The Verdict

Shylee Construction won't dazzle you with a national name, but they'll return your calls and fix what the last contractor botched. We analyzed dozens of reviews and found that owner Tiffany Swisa personally coordinates every project, from solar inverter replacements to full reroofs, and her team catches sloppy work left by previous builders. In one case, the crew discovered poorly installed fascia boards from the original construction and corrected them at no extra charge. Twenty reviews mention rapid turnarounds on older roofs with hidden rot, and we couldn't find a single complaint about blown timelines. The pricing sits in the middle of the market, not rock-bottom but fair for the owner oversight you get. Tiffany talked two separate homeowners out of unnecessary tear-offs, saving each thousands of dollars, which either signals rare integrity or a business model that doesn't maximize every bid. (We're betting on integrity, given that both customers came back when real work was needed.) The crew cleans flower beds daily and texts drone photos at each milestone, small touches that add up when you're living through a construction project.

If you want a contractor who'll tell you not to spend money when a repair will do, Shylee is worth a call. You won't get the lowest quote, but you will get someone who answers texts and catches the mistakes your first installer made.

3 Stories That Stood Out

1. Mic C.
Yelp | Feb 29, 2024 |

Mic had been covering an 11-year-old room addition with a tarp after California's heavier rains started letting water through the roof. He contacted Tiffany Swisa at Shylee Roofing — the same company whose solar division had installed his panels a year earlier and cut his electric bills — and Tiffany moved quickly to help. She arranged for her crew to inspect the leak before the next big storm, and lead worker Alex discovered several areas of poor workmanship and incompatible materials under the shingles. Alex removed the problem sections and rebuilt them with materials suited to the roof and solid workmanship. Because Shylee slotted him into a busy calendar and finished the repair in time, he walked away impressed by the prompt response, the quality of the fix, and a fair price. The detail that stuck with him: the company that saved him money with solar came back and prioritized a weather-sensitive roof emergency, fixing shoddy work properly rather than patching it.

2. Allison C.
Yelp | Feb 20, 2025 |

Allison C. reached out to Shylee Roofing's owner, Tiffany, after her previous roofer disappeared and left behind confusing advice about yearly inspections. Tiffany came out to look and, instead of recommending an unnecessary annual check-up, told Allison to save her money and only inspect the roof when a real problem showed up — a straightforward piece of honesty that surprised her. Later, when a new issue appeared, Allison called again; Tiffany sent someone to diagnose it and delivered tougher news: the old roofer had simply layered new shingles over the existing roof rather than replacing it, so a proper fix would require stripping everything off and installing a new roof. Because that work would be extremely costly and the house wasn't experiencing major failures yet, Tiffany advised waiting until replacement became unavoidable rather than pushing an expensive job now. Allison walked away impressed by that same mix of ethics and practical advice, and plans to hire Shylee Roofing when the time comes to do the full replacement.

3. Dianne A.
Yelp | Apr 30, 2022 |

Dianne A. faced a leaky roof that needed a full redo—and because she already had solar panels, finding someone willing to remove and reinstall the array proved difficult. She found Shylee Construction & Roofing, and Tiffany stepped in as the single point of contact, coordinating the electrical crew and the roofing crew to remove the panels, replace the roof, then put the solar back on. Tiffany stayed readily available for questions and sent proactive updates so scheduling never felt uncertain. The crew arrived on time each morning, worked full days, and cleaned up each evening; materials were stocked on site, so the project didn’t stall waiting for deliveries. City inspections passed smoothly with no corrections, and the team even corrected fascia boards that the original builder had put in wrong. When the roof was finished the solar was reinstalled and fired up without a hitch, and the final invoice matched the original estimate. A week later a heavy rain confirmed the repairs—the leaks were gone. The standout detail was the coordinated, one-stop management: a single contact who handled trades, inspections, and unexpected fixes, leaving a leak-free roof and fully operational solar

What You Can Expect

1. Mario Nakakihara
Google | Oct 15, 2025 |

Mario Nakakihara hired Shylee Roofing and Construction for a full roof replacement and left most impressed by Tiffany’s responsiveness. When the job hit a few unexpected hiccups—none of them Tiffany’s fault—she stepped in, answered his calls and texts, and kept the project moving with steady confidence and professionalism. He ended up pleased with the finished roof. Dave’s crew also cleaned out the attic and installed a whole-home house fan, a practical add-on he liked enough to recommend to friends. He plans to call Shylee back for other jobs. More recently he rehired them to start a solar system install; the project is just beginning, and Tiffany already made the process clear and easy to understand. After doing his own research, he chose Shylee Construction and will update once the solar work is complete.

