Dunlap Roofing

What Dunlap Roofing does

Dunlap Roofing LLC is a privately held, family-owned roofing contractor serving residential and commercial customers across Mendocino County, California. Founded by Stephen Dunlap in 1998 on the Mendocino Coast (Fort Bragg) and expanded inland to the Ukiah Valley in 2004 when Blaine Dunlap joined, the company operates two physical offices — one in Fort Bragg (32301 Pearl Drive) and one in Redwood Valley (948 Road N) — with separate phone lines for each territory. The company employs approximately 12 people and is positioned as a premium local provider rather than a volume contractor, emphasizing long-tenured steady employees in lieu of day labor and BBB A+ accreditation (License #806498).

The company's core service portfolio spans new roof installation, re-roofing, repair, maintenance and tune-ups, seamless gutter and downspout fabrication (made on-site with pre-coated aluminum stock), Velux tube skylight installation, rigid foam insulation, deck waterproofing, and green roofing/decking. Technical differentiation is concentrated in craft processes rather than proprietary technology: a "skip sheathing" method that strips wood roofs, installs 5-ply 1/2-inch CDX plywood hand-nailed with galvanized #8 nails, and re-roofs with composition shingles to achieve higher shear strength; a liquid-applied synthetic rubber (MCPU two-component polyurethane) self-leveling membrane for flat roofs; Duro-Last and Carlisle 0.080 mil TPO membrane systems for commercial flat roofs; and specialized techniques for clearstory window sealing and earthquake strengthening of historic buildings (as demonstrated on Fort Bragg Town Hall).

The business model is direct-to-consumer professional services with quote-based pricing for full re-roofing projects and defined minimums for repair work ($300 minimum service charge, $90 per man-hour, $400 minimum for jobs exceeding one man-hour; most tune-ups under $1,000). Customer acquisition runs through free visual inspections, phone calls, website forms, an active Facebook page, a content-marketing blog with Mendocino-specific SEO, radio commercials, and word-of-mouth referrals. Revenue is generated across four primary streams — new roof installation, repair, maintenance/restoration (including Iron Sentry liquid rubber coatings), and gutter/downspout hardware — with a hybrid mix of small distributed residential jobs and episodic commercial anchor projects (Fort Bragg Starbucks, Laytonville Chevron, Community First Credit Union, Fort Bragg Town Hall).
