A referral service, not a roofing contractor
Reno Nevada Roofs connects homeowners in the Reno–Sparks area with independent roofers licensed by the Nevada State Contractors Board. We are not a licensed contractor under NRS Chapter 624 and we do not perform roofing work. After you submit the form, a partner C-15 / C-15a contractor inspects the roof, provides a contract and price, performs the work if you hire them, and obtains required permits.
Why Reno roofs fail differently than roofs in milder climates
The Truckee Meadows is a high-desert basin at about 4,500 feet, with large day-to-night temperature swings, strong sun, Sierra-driven wind, winter freeze-thaw at flashings, and foothill wildfire rules that many national “average roof” articles ignore.
Washoe County’s published construction design requirements list a 120 mph ultimate design wind speed for Risk Category II buildings and identify Washoe as a special wind region. The same table calls weathering “Severe,” requires an ice barrier above 5,300 feet, sets a minimum final roof snow design load of 29 psf, and lists a ground snow load of 43 psf at 4,500–5,000 feet for Risk Category II. At the Reno airport, NWS 1991–2020 normals show about 20.9 inches of snow and 7.35 inches of precipitation a year — modest in the valley, and often higher in the foothills. Those facts are why comparing more than one licensed bid matters more than calling the first name in a map pack.
What we match homeowners for
Repair, replacement, leaks, inspections, emergency drying-in, storm and insurance documentation, metal, tile, low-slope / TPO, and gutters. Each of those has its own explainer under roofing services.
How matching works
You submit the referral form. We review the request and check partner licenses at the official NSCB search. A licensed contractor contacts you, inspects, and bids. You decide whether to hire them. The contract is with that contractor, not with us. Read the longer version on How it works.
How to verify a Nevada roofing license
Before you sign anything, search the official NSCB license tool by business name or license number. Confirm the record is ACTIVE and that the classification is C-15 (Roofing and siding) and/or C-15a (Roofing). The company name should match the person or firm at your door. Our guide to choosing a licensed roofer walks through red flags and bid comparison.
Communities we cover
We refer homeowners in Reno, Sparks, and nearby Northern Nevada communities listed on our service-areas hub — including Carson City, Carson Valley, the North Valleys, Fernley, and Nevada-side Lake Tahoe towns. Each community page notes the permit office and local rules. Truckee, California is not a Phase 1 page.
“Roofing companies near me” — what that search actually shows
On Google, “near me” roofing searches usually open a map pack of contractors with shop pins. Reno Nevada Roofs does not have a public office or a Google Business Profile, and we do not pretend to. We are a referral service covering the Reno–Sparks area. If you want a map-pack contractor, you can still use those results — and you should still verify the license. If you want help getting matched, use the form.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from calling a roofer?
When you call a roofer directly, you are talking to one company that may also be selling its own replacement. Reno Nevada Roofs is a referral service. We introduce you to independent, Nevada-licensed contractors. The contract, price, and work are between you and that licensed roofer — not this website.
Do you charge homeowners?
There is no fee to submit the referral form. Any price you later see comes from the licensed contractor, not from this website.
Who performs the work?
The licensed contractor you hire performs the work. Reno Nevada Roofs does not send crews, sell materials, or climb roofs.
Who pulls the permit?
Under NRS 624.970, the residential contractor — not this website and not usually the homeowner — is responsible for obtaining required permits. See our permits guide for City of Reno, Sparks, and Washoe County notes.
