Overview
About Us
Guardian Roofing co-founders Matt Swanson and Lori Swanson have collectively worked in the roofing industry for more than 60 years and started the company in 2005. Guardian is well-known for their deep commitment to customer service and team of high-quality, professional contractors. The Guardian team serves thousands of customers across the Puget Sound region and is passionate about helping homeowners make their roof last for life. When customers choose Guardian Roofing, their experienced, trained contractor team spends as much time as each homeowner needs to understand the condition of their home, and the actions necessary to correct the problem. This often means utilizing maintenance and repairs whenever possible – rather than focusing homeowners solely on the purchase of a new roof when they may not need one. This commitment to honesty and integrity has helped the company grow and thrive, while gaining loyal customers across the Puget Sound Region.
*Contractors enrolled in GAF certification programs are not employees or agents of GAF, and GAF does not control or otherwise supervise these independent businesses. Contractors may receive benefits, such as loyalty rewards points and discounts on marketing tools from GAF for participating in the program and offering GAF enhanced warranties, which require the use of a minimum amount of GAF products. Your dealings with a Contractor, and any services they provide to you, are subject to the Contractor Terms of Use.
Customer Reviews
"Great company to work with. Hired guardian to do a few roof repairs and clean/treat my roof. They got everything done in one day. Crew was polite and left my property cleaner than when they arrived. Great business to work with."
"I was shopping for roof-cleaning service and I called Guardian Roofing; they were highly rated in the Snohomish County Best Pick Reports. Blake came out to give me an estimate. He carefully inspected my roof and told me it was in good shape. He went over the pictures he took while on the roof and showed me some very minor repairs needed. He seemed to be very honest and did not try to pressure me into purchasing anything that was unnecessary. Blake was friendly and courteous; he took the time to explain everything. He gave me confidence in the integrity and quality of the company. I signed up for yearly service. Blake is a great ambassador for Guardian Roofing!"
"Justin did a good job setting expectations doing what he could to manage costs. The team of four showed up every day early and worked very efficiently. They to pride in their work and we’re taking great care not to destroy foliage. One small mishap with a railing was resolve within 24 by Jose. He took time to personally come and fix the issue. They were all very accommodating and easy to work with! Follow up inspection by Carlos was very thorough and fixed a few over sites. Very honest and forthright with information and his work. Thanks Carlos! Carlos returned to do a finish job on a couple of items that were found. Fast, courteous, and professional. Great worker!!!"
