When it comes to new commercial construction, Rainier roofing and foundations welcomes comparisons to everyone from local roofers to out-of-state contractors. Multiple factory certifications from leading manufacturers like Duro-Last, Carlisle and Environmental Roof Components(ERC) attest to our wide acceptance within the industry. We lead the pack in our ability to truly customize a roofing solution consisting of high-quality materials installed up to code.
Rainier roofing and foundations is a cutting-edge contractor with up-to-date knowledge of newer roofing materials. For example, we understand how to successfully integrate a new commercial roof with a solar installation. We also know about the latest building code updates.
When roofing work is completed by an out-of-state contractor, a natural question comes up: “What happens when there’s a problem?” A lot is at stake because a new commercial roof has a lifespan measured in decades. Contractors from far away that have no problem sending out a full crew to install a new roof may be slow to respond when there’s a leak, storm damage or a warranty claim.
Fortunately, Rainier roofing and foundations is a local roofing company dedicated to serving you long-term. We’ll be there to properly complete your new roof from start to finish, and we’ll be there for you, year-after-year. If there’s ever a leak, we’ll be there for you, and when you need routine maintenance, we’ll be there for you as well.
Although a commercial roof is a substantial investment, a high-quality installation provides essential protection to your building and everyone who occupies it. The only accurate way to look at the real cost of a roof is by looking at total costs throughout its entire lifespan. Don’t accept a cut-rate bid from a contractor who might send inexperienced subs to your site. A poorly installed roof may look good at first, but the problems that develop later will prove costly.
The right alternative is Rainier roofing and foundations, where you can count on experienced employees working under the close supervision of our Vice President of Operations.
Since the 1970s, we’ve been solving commercial roofing challenges for building owners, developers and property managers. Your project stands on solid ground when you can tell your investors that you’ve hired a highly capable roofing contractor like Rainier roofing and foundations.

As a full-service roofing contractor, we also remain ready to serve you after your new roof is in place. Call on us for routine roof inspections, maintenance, emergency repairs and warranty work.
As a factory-certified contractor, Rainier roofing and foundations is authorized to offer its customers the very best warranties in the business. For example, the GAF Golden Pledge Warranty covers both labor and materials more thoroughly than any other warranty in the residential roofing industry. There’s a 50-year warranty on architectural shingles and a 25-year warranty on labor.
As a certified roofing contractor, we are also authorized to offer a number of transferable warranties from major manufacturers. Such warranties offer extra value if you think you might sell your home in the future.
To assist our residential customers, we’re committed to making the insurance claims process go as smoothly as possible. At Rainier roofing and foundations , we use the same software that the insurance company does, which allows us to properly format a claim. This often speeds up the process by the insurer and it helps you get appropriate upgrades in a residential roof replacement.
It is important to avoid claims processing using nothing more than a general estimate from a claims adjuster who is not a roofing professional. Such an individual often lacks the expertise to understand the true scope of roof damage. Sometimes, an insurer uses a “program contractor” who mainly caters to the insurer’s interests. By contrast, our estimating system and roofing expertise combine to get you the roofing work all homeowners need and deserve.
