Home roof repair and re-roofing in Artesia, CA

Artesia is a compact city tucked between Cerritos, Norwalk and Bellflower, about 20 minutes northeast of our Long Beach office by the 605 or the 91. Our La Mirada office is a short drive away. Pioneer Boulevard runs through the center of town, lined with shops and restaurants that each have a roof of their own to look after.

We work on both sides of Artesia: homes on the residential streets and the low-slope roofs over the businesses along the main corridors. In both cases, the work is often about catching small problems before a winter storm turns them into ceiling damage.

Post-war homes, newer infill and storefront roofs

Residential Artesia is mainly one-story homes from the late 1940s and 1950s on modest lots, with stucco walls and asphalt shingle roofs. Over the years, some lots have been redeveloped with newer two-story homes or small townhome groups, usually with concrete tile or architectural shingle and small flat areas.

The commercial streets carry a mix of older one- and two-story buildings with built-up, torch-down and coated flat roofs behind parapets. Many have rooftop air conditioning units, signs and vents that cut through the membrane. Each penetration is a potential leak point and needs regular attention.

Roof problems we see most in Artesia

Working on Artesia homes and businesses

Artesia is its own city, and re-roof permits are handled by the city rather than Long Beach. We apply for the permit, set up the inspection and have the crew present for it. For commercial roofs, we plan around business hours and coordinate with tenants about noise, access and any rooftop unit shutdowns.

Artesia is inland, so heat and sun do most of the damage to roofs here. Coatings that reflect sunlight can extend the life of a sound flat roof, and we check whether a coating or a full replacement is the right fit. Parking is tight on many commercial blocks, so we schedule deliveries early in the day.
