Roofing Contractor in Northridge, CA

Roofing in Northridge

Concrete tile and asphalt shingle are the two most common roofs in Northridge. Tile roofs from the 1970s are often due for new underlayment, while older shingle roofs usually need a full tear-off.

Many of these homes have masonry chimneys and decades-old flashing, which is where a lot of leaks start. We check every roof plane and penetration, not only the spot above the stain, and photograph what we find.

What affects roofs in Northridge

Chimney flashing

Worn flashing around older masonry chimneys is a common leak point. We reseal or reflash it during a repair or reroof.

Tile underlayment

1970s concrete tile roofs often need new underlayment. Lift and relay reuses sound tile.

Valley heat

Cool-rated products help meet Los Angeles rules when more than half the roof is replaced, and they cut attic heat.
