Yes. In El Cajon's designated wildfire zones we install wood & framing repair as a Class-A rated assembly compliant with California Building Code Chapter 7A ember-resistant construction, including ember-blocking bird stop, fire-rated underlayment, and code-compliant vent detailing.

El Cajon'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.

Plywood sheathing replacement typically runs $95–$165 per sheet installed, fascia $12–$22 per linear foot, and rafter tail repairs $150–$400 each. All wood is quoted at fixed unit prices in the proposal.

Signs include soft or spongy spots underfoot, sagging rooflines, peeling paint on fascia, gutters pulling away, and dark staining or crumbling wood at eaves. A ladder and attic inspection confirms extent.

We include a decking and wood allowance in every replacement proposal and state the unit prices up front. Rot hidden beneath the old roof is billed at those same pre-agreed rates — never marked up mid-project.

Sheathing and fascia replacement generally falls under the roofing permit. Rafter, beam, and structural member replacement requires a separate structural permit and sometimes engineered details — we handle both filings.

Yes. Patio covers, eaves, and overhangs are reframed and re-roofed as part of the same project so flashing transitions and drainage are detailed correctly in one pass.

Yes — we replace termite-damaged rafters, fascia, and sheathing, and coordinate with your pest operator so treatment happens before new wood and underlayment go on.

Typical rot repair adds 1–2 working days to a re-roof. Larger structural rebuilds involving rafters, beams, or inspections can add 3–5 days depending on permit scheduling.

Manufacturer system warranties require a sound deck, so we replace compromised wood before installation. That is what allows us to issue full 50-year system warranties on the completed assembly.
