When Ernest Beck started Beck Roofing Company in 1957, he had only one employee, one truck, and a belief that when it came to a roof over their heads, people wanted quality workmanship. And he was right - 30,000 roofs and over 50 years of experience later, Beck Roofing has become one of the the most well known and highly respected roofing contractors in the Bay area.

Through the years, there have been a lot of changes. Ernest's son, Charles, took over the business in 1973, and runs the company along with his wife, Mary Lu Costa-Beck. And now another generation of Becks has joined the business. Brian, who graduated from Cal Poly in 2001, and Daniel, a recent Vanguard University alumnus.

Asphalt shingles

Report

Asphalt shingles possess an overwhelming share of the U.S. steep-slope roofing market and can be reinforced with organic or fiberglass materials. Although asphalt shingles reinforced with organic felts have been around much longer, fiberglass-reinforced products now dominate the market.

Metal

Report

Metal, primarily thought of as a low-slope roofing material, has been found to be a roofing alternative for home and building owners with steep-slope roofs. There are two types of metal roofing products: panels and shingles. Numerous metal panel shapes and configurations exist.

Wood shingles & shakes

Report

Wood shingles and shakes are made from cedar, redwood, southern pine and other woods; their natural look is popular in California, the Northwest and parts of the Midwest. Wood shingles are machinesawn; shakes are handmade and rougher looking. A point to consider: Some local building codes limit the use of wood shingles and shakes because of concerns about fire resistance.
