Get roofing quotes in Long Beach
It is three multiple-choice questions, the address of the roof, and how to reach you. Then up to three Long Beach contractors quote it themselves. No cost, no appointment made on your behalf.
Start here
It takes about a minute.
Your request is in.
We are matching it now against roofing contractors working in Long Beach and the surrounding area.
- Today, usually within the hour. The first contractor calls or texts the number you gave us. ASAP requests go out first.
- Up to three of them, no more. We cap it at three so you can compare without your phone melting.
- They come and look. Estimates are given after somebody has been on the roof, not over the phone.
- You decide, or you do not. There is nothing to cancel and nothing to pay us.
If you do not hear anything today, check your voicemail and spam folder — contractors often call from a mobile number.
Three steps, about a minute
The whole thing is a form and a routing rule. What happens after it is contractors, on the phone, today.
Answer three questions
What kind of home it is, when you want the work done, and how you are hoping to pay. Then the address, and how to reach you. That is the whole thingvolved. No essays.
Matched to nearby contractors
Independent local companies, chosen on where they work and what they specialise in. Emergencies go out first.
Real numbers, then your call
Contractors contact you directly and quote after seeing the roof. There is no fee and nothing to cancel.

Three, and no more. Enough to compare properly, few enough that your phone stays usable.
Not sold as a list. Your information goes to the contractors quoting your job, and to nobody else.
Licensed and insured. Checked before a contractor can receive requests.
It costs you nothing. The contractors pay for the introduction. There is no bill at any point.
Before you start
I rent. Can I use this?
Only the owner can approve roofing work. If you are renting, the fastest route is to send this to your landlord or property manager rather than gathering quotes nobody can act on.
Do you handle commercial buildings?
We do. It is a different set of contractors — commercial and low-slope work is a separate trade from residential re-roofing — so answering the property question accurately matters.
How much deposit is normal?
A third at most, and never the full amount. Pay the balance when the job is finished and you have walked it. Some states cap the deposit by law.
Can I stay in the house while it is done?
Yes, though it is loud, and things will fall off shelves in the garage. Move cars out of the driveway and take anything fragile off the walls of the top floor.
Are you a roofing company?
No. Lighthouse Roofing & Exteriors of Long Beach is a free matching service. We do not hold a roofing licence, we do not employ crews, and we never come to your house. We pass your request to independent local contractors who do the work and who you hire directly.
Should I take the cheapest quote?
Only if it is the same roof. Most large gaps between quotes are scope gaps. Ask the cheapest contractor which of the other quotes items they have left out, and why.
Why homeowners use a matching service
The search results are an auction
The top of a search page is whoever bid most this morning, not whoever is nearest or best. Being first in an advert says nothing about the roof.
You stay in control
You hire the contractor directly, on your terms. We are not a party to the contract and we take no cut of the job.
Licence and insurance checked first
Contractors have to give us a state licence number and current liability and workers compensation cover before they can receive requests. Verify it yourself too.
It costs you nothing
Contractors pay for introductions. You pay nothing at any point, and we would rather say that plainly than bury it.
