Contractors in California are licensed through the Contractors State Licence Board. You can file a complaint with the CSLB.

I would suggest you call another roofer for a consultation, either to confirm your suspicions or for a 2nd opinion.
If they agree with your assessment, ask them to write a brief summary of their findings.

Yes, we got two independent roofers and one general contractor, all of them they said that our roof is NOT complete. They pointed some errors, which I mentioned before.
The roofer business which did our roof is old ( they worked for us before ), but now they have new owner, who cutS the corners and we have a problem - bad looking and Still leaking roof.
What happened to company if we report them?
They still be ripping other costumers.

I would concentrate on what happens to your home, not so much on what other customers may (or may not) experience, or what the State Licensing Board actions might be.

Often times a small defect can lead to large problems, so perhaps your problems are easy to fix.
