About Malarkey

Why We Install Malarkey

We’ve been installing Malarkey shingles across the South Bay since 2010. As a factory-certified Malarkey contractor, we’ve seen how their polymer-modified asphalt stands up to our hot summers and winter rains — from Eichler homes in Cupertino to Victorians in Willow Glen. Every job we do includes a workmanship warranty and a cleanup guarantee.

Malarkey’s rubberized shingles offer superior impact resistance and algae protection, which means fewer repairs and less water damage over time. We handle everything from roof replacement to insurance claims from start to finish. Our team knows the neighborhoods and the materials, so you get a roof built for San Jose’s climate.

Why Malarkey

Why Malarkey Works for the South Bay Climate

After 16 years under San Jose’s sun and rain, we know what holds up. Malarkey’s polymer-modified shingles handle our heat, fog, and sudden downpours better than anything else we’ve installed.

🛡️

Reflects heat with advanced granule technology, keeping your attic cooler during Willow Glen summers.

💨

Built-in polymer flexibility prevents cracking from our freeze-thaw cycles in the Santa Cruz Mountains.

🌡️

Class 4 impact rating stands up to hail and falling branches from Cupertino oaks.

📄

Algae-resistant formula stops black streaks on shady north-facing roofs in Los Gatos.

🌿

Fire-resistant core meets California’s strict wildfire codes for hillside homes.

🏘️

Lighter weight reduces structural stress on older Eichler flat roofs in Palo Alto.

What 'Malarkey Certified Installer' Actually Means

We're one of the few crews in San Jose factory-certified to install Malarkey shingles. That means we've passed their training on proper nailing patterns, flashing details, and warranty requirements. It's not a badge you buy — it's earned through consistent quality.

For you, this certification means your roof is backed by Malarkey's manufacturer warranty and our workmanship guarantee. We've installed Malarkey on Eichlers in Cupertino and Victorians in Willow Glen. Every job gets the same attention to detail, from tear-off to final cleanup.

Customer Voice

What San Jose Homeowners Say

★★★★★
We had our old Eichler flat roof replaced with Malarkey shingles, and the team at South Bay Roofing made the whole process seamless. The new roof not only looks sharp but has held up perfectly through two rainy seasons. Couldn’t be happier with the workmanship.

— Mike R., Cupertino

★★★★★
After a storm caused water damage to our Willow Glen Victorian, South Bay Roofing handled the insurance claim and installed a Malarkey roof that blends beautifully with the neighborhood. Their crew was professional, clean, and on time. Highly recommend.
