GAF Construction in Pomona, CA | Sycamore Contractors
We provide independent GAF roofing service across Pomona, from the pre-war bungalows near Lincoln Park to the 1950s tract homes off the 91768 corridor. What sets our GAF work apart here is simple: we know how these roofs behave on Pomona’s legacy skip-sheathing, low-slope additions, and wind-exposed gable ends. We’re not authorized or sponsored by GAF, and that’s exactly why homeowners call us at (877) 265-6284 for a straight read on whether to repair or replace. The free estimate tells you what you actually need, not what’s easiest to sell.
Why Pomona Residents Choose Us for GAF Service
Pomona’s housing stock is a patchwork of early-1900s Craftsman and Spanish Colonial bungalows near downtown, post-war tract homes from the 1950s and 60s, and newer infill throughout the 91768 corridor. Each generation of construction brings its own roof geometry, decking, and failure patterns. We’ve spent years working GAF in La Verne and across Pomona, handling systems from every one of those eras. Nate Calloway, our owner, grew up in Temecula’s Redhawk neighborhood and trained at Palomar College’s construction technology program before running crews across the region. His rule is the one we follow: do it right the first time, or you’ll do it twice in the July heat.
Because we’re a full-scope general contractor with roofing as a core trade, we don’t send a different crew for flashing work, siding tie-ins, or attic ventilation corrections. The same team that replaces your Timberline HDZ system handles the fascia, gutters, and any deck work under one scope. We stock GAF accessories and match color lines locally, so repairs in Pomona don’t wait on a distributor halfway across the county. Our Pomona service area covers all four ZIPs, including the older 91767 core where original redwood sill plates and 1920s concrete foundations complicate any roof-to-wall connection.

Common GAF Construction Problems We Solve in Pomona
- Granule loss and seal-strip failure on low-slope additions. Pomona’s mid-century homes frequently have additions with pitches too shallow for architectural shingles. Timberline HDZ installed on those slopes loses granules fast, and when the seal strip lets go, Santa Ana gusts lift tabs like playing cards. We match the product to the actual pitch, which sometimes means Liberty SBS or EverGuard TPO instead of forcing a shingle that was never designed for that geometry.
- Wind-driven tab creasing and blow-off on west-facing gables. Santa Ana winds don’t hit every Pomona neighborhood evenly. The west-facing gable ends of homes in Wilton Heights and around Lincoln Park take the brunt of it. We regularly find tabs creased at the nail line from wind flutter, which eventually breaks the shingle’s fiberglass mat and invites leaks. Re-nailing to current uplift requirements and adding ice-and-water at valleys stops the cycle.
- Sun-baked, brittle flashing at chimneys and valley transitions. Pomona’s hot, dry summers bake sealant until it cracks and separates on 1950s and 60s tract roofs. The first winter rain finds those gaps. We replace step flashing, re-bed counter-flashing, and repair valley transitions before the weep channels clog and water backs up under the shingles.
- Liberty SBS membrane seams blistering on older flat roofs. Many Pomona additions over unvented ceiling assemblies trap heat and moisture at the membrane. Liberty SBS seams blister and pull under those conditions. We identify the ventilation problem and fix the membrane together, because patching the seam without addressing the heat load means the blister comes back next summer.
- Second and third roof layers hiding skip-sheathing damage. Pomona’s pre-1950 homes often carry two prior shingle layers over original skip-sheathing. The deck gaps mean nails miss solid wood, and old leaks rot what’s there. We strip to the deck, replace what’s failed, and install the new GAF system to current code, not to what passed in 1965.
GAF Service in Pomona: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the thing about Pomona that changes how GAF roof work should be done here: the city sits at the eastern edge of Los Angeles County where the San Gabriel Valley meets the Inland Empire, and its buildable land is already developed. So unlike Temecula or Murrieta where new construction still happens, Pomona roof work—and GAF service in Claremont just west—is overwhelmingly re-roofs and tie-ins over existing structures. That means we are almost never laying a GAF system on clean, modern decking. We are peeling back layers to find original skip-sheathing, redwood sill plates, and unvented attic assemblies that older Pomona homes hide under a second or third layer of shingles. A homeowner in the Wilton Heights or Lincoln Park neighborhoods who calls about a small leak is often surprised to learn the root cause is 1920s framing that never anticipated modern uplift loads. The fix is not just new shingles. It’s tie-downs at the eaves, corrected ventilation, and flashing details that account for the actual framing underneath. Do it right the first time, because a patch on top of skip-sheathing is just rearranging deck chairs.
One Wilton Heights job sticks with us. A homeowner called after Santa Ana winds peeled back a run of Timberline HDZ tabs along the west-facing gable of a 1920s bungalow whose roof had two prior layers over skip-sheathing. We stripped to the deck, replaced the rotted sheathing, re-nailed to current uplift requirements, and installed a new Timberline HDZ system with ice-and-water at the valleys, closing a wind-driven leak before the first winter rain. That is the difference between a Pomona-specific GAF job and a generic reroof.
GAF Models & Products We Service in Pomona
We work with the full GAF residential and commercial lineup: Timberline HDZ architectural asphalt shingles, Timberline UHDZ and AS II for heavier profiles, Liberty SBS self-adhered membrane for low-slope applications, and EverGuard TPO single-ply for flat and near-flat commercial or residential sections. Our parts approach is OEM-first. We match GAF shingles and accessories to the actual pitch and deck rather than forcing an architectural shingle onto a low-slope addition where Liberty or TPO belongs. We keep common Timberline color lines and accessory components staged for quick Pomona turnaround. GAF sales & service is one of seven roofing manufacturer lines we carry, which means you get a product comparison, not a single take-it-or-leave-it shingle line.

FAQs – GAF Construction in Pomona
In most cases, no, and we will tell you that plainly. Pomona’s 1950s tract homes often already carry a second layer over skip-sheathing, and adding a third layer of Timberline HDZ compounds the weight and hides deck rot. We recommend stripping to the deck so we can inspect what is actually holding the nails. It costs more upfront and saves you from redoing a roof in five years. Call (877) 265-6284 for an exact read on your roof’s layer count.
Timberline shingles belong on pitches of 2:12 or steeper, and many Pomona mid-century additions fall below that. On those sections we spec GAF Liberty SBS self-adhered membrane or EverGuard TPO instead. Shingles on a low-slope Pomona addition will granule-loss, seal-strip fail, and let wind lift tabs. The product has to match the geometry. Call (877) 265-6284 if you are unsure whether your addition’s slope takes shingles or membrane.
Santa Ana winds hit Pomona’s west-facing gable ends with sustained gusts that flutter shingle tabs until the seal strip breaks and the tab creases at the nail line. Once the fiberglass mat creases, water follows. The fix is re-nailing to current uplift requirements, adding ice-and-water at valleys and eaves, and inspecting flashings after major wind events. A roof that survives one Santa Ana season intact was likely installed with those details from day one.
Warranty coverage depends on the installation, the deck condition, and whether the system was registered when installed. GAF’s coverage applies to the shingles, not to failed skip-sheathing, rotted decking, or ventilation defects underneath. If the deck fails, the warranty does not fix that. We register every GAF system we install and document deck replacement, ventilation, and uplift compliance so your warranty claim has a paper trail.
We repair first when the field shingles still have life and only flashings or a wind-damaged section failed. Full replacement is our recommendation only when decking has widespread rot or the seal strips have failed across the majority of the field. Our estimate will show you both numbers so you can make the call with your eyes open. Call (877) 265-6284 for a free roof inspection in Pomona.
