Yes. California First Roofing holds CSLB License #1094851 (B and C-39), is fully bonded, and carries general liability and workers' compensation insurance. Every Allied Gardens tile lift & relay job is inspected and warrantied.

25–40 year underlayment manufacturer warranty depending on system selected, plus our workmanship warranty on relay, flashing, and detailing. All warranty documentation is registered in your name at project completion.

Yes. Every Allied Gardens tile lift & relay installation is engineered to exceed local wind-uplift ratings — 6-nail high-wind patterns on shingles, foam-set or mechanically fastened ridge and hip on tile, and concealed clip systems rated for hurricane-force winds on standing-seam metal.

Allied Gardens's inland heat degrades sub-par underlayments and low-grade materials fast. We specify Title 24 cool-roof rated materials, high-temperature synthetic underlayments, and reflective coatings where applicable — reducing attic temperatures and measurably cutting cooling costs.

Lift and relay typically runs $7–$12 per square foot installed — roughly 50–65% of a complete tile replacement — including new underlayment, battens, flashing, and a written tile breakage allowance.

If your tile is sound but the roof is 25+ years old with original felt and showing leaks or granule loss at gutters, lift and relay is usually the right call. A drone and attic inspection confirms which path makes sense.

Typical breakage runs 3–8% depending on tile age and profile. We include a specific breakage allowance in the proposal and source matching replacement tile from Boral, Eagle, MCA, and salvage yards.

Most single-family San Diego lift and relay projects finish in 4–7 working days — often faster than a full replacement because there is no new-tile delivery or staging.

Yes — the new underlayment carries its manufacturer warranty of 25–40 years, and our workmanship warranty covers the relay, flashing, valleys, and all penetration details.

No — that is the main advantage. Your original tile goes back on, so color, profile, and weathering stay identical, which keeps HOA architectural committees satisfied with no submittal for a new material.

Yes. With the tile off and felt stripped we inspect the full deck and replace any delaminated or rotted sheathing before new underlayment is installed. Decking work is line-itemed at a fixed unit price.

For localized leaks we can perform a partial lift and relay of the affected slope or valley. When the underlayment is uniformly at end of life, a whole-roof relay costs less per square foot and avoids repeat repairs.
