Los Angeles County is huge, and no single roofing company covers all of it well. Our service area is the part we can reach quickly from our Long Beach office at 421 E 1st Street and our La Mirada office at 13303 Biola Ave. That includes Long Beach and Signal Hill, the Gateway Cities such as Lakewood, Bellflower, Downey, Norwalk, Cerritos, Artesia, La Mirada and Whittier, and the Harbor and South Bay communities of Carson, San Pedro and Torrance.

Within that area, housing ranges from early 1900s bungalows and Spanish Revival homes to post-war tracts, mobile home parks, apartments and large industrial buildings. Each part of the area has its own building department and its own roofing patterns. Our crews know those differences because we work here every week.

Homes and roofs in the parts of LA County we serve

Near the coast, in Long Beach, San Pedro and parts of Torrance, older Craftsman, Spanish Revival and mid-century homes face salt air and marine haze. Clay tile, concrete tile, shingle and flat roofs all appear, and metal flashing and fasteners wear out faster here. Many apartment buildings and commercial roofs line the harbor and downtown areas.

Inland, the Gateway Cities are mostly post-war tract neighborhoods with single-story homes and shingle or concrete tile roofs, along with older cores in Downey and Whittier. Carson and parts of the area have mobile home parks and industrial buildings. Summer heat and sun are harder on roofs inland than at the coast.

Homes and roofs in Los Angeles County

Roof problems we see most in Los Angeles County

Coastal corrosion

Within a mile or two of the ocean or harbor, flashing, vents and nails rust faster. Leaks often start at corroded metal parts.

Aging post-war roofs

Many 1950s homes in the Gateway Cities are on aging second or third roofs. Shingles curl, crack and lose granules.

Tile underlayment failure

Concrete and clay tile roofs often outlast their felt underlayment. Leaks appear in the first big storm after years of dry weather.

Flat roofs on apartments and businesses

Low-slope roofs on apartments, shops and warehouses pond water and fail at seams and penetrations.

Permits and response times across our LA County area

Each city we serve in Los Angeles County has its own building department, and San Pedro falls under the City of Los Angeles. Long Beach has historic districts where visible changes can need extra review. We handle permits and inspections in every city and check Title 24 cool roof rules before ordering material.

Our two offices split the area well. Long Beach crews cover the coast, the Harbor area and nearby cities, while La Mirada crews cover the Gateway Cities to the north and east. We answer the phone 24/7 and dispatch from whichever office is closer when a storm opens up a leak.
