About Lacey Roof Pros: Licensed Roofing Pros in WA
Lacey Roof Pros works north Thurston County and the outwash prairie either side of the Pierce County line: Lacey, Tumwater, Yelm, DuPont, Rainier, Tenino, Rochester, Spanaway, Graham and the small towns between them. It is a compact market and we would rather be known in it for accurate diagnosis than for volume.
The city is young by roofing standards. Census figures for year of construction put roughly seven in eight Lacey homes at 1970 or later and about six in ten at 1990 or later, with barely one house in a hundred predating 1940.
That matters less as a style question than as a plumbing one, because each of those decades handed roof runoff to the ground a different way, and the method under your lawn is the one your roof still relies on.
There are jobs we turn down. If your shingles have another five winters in them we will say so and put a re-inspection date in writing rather than sell you a roof early. If the water in your house is coming up from the crawlspace we cannot help and will tell you which trade can. And if someone has quoted you a coating for a residential shingle roof, we would rather talk you out of it than match the price.
If you have a roofing project in Lacey, the fastest way to get a real number is a free on-site estimate. See every Lacey service we handle, check whether we cover Tumwater, WA and the rest of north Thurston County, or go back to the Lacey Roof Pros homepage to start. You can also reach us directly on (844) 511-2320.
Credentials
- License: Held in the specialty class of the contractor registration that chapter 18.27 RCW requires of anyone working here, filed with Labor & Industries in Tumwater. No roofing trade examination exists in this state, so the registration number is the thing to check: pull it up on the department's public lookup and read the bond, the liability certificate and any claims filed against it before you sign
- Insurance: Public liability and property damage limits several times the registration minimum, plus workers' compensation through the state fund. Ask the carrier to send the certificate to you rather than accepting one that arrives from us, and ask for it before the tear-off rather than after
- Association: Olympia Master Builders member, and through that chapter an affiliate of the Building Industry Association of Washington and the National Association of Home Builders
- Warranty: a written workmanship warranty naming every flashing, penetration and downspout tie-in by its location on the roof
How Lacey Roof Pros works
How a job with Lacey Roof Pros runs, start to finish
Site visit first, always. We measure, look at the real condition of the work area, and ask what you are actually trying to solve — then you get an itemized free estimate in writing with materials, scope and a realistic date on it.
Once the work starts, the same crew stays on the job until it is done. We protect the surrounding area, clean up daily, and tell you the moment something under the surface changes the plan, because the alternative is a surprise invoice and nobody wants that conversation. a written workmanship warranty naming every flashing, penetration and downspout tie-in by its location on the roof backs the finished work.
What we will not do
We do not quote a roofing job over the phone, take deposits before a written scope exists, or bid work we are not set up to do properly. If your project needs a different trade, we say so and point you at someone who does it well. Losing a job is cheaper than doing one badly in Lacey.
Where Lacey Roof Pros works and who we work with
Lacey, WA first, then the surrounding communities of north Thurston County: Tumwater, Yelm, Tenino, Rainier, Bucoda, Tanglewilde, Rochester, Grand Mound and more. Each of those has its own page with local detail rather than a copy of this one.
Work splits roughly between homeowners and commercial property — offices, retail, restaurants, apartment complexes and HOA boards across north Thurston County. Start with the Lacey services, the Lacey Roof Pros homepage, or just call (844) 511-2320.
Why Lacey Chooses Lacey Roof Pros
- ✓We follow every downspout to where it actually ends before quoting anything, because in this city the last stretch of the system is buried and nobody has looked at it since the house was framed.
- ✓We will not hang zinc strips at your ridge or specify bare copper or uncoated zinc, because everything shedding off a Lacey roof goes into the ground the city's wells draw from.
- ✓We do not sell coatings for residential shingle roofs. If you have been quoted one, ask the salesman what the film does that a new field of shingles would not do better and longer.
- ✓We ask you to open the crawlspace hatch before we set a ladder in winter. A fair number of the January ceiling stains we get called about begin under the floor rather than above the drywall.
- ✓Any quote that adds roof area carries a line about the drainage facility that area now has to reach, because the sizing tables in this city are keyed to square feet of roof.
- ✓Buried work and roof work are priced on separate lines so you can take one and defer the other. Most people take the roof first and wait on the trench, and that is usually the right order.
What Lacey Customers Say
Two other companies quoted gutters. These people dug down at the splashblock, showed me a trench packed solid with grit, and told me the gutters were fine. They fixed what was actually broken and charged less than either quote.
I wanted a hail claim. He walked me to the downspout, tipped out a wedge of granules and explained why an adjuster would call it age. Nobody enjoys hearing that, but he was right and he saved me filing something that would have been denied.
We added a covered patio and they were the only bidder who mentioned that the extra roof area had to go somewhere. New trench went in with the re-roof. Six months of winter and the ground by the foundation has stayed dry.
Called about a leak in January. He asked me to check the crawlspace first. It was groundwater, not the roof, and he told me who to call instead. Did not charge me a dime for the visit. Used them for the re-roof a year later.
