no surprises -- which was a great relief! Installation of the new roof went right on schedule and the finished job looks GREAT! Job completed on-time, on-budget, and with no hassle whatsoever. I met most of the guys in the crew and all were nice, friendly, and worked hard! Thank you, Shelton!! Of course the acid test will be when the rains come, but I think we're well prepared!

Brad Shelton and team did a great job on our detached garage on this older Santa Cruz property we just bought. We had used Shelton Roofing several times and so we returned to them and they did us right. This Garage is pretty old and was build back then using all Redwood including T&G for the roof itself. It also had 3 layers of shingles put on it over the years. There was quite a bit of decay to the old roof right down to the original redwood. Sheltons team removed all the old materials, and had custom redwood milled for us to match the size of the older lumber. On top of this they put down plywood and then the new composite shingles. They touched up some of the facings and other areas and left the job clean. Even though i am quite sure this required more work than they anticipated they stuck to the original fixed bid. These are honest, local folks with a long reputation here in Santa Cruz. I am glad I stuck with them and will do any new job with them. 100% recommend

Shelton Roofing was the company our family chose out of 3 companies we had give us estimates in 2001, to re-roof part of our house with some kind of insulation, because our house got way too hot inside. The estimator knew exactly what needed to be done and was obviously very experienced. He explained well how air venting was needed under the roof shingles and it was going to be expensive but was well worth it. Since we were having a 9 y.o. roof replaced we only had half of the house re-roofed at the time, including the garage. The roof over the hot part of the house and the garage has provided us with so much comfort these past 14 years and absolutely no problems that I feel guilty we have not sent TY cards to Shelton Roofing every hot summer. I just wanted to tell everyone now how grateful we still are that we chose Shelton. We are hoping to get them back out soon to re-roof the rest of the house before the rains return.

I called Shelton Roofing to come out to my house to give me an estimate on a metal roof. The owner was who came out to give me the estimate. He came down from inspecting my roof and the first thing he said to me was, "You know you don't need a new roof? You probably have 10-15 years left in your existing roof". I didn't think my roof was in bad shape, but wasn't sure and was really just thinking it would be nice to have a metal roof instead. He told me that he would be glad to put a new metal roof on if I wanted to spend the money, but that it wasn't necessary. I REALLY appreciated his honesty. I had received one other estimate and that person never said my roof was in great condition. When it does come time to replace my roof, I will be giving Shelton Roofing a call based on their quick response and their honesty. I highly recommend them.

After the storm we had our roof redone. Unfortunatley the company who performed the work left nails coming through our ceiling. We were worried about the work they did and having issues with leaks. That company disregarded our concerns. I called Shelton and explained concerns. The representiave who answered the phone was really great about working around my hectic work schedule. Brad came out and examined the roof. He told us it was just Aesthetic concern and that the nails could be cut and checked to ensure it was properly sealed so leaks would not occur. He also explained the cocking issue with the sun roof to us and how we could fix it ourselves because the issues was so minor. I really appreciate how honest he was and his taking the time to examine everything and explain it to us. I would highly recommended them based on our experience.

I had Shelton roofing replace my roof in Paradise Park. I should say first that Brett came to my place a couple times and looked at the roof, both times he said, wait five years. Back to the present. These guys did a quick and very neat tear off. The foreman was excellent, explaining issues as they went along. The roof went up just as fast as the old one came off, or almost. The roof has new ridge vents and they installed zinc strips to help prevent the moss growth that is so prevalent here. I really couldn't have asked for more from a roofer and believe me, I am picky. The main guy installing the roof was willing to answer all my questions and he was as polite and professional as they come. Kurt L.

I'd like to thank Brad for his compassion and honesty in helping my 90 year old mother with her roof leak. We were concerned about another wet winter and the expense of a new roof but his office prioritized his schedule, came out to the house and determined the valley where the roof lines intersect was clogged with debris. Without insisting we make another appointment, Brad climbed on the roof and blew off the accumulated dirt and leaves....AT NO CHARGE! Though we watch for signs of leakage, the house remains dry and comfortable for my mom. Thank you!!!

