Shamrock Roofing was founded in 2008, but like many businesses at the time, it faced challenges due to the recession. By 2010, the company was officially up and running, quickly building a strong reputation in the valley. Over the years, Shamrock Roofing has forged lasting partnerships with real estate professionals and property management companies, while also earning the trust of homeowners. Shamrock Roofing’s co-owners; Cindy Pater and Victor Alecio share the details about their business and tips for homeowners.

INVESTING IN YOUR ROOF
A well-maintained roof is one of the most valuable investments for homeowners and business owners. Beyond increasing resale value, it serves as the first line of defense against external damage, preventing leaks that could lead to mold growth and health issues.
WHAT ARE SOME SIGNS THAT A ROOF MAY NEED REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT?
Regular roof maintenance is key to avoiding costly repairs. Some signs that indicate it’s time for an inspection or repair include:
-
Tile Roofs: Broken or slipped tiles, cracks in mortar caps, and worn-out underlayment (typically lasting 25–30 years in Arizona).
-
Shingle Roofs: Loose or missing shingles, as well as heavy granule loss.
-
Flat Roofs: Buckling, cracking in rolled roofing, or bubbling and peeling on foam roofs.
Addressing these issues early can help prevent water intrusion and structural damage.
WHAT ARE THE BEST ROOFING MATERIALS FOR ARIZONA’S CLIMATE?
Arizona’s extreme heat requires durable roofing materials. We recommend:
-
Shingle Roofs: A 30 lb felt paper underlayment to withstand high temperatures.
-
Tile Roofs: An SBS 40 lb self-sealing underlayment, which offers superior protection against leaks. A single layer provides a 25–30-year lifespan, while an optional second layer extends it to approximately 40 years.
-
Flat Roofs: Foam roofing is the preferred option due to its seamless application, ability to expand and seal gaps, and added insulation benefits.
SHAMROCK'S COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITY
Beyond roofing, Shamrock is dedicated to giving back. They’ve contributed to numerous causes, including animal rescues, education initiatives, shelters, and children's hospitals. Additionally, Cindy and Victor support local real estate and property management professionals by sponsoring customer appreciation events, educational drives, veteran-focused golf tournaments, and toy drives for shelters and hospitals.
ROOFING TRENDS TO WATCH IN 2025
While gutters aren’t a new concept, they are becoming increasingly popular among Arizona homeowners. A common misconception is that gutters aren’t necessary due to the state’s low rainfall. However, they play a vital role in protecting a home’s foundation by redirecting water away from walkways and landscaping.
Another growing trend is solar roofing. Solar shingles, a recent innovation, offer a sleeker, lower-profile alternative to traditional panels while blending seamlessly into shingle roofs. The team at Shamrock Roofing stays ahead of industry trends by attending annual roofing conferences to keep up with the latest advancements.
