We have a large, single-story ranch house in Valley Center, CA. Bob Piva Roofing just completed replacing our roof. I was attracted to Piva because they have been in business a long time, and they are a family owned business. Brian Cahey was the point of contact for the sale and the project. Brian spent a lot of time helping us along the way, and he was responsive during the installation process. The thing I really liked was that Piva has its own employees who really seemed to know what they were doing, which is reassuring. Many thanks to Brian and to Bob Piva Roofing.

We have used Piva Roofing on 3 of our properties. The first property was a condo complex, a complete roof replacement. And Added skylights in 4 of the penthouse units It was a major job, came out perfect! No more leaks! It was done in a timely manor! 2nd and 3rd houses were all roof repairs, and again it was done in a timely manor. They have added 2 skylights as well. If you have a leak they will be on it quickly! I would highly recommend Bob and his crew. They are all very nice, trustworthy and very professional!

We are very pleased with the job Bob Piva did on our roof. We had a major leak after the most recent batch of heavy rains and needed it scheduled STAT. Brian was communicative and helped facilitate communication with our neighbor with which we share one wall. The work was scheduled quickly and done well, at what I thought was a fair price.

Bob Piva replaced our 25 yo cement tile roof approximately 10 years ago. They did an excellent and professional job replacing our large (5000 sq ft single story home + garage+ large skylight covered patio). with a US Tile roof. Work was done on time and cost was reasonable. Of 4 bids they were within 10% of the lowest. Since then we have had them come out three times, twice for a tiny flap of torch down than came loose in a large high water flow valley (poorly designed by previous owner) and once because, we thought our complex patio skylight flashing was leaking, yet the leak was from a cracked skylight installed by another company.
All three times they were super-responsive and quickly remedied the roofing issue. They were also kind enough to cover the cracked skylight to stop it from leaking until repaired 4 weeks later though it was not their responsibility. Brian and his team are great to deal and delivery a very high quality product at a fair price. Their workers and responsive, very pleasant and professional, and careful. We highly recommend them.

We had Bob Piva roofing do our complete roof back in 2004 and they did an excellent job. We recently had water leaking after the heavy rains and we called the company. The supervisor Marco sent 2 men out within 24 hours to assess the problem. They promptly fixed it. We highly recommend this company as being reliable and doing quality work.

We couldn't be happier with the overall experience we've had with Bob Piva Roofing. Brian is very friendly yet very professional. Very responsive to any and all questions. The workers were awesome and cleaned up every night before leaving. It's been raining almost every night the last two weeks since the roof was completed and no problems. The roof looks great. I will recommend Bob Piva Roofing to anyone needing a roof. Great job guys. Thank you Brian

Using Bob Piva again. Our first experience was wonderful. Bob came out, assessed the situation, gave us a reasonable quote and a start date. The job was done as promised, on time and per quote. The second time was equally great. We developed a leak above our kitchen window during heavy rainfall and it was having a negative affect on our drywall. We called the office and Bob Piva came out the next day and assessed the situation, gave us a quote and said that due to the heavy rain falls in the area he was running about 2 to 3 weeks out on repairs.
As promised, a crew of three did come out and were very efficient, and cared enough about my driveway apron to the point that they placed cardboard under the truck to prevent oil from reaching the surface. I hope that my roof will last a while, but if it doesn't and it leaks somewhere else, I won't hesitate to call Bob Piva Roofing again.

I just had my whole upper roof (over 1000 sqft) replaced by Bob Piva Roofing. It all went smoothly, finished on schedule, and came out as promised. I have a flat roof, which was tar and gravel and prone to leaks. Piva Roofing replaced it with a double torched down surface, which to me it is more functional and easy to maintain. Keith Sievers and Manuel brothers did a fantastic job of removing my old roof and installing the new one. Manuel has many years of experience in torched down roof installations and, after seeing his work, I can attest to his expertise. Piva Roofing is not inexpensive, but I am very happy with the quality of their work. Brian Cahey, the project comptroller, and Keith Sievers, the project superintendent, both are experts in the roofing business.
I would like to thank them all (Brian, Keith, Manuel and his two brothers), and Donna who would politely help me when I called the Piva office, for a job well done. If you need your roof replaced, specially flat roof, I'd highly recommend these guys.

While investigating the cost of putting new rain gutters on our house we discovered our roof was bad and didn't have much life left on it. I knew immediately who to call for a quote. Bob Piva Roofing! Brian Cahey came out and gave us a great quote. We signed the contract that day. Throughout the whole process the crew was professional and clean. On the second day of the project Escondido got an unprecedented amount of rain (almost 2 inches).
I was nervous because I didn't have shingles. But the crew had sealed the roof with waterproof paper and we didn't have any problems. They also repaired/replaced sections of rotted facia board and trim. I expected this to cost so much more than our original quote but the extra cost was minimal and looks fantastic. We are happy with our new roof. This company is wonderful. I would recommend them to everyone who needs a new roof.

I have had Bob Piva roofing in the back of my mind for several years. One of my neighbors had their roof replaced about 4 years ago and it was a stunning roof. I asked the owner who did your roof, and was told Bob Piva. At that time, we weren't ready for a roof replacement. 2019 has been a wetter than usual few months. We haven't had any leaks, but we had a 22 year old roof, that was in need of replacement.
The icing on the cake, was I saw a coupon for Bob Piva roofing and knew it was time. Brian came out to estimate the job and it was started right away. We did have to deal with a few sprinkles that made the job take longer, but we are extremely happy with their work. I would recommend them wholeheartedly.

Today our roof was repaired (luckily, still under warranty!) by Bob Piva Roofing. We are very pleased with the professional service we received, from our initial call to the company through the completion of the repair. The workmen arrived on time, assessed the problem right away, had all the materials needed and completed the work in a timely fashion. There was never any hassle; they stand behind their warranty!

My experiences with Bob Piva Roofing have been great! I have a rental home that needed some leak repairs, and had a crack in the skylight. They came right out and gave me estimate to fix everything and repaired the skylight without having to replace it! The top pane was cracked but the inner pane was still fine. So they caulked it, and saved me from having to get it replaced, for now. The rains came and neither the roof nor the skylight have leaked at all. I am very happy with their honesty, and the quality of work! I would definitely recommend this company!

Excellent service. When we had a leak in our roof -- installed by Bob Piva for the previous house-owner -- the owner came out immediately. Even though the problem was due to us (poorly-maintained trees had blocked a vent and caused the leak), he looked at the almost-expired 20-year warranty and sent two guys to fix it for free. The guys were friendly, polite, and cleaned the whole roof. I was amazed. Thanks Bob Piva Roofing!

Bob Piva roofing replaced my roof about 15 years ago. It's been rock solid, no leaks at all since (despite having 3 large skylights). I frequently have neighbors ask me who did my roof as their contractors were unable to get that much life out of their repair jobs. Just got another call today, so I thought I'd post this to let people know my experience with Piva roofing.

Piva came out promptly when I called about a leak that developed after the first heavy rainfall in Rancho Bernardo. They scheduled a repair, and there was another big rainfall immediately. They came out, made the repair, and we have had no problems since. They did a good job matching the 20 year old roof that they had installed originally. I am in the process of calling them back for another roof repair, elsewhere. Very happy with Piva.
