Roofing in Canoga Park
On older Canoga Park homes, we often find shingles installed over shingles. A full tear-off lets us inspect the deck, replace soft or damaged sheathing, and start over with new underlayment and flashing.
Flat-roof patio covers and room additions are common here too. Many were roofed with rolled roofing or shingles at too low a pitch, which leads to leaks at the wall line. We reroof those sections with a membrane made for low slopes.

What affects roofs in Canoga Park
Layered shingle roofs
Multiple shingle layers add weight and hide deck damage. We tear off to the deck and replace damaged boards before reroofing.
Low-slope additions
Patio covers and additions need TPO or modified bitumen to stay watertight at low pitch.
Valley heat
Cool-rated shingles reflect more sunlight and keep attics cooler through Canoga Park summers.
Roofing permits in Canoga Park
Canoga Park is part of the City of Los Angeles, so permits come from the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety. Many residential reroofs in Los Angeles need cool-roof products; we confirm what applies and handle the paperwork.

Canoga Park roofing questions
Can you roof over my existing shingles?
We usually recommend a full tear-off. It lets us inspect and repair the deck, and it avoids stacking weight on an older roof frame.
Why does my patio cover leak?
Patio covers are often too flat for shingles. A low-slope membrane such as TPO or modified bitumen is the right material at that pitch.
