Acme Roofing Co. provides a variety of roofing types, including composition shingle, modified bitumen, built-up asphalt, ridged roofing, single-ply thermoplastic membranes, slate, terra-cotta, metal or a combination of materials. Fluid-applied systems consist of installing a liquid urethane in multiple coatings over a newly installed ACX plywood base, resulting in a non-skid, colored, waterproof and durable walking surface.
PVC membrane systems are installed over an ACX plywood base. All roofs require regular inspection and periodic maintenance to achieve a long-term service life and minimize the chance of leakage problems in the future. Owners should not allow a nuisance leak to persist and develop into a major problem, degrading insulation and causing mold or dry rot and damaging the roof assembly.

Contact us today to schedule a consultation, and let us show you how an Acme Roof can enhance the value and beauty of one of your most important investments - and give you peace of mind for years to come, no matter what Mother Nature has in store.
Established in 1923, Acme Roofing Company is a recognized leader in providing reroofing solutions for residential and commercial properties throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. Locally owned, the company was managed for more than 30 years by John Dissmeyer, President, and David Dissmeyer, Vice President, grandsons of the firm's founder, Henry Dissmeyer.
A roof comprises two or more layers of materials and is never premade or premanufactured. Rather, each roofing layer is painstakingly laid by hand in a series of detailed, technical steps. These layers must accommodate the contours of the roof and the environment around the structure. A successful installation begins and ends with the services of a professional roofing contractor.
I would like to take this opportunity to compliment you on the quality of the workmen you have working for you. Over the years, as a property manager, you have done several jobs for me and the thoroughness of your work has always been evident. Thanks you again for a very pleasant experience. Acme's team was excellent for my husband and I a few years ago.

I am a happy customer of ACME Roofing. The whole discussion was seamless thanks to the COVID. Most of the communications were done through emails and phones. They gave me a good price and the additional work to fixed up rotten wood were also reasonable. There has been no surprises. The roof was beautifully done and I also has a roof vent which was suggested by them. I was there everyday to see the work while it was in progress and even though I was not an expert I saw that they were doing the job right. There were some complaints from the neighbor about the debris that flew over. I emailed

Acme Roofing has been around for generations. My Grandfather used them for all his roofing needs with a number of properties and knew the Founder. We needed to have shingles, gutters and a drain pipe put on our house. We called the office and their receptionist couldn't have been any nicer with setting up an appointment. Dave came out for an estimate that was quite fair. He sent out an exceptional crew with foreman Alex and they were all attentive to detail. Everything they promised was done and right on schedule. Dave stopped by a few times to check on everything and ensure that we were happy

I had a leaking light-well that probably had not been addressed since the house was built 100 years ago. These guys completely gutted the space down to the wood, upgraded the drain, and reinstalled modern roofing materials. They even put asphalt shingles up the sides behind the siding to insure waterproofing. They arranged plumber and all details.
Can I call a roof install sexy?
Hard working, very professional and friendly crew who work clean. I have no doubt it will not leak again in 30 years.
Can't go wrong with these guys.

Acme Roofing was recommended to us by a neighbor who was very pleased with their work. David Dissmayer, the owner, did a thorough examination of our roof which had not been repaired or replaced for 11 years. His estimate was fair, and he explained everything that he would do to repair the deteriorating edges, replace missing shingles, and apply silicone to the part of the roof that wasn't shingles. He and his crew were excellent! They showed up on time; cleaned up thoroughly, and finished in 3 days. David was very creative about replacing shingles that had faded in color by borrowing

Acme's team was excellent for my husband and I a few years ago. The Owner David personally walked us through roof top analysis and cost breakdown. Work done fastidiously, clean up, even 2 free return re-inspections and checked & fixed after my neighbors roofer did some damage. Support union companies!

I would like to yelp about Acme Roofing Company. This January and February 2017, during the weeks of heavy rain, there was water entry into our rental property causing the hardwood floor to buckle. Numerous contractors came to take a look at the problem but only Dave Westcott of Acme Roofing Company who was able to figure out what was happening. He proceeded to estimate the repair, schedule the work and get it done in a reasonable time frame. I am so thankful that I chose Acme Roofing Company. Other contractors would have let me pay them to do a bad job but I got a first-class job for my investment

I'm a retired contractor, coming from a family of contractors, so I know what they go through when trying to keep customers satisfied while getting the job done.
I'm also a renter here in San Francisco. Our landlord recently hired Acme to redo the roof on our apartment. Since we're "just tenants", there's no real reason for any contractors to go out of their way to treat us special. We're not the ones paying them, after all.
But Acme isn't your usual contractor. They have been incredibly careful and considerate about every aspect of the work they are

I have used Acme Roofing since I bought my house in 2002. Had dealt with 4 roofers at Acme and all but one man (first name begins with a C) were superb: customer service was good, response time was prompt, all my concerns put at ease, worked efficiently, cleaned up after work was completed, listed the recommended work and they were done. I asked for photos before and after, and my request was granted. The most recent roofer, David Dissmeyer, is a pleasure to work with. He responded when I complained about Mr. Roofer C not returning my calls and had an attitude. David was prompt, straight to the

We had 3 skylights replaced. I assumed this would be a horrible project as the skylights are in a room that was added on to our house by the previous owner. Every time we have any repairs/work done in that room it turns out poorly. ACME was perfect - the job was done in less time than estimated. The workers cleaned up EVERYTHING. This was 2 days before Thanksgiving & all I could see was a big mess for the family dinner. EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT. Great customer service, on time delivery, great clean up & all the "junk" was hauled away.

I am 100% satisfied with Acme and I love Dave. He's super knowledgable and very forthright. He comes by when his guys are on the job, climbs up on the roof and personally checks out the work. He'll take you right up there if you have the nerve and show you what needs to get done. He knows the business and you get an excellent job. No BS. His guys have been with him a long time, are very experienced and super sweet too. I love this company. They are old school quality and service. Dave did my roof in 09 and it's still going strong.
NOTE: This company has THE BEST response time and

So here I am on a rainy day, cozy in my dry home, looking up at my skylights and thinking warm thoughts of the roofing company that has been taking care of both of my roofs for 30 years. Well, a review for Acme is way overdue.
They have detected leaks, done small maintenance jobs, nicely negotiated a joint gutter with neighbors and when needed did 2 complete re-roofing jobs. The owner, David Dissmeyer, has always responded quickly and with unusual sensitivity to all of my concerns, which were many. I have found that many other companies in the trades will often send out some polite educated

Talked to a nice gentleman who asked me 50 questions about who else had given me estimates and how much they were and then told me that they weren't interested. I asked for advice on would be good and could be interested and he gave me none. Very asymmetric information flow. Not an overall great experience.

Acme scheduled roof inspection is what really sold me. They came back to make sure the roof was still in the right condition as it should be. Also they took the time to explain the benefits of having the new roof put in verses just telling me that its NEEDED! Overall its was great working with Acme Roofing.
