Cameron was fantastic to work with! I spoke with him about getting a roof inspection done, and from the start, he was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly easy to work with. His customer service is top-notch, and he genuinely goes above and beyond to make sure you feel taken care of. Highly recommend Cameron and American Roofing & Waterproofing LLC—if you need someone you can trust, Cameron is definitely the guy to call!!!
ARCADIA · MARICOPA COUNTY
Arcadia Roofing Reviews From Camelback Homeowners
Arcadia is the rare Phoenix neighborhood with a mature tree canopy, and that single fact changes its roofs more than anything else. The old citrus groves and the grapefruit and eucalyptus that replaced them drop constantly onto roofs that were never designed for that much organic debris. Valleys pack, scuppers block, and the debris holds moisture against the roof surface long after the rain has stopped.

The other Arcadia factor is remodeling. Very few original 1940s and 50s ranch homes here are still original: they have been added to, opened up, and re-roofed in stages by different contractors over decades. That leaves roofs where two or three systems meet at transitions nobody planned as a whole. Reviews from Arcadia customers tend to describe someone finally treating the roof as one assembly instead of a series of patches.
The roofs we actually see in Arcadia
Original ranch homes with low-slope and shallow-pitch roofs, many carrying decades of accumulated coatings and overlays. Substantial tile on the larger rebuilds and newer construction, and a great deal of flat roof area on the contemporary additions the neighborhood is known for. The recurring feature is the transition — flat meeting pitched, old meeting new, one contractor meeting another.
What damages them here
The canopy is a mixed blessing. Shade genuinely slows the heat aging that destroys underlayment elsewhere in Phoenix, but the debris load is the highest in the city and blocked drainage is the leading cause of leaks here. Monsoon wind through mature trees also brings branches down onto tile, and a single cracked tile above a valley concentrates water exactly where you least want it.
We work throughout Arcadia, including the Camelback corridor, Arcadia Proper, Arcadia Lite, the canal path and Ingleside. For the full picture of what we do locally, see our Arcadia roofing page.

I had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Jose Ernesto Alvarez at American Roofing and Waterproofing. Jose is a baller at what he does, extremely knowledgeable, professional, honest, and genuinely great to work with. From the beginning, Jose took the time to actually educate me about my roof instead of just trying to sell me something. He explained what he was seeing, what needed to be addressed, why it mattered, and what my different options were. Roofing can be confusing when you don’t deal with it every day, but Jose made the entire process easy to understand and made sure I felt confident about the decisions I was making. What impressed me most was his knowledge and attention to detail. You can tell he really knows roofing and takes pride in doing things the right way. He answered all of my questions, communicated throughout the process, and never made me feel rushed or pressured. I felt like I was dealing with someone who actually cared about the quality of the work and making sure I was taken care of. The roof turned out amazing, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Everything was handled professionally, and the quality of the finished product speaks for itself. If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, easy to communicate with, and will actually take the time to explain what your roof needs, ask for Jose Ernesto Alvarez at American Roofing and Waterproofing. He did an incredible job, and I would absolutely recommend him to friends, family, or anyone needing roofing work. 10/10 experience. Jose is the man!

Questions Arcadia customers ask
My roof is under trees. How often should debris be cleared?
Twice a year at minimum in Arcadia, and before monsoon season without fail. Debris in a valley or a scupper is not just untidy — it dams water and holds it against the roof surface, which is how a sound roof develops a leak. It is the cheapest roofing work you will ever pay for and it prevents the expensive kind.
My house has been added onto several times. Is that a problem?
It is the most common Arcadia situation and it is manageable, but it needs to be assessed as a whole. Each addition brought its own roof system, and where two systems meet is where water gets in. We document every roof area separately, then tell you which transitions are actually at risk rather than quoting a blanket replacement.
