Why Hughson chooses DeHart Roofing.
Hughson is a small farming community in east Stanislaus County. About 7,400 people live here, surrounded by peach orchards and almond groves. Word travels fast in a town this size. A roofer who cuts corners does not last long.
DeHart Roofing has been part of Stanislaus County since 1975. Larry DeHart founded the company in Turlock that year. In 2026, the Espindola family acquired DeHart and brought the same operational standards that run their other brands. Clayton DeHart — Larry's brother and the company's lead salesman — stayed on through the change. So did the installation crews.
Our Turlock headquarters is about 10 miles west of Hughson. We dispatch here often. We know the Sansoni Park area, the Santa Fe Avenue corridor, and the orchard-adjacent properties on the east side of town.
The one option other Espindola roofers don't offer: DeHart quotes Pabco base-tier shingles. Econo Roofing and NuShake Roofing do not typically offer Pabco. If you want a solid roof at a lower material cost — with professional installation by the same crews — Pabco is the angle worth asking about.
What makes Hughson roofs different.
Hughson sits at the edge of peach and almond country. That agricultural setting creates real roofing challenges. Most of the housing stock dates from the 1960s through the 1990s. Many homes have never had a full replacement.
Orchard dust and debris.
Field operations kick up fine dust all year. It builds up in your gutters and roof valleys. That debris holds moisture against the shingles and speeds up granule loss. We clean all debris during inspections and recommend algae-resistant shingles for orchard-adjacent homes.
Thermal stress from Central Valley heat.
Summers hit 105 degrees in Hughson. Heat expands your shingles during the day. Cool nights contract them. This cycle stresses the sealant strips that hold shingles in place. After 15 to 20 years, sealant strips can fail. Wind gets under the shingles. Leaks start at the ridge or in the valleys. We check for early sealant failure on every free inspection.
Aging decks on older ranch homes.
Many homes off Santa Fe Avenue and near Tully Road still have original plywood from the 1960s. Old plywood delaminates after decades of heat and moisture from below. A hot attic makes this worse. We check decking condition and measure attic ventilation as part of every free inspection. If the deck needs work, you know before tear-off — not after.
Tule fog and winter moisture.
Winter tule fog keeps Hughson roofs damp for weeks at a time. North-facing slopes are most vulnerable. Moss and algae grow in shaded valleys. We use algae-resistant underlayment and can install zinc strips on problem slopes. A roof treated right handles the wet season without turning green by February.
