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!!!

Sun City Roofing Reviews From Retirement Homeowners
Sun City is the oldest active-adult community in the Valley, and its roofs are unlike anything in the newer suburbs. These homes went up in the 1960s and 70s with low-slope roofs, and most have been coated, recoated or foamed several times since. What is on the roof now is often a layered history that nobody has documented, and understanding that history is most of the diagnostic work.

It also has to be said plainly: Sun City residents get targeted by roofing sales operations more than anyone else in the metro. Homes are single-story and easy to inspect, budgets are fixed, and a persuasive stranger at the door can do real financial damage. A very large share of the honest work here is a recoat costing a fraction of a replacement, and telling someone that is the whole job.
The roofs we actually see in Sun City
Predominantly low-slope roofs on 1960s-70s single-story homes: original built-up assemblies, later modified bitumen overlays, and spray polyurethane foam applied at various points since the 1980s. Foam that has been recoated on schedule can still be in good condition after decades. Foam that has not been recoated in fifteen years is a different situation entirely, because once UV opens the surface, water gets into the foam itself.
What damages them here
Sun and time rather than dramatic weather. UV is what destroys a foam or coated roof here, and the failure is gradual and invisible from the ground until the surface chalks and cracks. Monsoon rain then finds those openings. Because the roofs are low-slope, drainage matters enormously and a slightly ponding area will always be the first place to fail.
We work throughout Sun City, including the original Sun City core, Sun City West, the Lakes area and Bell Road corridor. For the full picture of what we do locally, see our Sun City 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 Sun City customers ask
Someone told me I need a whole new roof. Is a recoat really enough?
Very often it is. If the foam or membrane underneath is dry and sound, a recoat restores the UV protection and buys another decade for a small fraction of a replacement. The test is whether moisture has already tracked into the assembly — a probe or infrared scan answers that. Anyone quoting a full replacement without checking that first is guessing, or worse.
How do I check that a roofer is legitimate?
Ask for the AZ ROC license number and look it up yourself; ours is 325294. Ask for the findings in writing with photographs before any money changes hands. And be wary of anyone who needs a decision today — a roof that has lasted fifty years is not going to fail this afternoon.
