Company Background
Emile L'Hoir started his roofing career back in 1979, and the lessons from those early union training days in Local 40 have defined his approach ever since. Tired of the industry's 'fast-is-good-enough' mentality, where work you couldn't see from the ground was often overlooked, he founded Above All Roofing Services in 1997. For over 25 years, his philosophy has been simple: treat every roof like your life depends on it. Whether it's ensuring felt is lapped perfectly, flashings are tight and straight, or nails are driven beyond code to his personal standards, the goal is always to prevent leaks and protect your home. As a San Carlos neighbor and a CertainTeed ShingleMaster, Emile brings over 40 years of dedicated craftsmanship to every gutter cleaning, inspection, repair, or new installation, believing your trust is his reputation.
Q&A
As a San Carlos homeowner, how do you address common issues like flashing failure and poor ventilation?
We see these issues frequently in our local climate. For flashing, we don't just patch—we inspect the entire system, from chimney to valleys, ensuring all metal is properly fitted, sealed, and installed to our exacting standards to prevent water intrusion. For ventilation, we assess your attic's airflow and recommend solutions, like ridge or soffit vents, that meet your home's specific needs to regulate temperature and prevent moisture damage, which is crucial for the longevity of your roof.
What does your roof inspection process involve, and why is it important before a repair?
Our inspection is a thorough, hands-on assessment. We don't just look from the ground; we get on the roof to check shingles, flashings, seals, and the underlying structure. This meticulous approach, honed from decades of experience, identifies the true root cause of problems—like hidden damage from past quick fixes. It ensures any repair we recommend or perform is complete and lasting, giving you and your family genuine peace of mind about your home's protection.
You offer both roof repair and replacement. How do you help a homeowner decide which service is needed?
It starts with our detailed inspection. We evaluate the roof's age, the extent of damage, and the condition of the decking. If issues are isolated and the structure is sound, a targeted repair is often the most sensible choice. However, if there's widespread wear, recurring leaks, or multiple compromised layers, a full replacement or reroofing with quality materials becomes a more reliable, long-term investment. We explain all options clearly, so you can make an informed decision for your home.
