YEARS OF EXPERIENCE AS ONE OF THE MOST RELIABLE ROOFING COMPANIES IN SIMI VALLEY, CA

Re-roofing in Simi Valley requires specialized systems designed to handle the area’s intense Santa Ana wind events. We specialize in the installation of Tile, Composition Shingle, and Low-Slope roofing. For shingle applications, we recommend high-wind rated shingles (ASTM D3161 Class F or ASTM D7158 Class H) designed to withstand gusts of up to 130–150 mph. Whether you are in the Texas Tract or surrounding neighborhoods, our team handles the entire process—from the initial deck inspection required by the city to the final installation of fire-rated Class-A materials. We also ensure all new installations meet current Title 24 energy standards, which include “cool roof” requirements to improve your home’s efficiency.

Fire Protection & Wildfire Safety

CutAway_Tile-scaled CutAway_Comp-scaled During a re-roof, we prioritize “home hardening” by installing O’Hagin Fire & Ice® low-profile vents. These specialized vents are designed specifically for new installations to block dangerous embers from entering your attic during a wildfire while providing superior ventilation.

We conduct our Simi Valley Roofing business in a manner that elevates how roofing contractors are perceived by individual homeowners and commercial clientele alike. Customer service is paramount at GreatWay Roofing Company.

Is it Time for a New Roof? 5 Signs to Watch For

Curling, Cracked, or Missing Shingles: Visible damage is a clear warning that your roof’s protective layer is compromised and no longer shielding your home.

Granules in Your Gutters: If you find “sand” or heavy granule buildup in your gutters, it’s a sign that your shingles are reaching the end of their functional lifespan.

The Age Factor: Asphalt shingle roofs over 20 years old, or tile roofs with aging, brittle underlayment, are considered high-risk for sudden failure.

Interior Ceiling Stains: Water spots or yellowing on your ceiling indicate that water has already bypassed your roofing system and is damaging your home’s structure.

Cracked or Slipped Tiles: Strong winds and intense heat in Simi Valley can cause tiles to shift or crack, exposing the sensitive underlayment and damaging your home’s structure.

Great experience with Greatway Roofing. I highly recommend Greatway Roofing for your roofing project. Fantastic team. Met with Matt and he gave me a very thorough walk through of options for underlayment, repairs and replacement for my roofing project. Matt knows his stuff and identified details of the job that no other roofer pointed out to me and I interviewed over 20 contractors. Matt’s knowledge and Greatway Roofing’s lifetime workmanship warranty won me over even though the cost was slightly higher than some of the other estimates I received. You know the old cliche ‘You get what you pay for’. Your roof repair isn’t something you want to cheap out on if you want quality. The roofing team worked their behinds off in the unusually high October temperatures over 100 degrees here in Santa Clarita. Kudos to Emilio and the roofing laborers. Matt, Sean and Cindy all pulled their weight as well. Regular updates of project status were provided with photos and video. All the inspections and permits were pulled and completed with the city of Los Angeles who can be difficult to work with considering their work load. Thank you to Greatway Roofing for your excellent service and expertise. I would definitely recommend this roofing contractor/team to anyone in need of roofing work.

Everyone was very professional and on time. I am a real estate agent and had refered several clients to them in the past and they had all been happy with the results. My quote was fairly priced. Communication was excellent and the work was done in a reasonable amount of time. I will be using them again.

What a great experience. My old roof had given up the ghost, and I was on borrowed time. Matt from GreatWay came out and walked me through options. I liked his approach and company the most, so we went with them.

The price was great (as much as it can be for a roof, no small purchase), and the crew was really fantastic. They were professional and got the work done quickly. They had to put sheathing on my roof, since it’s old and didn’t have any underneath (!), and the whole project still only took 4 days.

For me, the best thing was that the crew cleaned up every day. The yard was clear, and there were no nails or debris hanging around. It’s a little thing that was really nice to see— it was really nice to go outside in the afternoon and not worry about stepping on anything/ having that peace to move around in the middle of a project.

I’d recommend this company to anyone.

GateWay did an excellent roof replacement.Everyone of the crew was professional & courteous. The job site was left completely clean each day, even after tear off. I would recommend them to any of my friends or family

I really appreciated Tim coming out and inspecting our flat roof for leaks that might be causing the dry rot under the eaves. Even though the roof looked fine, Tim caulked the area above the dry rot just in case. If we do decide to repair or replace the roof in the future, we’ll definitely be giving GreatWay Roofing a call.

This company is a class act and I am so pleased to have picked GreatWay Roofing who kept me informed thru email and sent photos as the project was moving ahead.
Great customer service, knowledgeable courteous workers and a satisfied customer says it all

Exceptional & organized. Every GreatWay team is performing efficiently. From the engineering bid, office updating videos, old roof removal, new wood facia, new roof installation and managing permits and final inspection. A+++++

We had an excellent experience with GreatWay Roofing. Tim came by to give us an estimate related to some potential fascia board replacement work (and some additional potential work). The company that is installing our new gutters referred us to GreatWay. After doing a thorough inspection, Tim explained that we didn’t need their services at this time. He is a super nice guy, and he explained everything in great detail. If we ever need roofing work done in the future we will call GreatWay Roofing first and I would recommend them to anyone!

It was a pure pleasure working with Tim & GreatWay Roofing!!! Tim is very attentive and just plain nice, plus his pricing was competitive. He has an excellent crew that did a great job, finished as projected, and were very communicative throughout the process. I highly recommend this company for your roofing needs.

I could not be more satisfied with the work done by this roofing company. From the initial underpayment to the final tile installation, every step of the project was handled with precision and care. Matt's communication and attention to detail were top-notch, and Marco and his crew were true professionals who delivered exceptional results.

We received several quotes for a new roof...Greatway's price was one of the least expensive. Aside from the cost, we decided to have them do the work because they seemed very honest and easy to work with. We had a tight schedule to get it done and Matt came through for us. Other companies were quoting 7 to 10 days and weren't sure they could complete it by our deadline. Matt and his crew completed the task in two days...Greatway is a great company to work with.

Matt and the team at Greatway roofing just finished today reproofing our home. They did a tremendous job. Matt did an excellent job with expectations and things to consider with our project. They started the project on time completed the project on time and there was no surprises. We received photos or a walk through of any issue or situation that arose. Communication with them and Matt's communication with other contractors was excellent. I would highly recommend them. Thank you, Matt and Greatway Roofing Team.

Thank you so much GreatWay Roofing for donating and replacing the roof of a cabin at Golden Heart Ranch. We are a ranch dedicated to improving the lives of special needs young adults and the addition of this roof means we can now have a sleep away camp. We could not have the cabin up and running without your generous donation! Everyone that came out to help was kind, professional and caring. You guys are awesome... thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
