Why First Tier

What makes us different.

01
Extended Warranties on Your Entire Exterior Shell
Most contractors warranty one surface for 2–5 years. We warranty your roof up to 30 years, windows up to 20 years, and stucco up to 20 years against leaks — because we’re certified to install all of them ourselves.
The only company in the Bay Area that can offer this →
02
Zero Subcontracting. Our Crew, Your Home.
We never hand your project off. The same certified team that shows up for your inspection is the team that installs your roof, your siding, and your windows — with direct accountability at every step.
In-house installation on every project →
03
Veteran & Family Owned. Built on Integrity.
We started First Tier Exterior because Bay Area homeowners deserved more than poor communication and subpar work. As a veteran- and family-owned company, our name is on every project — and we mean it.

“First Tier exceeded our expectations from start to finish. Same crew throughout, communicated clearly, showed up on time, and the workmanship is exceptional. The warranty they offered on our entire exterior shell was unlike anything else we were quoted.”

★★★★★

“Had our James Hardie siding installed and it looks incredible. What stood out was the fact that no subcontractors showed up — ever. The team they sent was the same team from day one to final walkthrough. Rare in this industry.”

Sarah L.

★★★★★

“Called after a storm and they came out the same day to assess and tarp. The whole process — insurance claim, replacement, cleanup — was handled professionally. Would not hesitate to recommend to any Bay Area homeowner.”
