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!!!

Glendale Roofing Reviews From Homeowners and Businesses
Glendale is two cities as far as roofs are concerned. South of Olive you have some of the oldest housing stock in the West Valley, including genuinely historic homes near downtown with roof assemblies that have been altered several times over. North and west toward Arrowhead you have 1990s and 2000s tract housing that all reached middle age together. A roofer who treats those the same will get one of them wrong.

The other Glendale factor is commercial and institutional roof area: the Westgate district, the arena and stadium corridor, schools, and light industrial along Grand Avenue. Those are large low-slope roofs where the practical question is never "repair or replace" in the abstract, but which sections need attention this budget year. Reviews from Glendale tend to come from people who wanted a plan, not a pitch.
The roofs we actually see in Glendale
Historic Glendale holds shallow-pitch and low-slope roofs on homes old enough that the original decking is 1x6 plank rather than plywood, which changes how fasteners hold and how a tear-off has to be handled. The 1990s belt is heavy on architectural shingle now well past its Arizona service life, with concrete tile in the newer Arrowhead-area subdivisions. Commercially, Glendale runs to large modified bitumen, TPO and foam roofs with substantial rooftop mechanical equipment.
What damages them here
The West Valley catches monsoon outflow with a lot of dust in it, and Glendale roofs show the result in packed scuppers and grit-abraded coatings. Shingle roofs on the older shallow pitches shed water slowly, so wind-driven rain has time to work sideways under courses that have lost their seal. Older plank decking also means a leak left alone rots structure faster than it would over plywood.
We work throughout Glendale, including historic downtown Glendale, Arrowhead Ranch, the Westgate district, Sahuaro Ranch and Grand Avenue. For the full picture of what we do locally, see our Glendale 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 Glendale customers ask
My house is old enough to have plank decking. Does that change the job?
It does, and it should be priced honestly up front. Plank decking has gaps between boards, so it does not hold fasteners the way plywood does and often needs an overlay of sheathing before new underlayment goes down. It also means any rot found during tear-off is structural rather than cosmetic. We check decking condition during the inspection so this is not a surprise discovered on day two.
Can you maintain a commercial roof rather than replace it?
That is usually the better spend. A maintenance program — clearing drains, resealing penetrations, patching before water gets into the insulation, and recoating on schedule — routinely doubles the life of a low-slope roof. Our commercial roof maintenance page explains what a program covers and what it does not.