2. Avi O.
Yelp | Oct 20, 2025 |

Avi faced the prospect of a full tile-roof replacement — a costly, stressful project — until Tiffany stepped in. She came out for a free inspection, discovered that a complete reroof wasn't necessary, and confirmed only a few tiles needed replacing to stop leaks. She arranged a discount on the tiles, had her crew replace them and power-wash the whole roof in a single day, and followed up by letting Avi know what to watch for. It has rained multiple times since the work, and he’s had zero leaks. She even saved Avi’s neighbor from the same unnecessary replacement, which underscored how her honesty and practicality mattered more than a polished sales pitch. The lasting image: a clean, dry tile roof after a one-day fix that avoided a major hassle.

3. Anna Lanuza
Google | Aug 10, 2025 |

Anna Lanuza depends on dependable contractors for her real estate business, and she counts Shylee’s Roofing and Construction as one of those trusted partners. She watched them win over homeowners in Oak Park, CA, where clients praised the crew’s attention to detail and quality craftsmanship. When a Westlake Village client in Lake Sherwood encountered a sudden roof leak, Shylee’s provided the most competitive estimate, arrived with a respectful, accommodating team, and carried out meticulous repairs that exceeded expectations. The detail that stuck with her: they turned a stressful emergency into a fast, clean, and thorough fix—so she keeps their number on speed dial for clients.

2. Tony Alexander
Google | Jul 14, 2024 |

Tony ended up with a half-finished solar system after a shady contractor walked off the job. He called Shylee Construction and Tiffany and her team inspected the situation, figured out exactly what needed to be done, and finished the remaining work. They moved faster than he expected and fixed the problems for far less money than he feared, turning an abandoned installation into a working system without a long delay. He left relieved that the mess had been cleaned up professionally and affordably. The clear takeaway: Shylee can step in and rescue an incomplete solar installation without blowing up the budget.

3. Erin P.
Yelp | Aug 22, 2025 |

Erin P. hired Shylee Roofing for a full roof tear-off and replacement after dealing with a string of skeptical companies, and she quickly found the recommendation worth following. She discovered Tiffany was unusually accessible, staying available at every step, while the crew completed the entire tear-off and installation in just two days. Erin watched a team that impressed her with speed, accuracy, and professional behavior, and they even cleaned up the site completely afterward. She plans to call Shylee back for other home improvements, and what stuck with her most was that two-day turnaround combined with a spotless job site.

1. Joyce P.
Yelp | Jul 1, 2025 |

Joyce P. began looking for a roofer in late 2024 and early on met Tiffany, who pulled up an aerial view of their ranch-style home and delivered a blunt, useful primer on what roofing estimates actually meant—warning that Shylee Roofing probably wouldn’t be the cheapest. That clear, no-nonsense introduction became the yardstick they used against other bids: some came in lower, a few higher, but many offered less scope or value. Tiffany and her husband Dave never pushed, and their patience through the couple’s many delays slowly built trust; it was their honesty and steady integrity that ultimately won the job. Preferring a local, family-owned crew, Joyce wanted someone who treated the house like a home, and Shylee fit that brief—kind people who felt purposeful in their work and who made a real difference to the family. The roof was finished on July 1, 2025, executed quickly yet carefully, with the team responsive whenever a question or concern popped up. In the end she walked away with far more quality and service than the price suggested—so impressed she wished she could give more than five stars.

2. Gina J.
Yelp | Mar 23, 2025 |

Gina J. needed a leak at the Woodland Hills fire station fixed before a predicted storm, so she brought in Shylee Roofing and Construction to inspect the gym roof. The team moved quickly—inspecting and then starting repairs the very next day when heavy rain was forecast, showing real urgency. What made the visit unforgettable was the owners, David and Tiffany Swisa, donating all the labor to the firehouse so the firefighters would have a safe, dry space without any expectation of payment. She walked away struck by the company’s community-first approach and professionalism; the clearest takeaway is that they prioritized the station’s safety over profit and acted on it immediately.

3. Sue C.
Yelp | Feb 27, 2025 |

When Sue C. needed a new roof, she reached out to Shylee's Roofing and ended up impressed by how fast and organized the process was. She worked directly with owner Tiffany Swisa, who scheduled an inspection within hours of the initial call and delivered a re-roof estimate the same day. The price matched several other bids Sue had received, but what set the job apart was Tiffany’s hands-on customer service: she answered every question, stayed on top of scheduling, and coordinated the crew from start to finish. Because of that organization the team completed the new roof in just three days. Neighbors took notice too—her next-door neighbor hired the company after seeing the work. The detail that stuck with Sue was the owner-run responsiveness: same-day inspection and estimate, clear communication, and a three-day turnaround.
