Al's Roofing & Gutters has been handling roofs and gutters around Santa Barbara for years, and the 4.4-star Google rating reflects a crew that generally gets the job done right. Owner Alfredo Almazan shows up in recent reviews as responsive and honest—one homeowner mentions he climbed up, inspected a 30-year-old concrete tile roof, and told them it didn't need replacement even though a sale was sitting right there. That kind of integrity matters. The crew tackled a full tear-off and re-roof in two days according to a 2024 review, handled permits, repaired rotted framing, and left the site spotless. They've done PVC low-slope work on apartment buildings and residential composition shingle replacements, so they're not locked into one system.
The handful of complaints are the usual jobsite friction—blocked driveways, loud music, a backed-into mailbox—nothing that suggests shoddy work, just the reality that roofing is noisy and disruptive. Rubi in the office gets praise for handling permits smoothly. If you need a straightforward roof replacement or gutter install and want a local outfit that won't upsell you, Al's is worth a call. Just make sure you talk through site access and work hours up front if you've got a tight driveway or work-from-home schedule.
