I recently hired Star to replace the flat commercial roof for an apartment building in Oakland (6,500 sq ft). I had an excellent experience from start to finish, and Im glad to leave a glowing recommendation for this business.First, Gelber, the owner, was referred to me by another roofer who I deeply respect and trust. That personal recommendation was spot on, and it meant a lot to me.Second, Gelber is extremely experienced and knowledgeable. He has excellent attention to detail and he takes a lot pride in the craft of roofing. As a result, he makes very good recommendations.Third, Gelbers commitment to quality carries over to the skill of his crew. They did an absolutely great job that fully delivered on the goals of the project. Gelber doesnt skip steps. He does it right, and in some cases he went above and beyond the original scope of work.Fourth, his pricing was reasonable. You might not get a rock bottom price, but its usually a mistake to go with the low bid anyway. Instead, its important to find a contractor you can trust, who does great work at a fair price. And this is what youll get with Gelber.When we walked around to inspect the old roof, Gelber pointed out many construction details especially things that the previous roofing contractor had done incorrectly, along with what he would do differently to improve it.We also took time to discuss the proposals we had received from other roofing contractors. Many of their recommendations were simply wrong. Gelber did a very good job of explaining his own recommendations, in a way that was helpful and educational.A new roof is a big investment, of course. But there are so many things I can point to that made this a great experience. Gelber was definitely the best person for the job, and Im very happy with the obviously high quality of his work.

On a tight time frame, the Star crew removed the old tar and gravel roof from our house and replaced it with a new more efficient torch down roof. They were careful to protect the foam insulation that we had previously installed on our roof and in fact enhanced it as part of the replacement process. Their professionalism and care was obvious throughout, including returning on their own initiative one night to spread plastic over the scraped roof to protect the interior of the house from a belatedly predicted potential rain storm. In short, they were tremendous.

Their reports are very descriptive. It tells you what they found and how to fix the problem at a very competitive cost.I also have used them to do work on the roof at my home. I am very pleased with the quality of work that is always performed. I will be calling them again when the next issue arises.

Gelber of Star Waterproofing came to evaluate my leaking balcony and was the only contractor who diagnosed the problem. He gave me a detailed quotation to fix the problems. He also noticed a problem with my roof and gave me another proposal to upgrade the ridge tiles and add more roof vents. His team did exceptional work on the roof problem and completed the work in one day. They were very efficient and cleaned up perfectly after. For the balcony we discovered a problem with a main beam where it had rotted from the leak. His team resolved the problem by removing the rot and splicing in a new support beam. This was done fairly on a T&M basis. After the work was completed I did get his team back to do a neater job on the finished painting etc. Gelber cooperated with no fuss. I would thoroughly recommend Sta Waterproofing for any balcony and roof work.

I recently had the pleasure of working with the team at Star Waterproofing for a comprehensive project involving both roof replacement and house repainting. From start to finish, they were nothing short of fabulous.The project had two main phases: replacing the roof and repainting the house. The team efficiently removed the old roofing, repaired any damage, and waterproofed the entire structure. Their recommendations were thoughtful and necessary, clearly not aimed at increasing the project scope unnecessarily.Moreover, they also waterproofed the sides of the house before painting, showcasing their exceptional attention to detail. Their daily cleanup was thorough, and they consistently worked with speed and consideration.When issues arose, the team handled them fairly and took full accountability, which was very reassuring. Overall, their efficiency, knowledge, and pleasant demeanor made the entire process seamless.I highly recommend the team at Star Waterproofing for their excellent service and professionalism.
