Peninsula
Customer Feedback:
Cal-Pac Roofing
“These people are gold. You just can’t find people like this anymore. I think I’ve referred five or six customers to them since they completed my job. I had a small problem a year later, and they took care of it immediately. The roof is beautiful, and the product is awesome. They put in two sky tunnels, too. Those really are terrific. I put one in the central hallway, and it just opened up the whole house. At night, even the moonlight lights up the house.”