We had been dealing with a leak that has ruined the drywall in the kitchen for some time. The hardest part was getting someone to come out and actually look at the problem in order to get a bid. Not only did Brett come out, he was on time, super courteous and amazingly helpful. Ends up that the problem could be solved with some heavy duty caulking that my husband and I were able to do. Brett didn't charge us for the visit even though he essentially fixed the problem. We will be sure to call him first when we need roof repairs in the future!

A tree fell on my house causing the need for repair and re-roofing. I got several quotes for the job. I went with Shelton as they seemed honest and the quote reflected in my opinion, what the job should cost. After the roof was removed it was found that the damage was substantial. Shelton roofing had very skilled people who were able to do the repair right. From the owner of the company to the crew doing the work you will find skilled people who work hard and who have treated me well. I would not hesitate to recommend this company.

I'm writing for my father in-law, who doesn't Yelp but asked that I write a review for these guys because Brett did such an outstanding job on his roof. My father in-law has had a leak issue on his roof for more than 10 years, and many professionals out to attempt a fix on what turned out to be very difficult troubleshooting. Brett, the expert he was, came out and in one visit solved what had been a long term problem. My father in law has recommended Shelton Roofing to us for our upcoming roof project and would recommend them to anyone.

This is a great roofing company. I feel like the owner is honest and gave me straight forward information about my roof. The roof inspector told me that I have about 3-5 years left with the existing roof and while he was up there he replaced some missing shingles at a very fair price. In 3 years I will most definitely call them for a complete roof replacement. I know Shelton Roofing because I see them out at Pajaro Dunes all the time and will recommend them to my clients that need a new roof. Thanks Shelton Roofing!

I had two leaks around my large skylight in my kitchen. Brad, the owner of Shelton Roofing came out to do the inspection and estimate. I was impressed with his knowledge and skill. It turned out he was able to quickly fix the problem right then and there. He worked with precision, skill and speed. He was professional, understanding, and eager to help me get the problem solved. I am VERY impressed, and highly recommend Shelton Roofing to anyone needing roofing services. Thank you Brad!!!!!

I have know Brett Shelton Roofing for over 30 years. Over the years Shelton Roofing has installed several new roofs for me and replace existing old roofs as well. They have been nothing short of perfect on each project. The Employees have always been professional and very attentive to our site needs. I have recommended Shelton to friends and customers whom have also been very happy with jobs well done. Simply put, you can't go wrong hiring Shelton Roofing for all your projects.

Writing a revised review. The owner came out personally to take care of the issues I had previously written a review about. The communication was beyond excellent, he was timely, polite, professional and I believe got the issues fixed. Honestly the only way to tell is if we get a big storm, which hasn't happened yet. But he did his best, and I'm convinced he tried his best!

I would recommend Shelton Roofing to everyone. Craig did a great job of estimating and relaying the advantages of the IB polymer product. Carlos and crew were prompt and professional. Brett came to help find proper vents for the vaulted areas. I really appreciated Shelton for all aspects of replacing our roof!

I got my roof done about a year ago. It went smooth. Brett had no problem understanding what I wanted. Brett was easy to understand and delivered what he promised, They got done quickly and left the outside of my home more clean then when they started I would highly recommend Shelton Roofing

I have used Shelton Roofing a few times and the service has always been outstanding. The owner will often come to consult you on the job and he is extremely knowledgable having done thousands of roofs and roof repairs (they also do gutters). I highly recommend Shelton Roofing.

Got our mobile home's roof completely redone with new improved insulation, flexible membrane, and new skylight. Came in with in budget and they took care of all the permits. We are staying cooler and warmer.

Shelton Roofing did an outstanding job replacing the roof on our Santa Cruz home. They were fast, clean, courteous, friendly, and provided great value for the price. Highly recommend
