Quick answer

In Atwater Village we repair and re-roof Spanish revival and Tudor-style homes, relay clay tile over new underlayment, repair steep shingle roofs with complex valleys, and fix dry rot at eaves and gables. Atwater Village is part of the City of Los Angeles, so permits come from LADBS, and calls are answered 24/7.

Atwater Village roofs

Storybook slopes and Spanish tile

The neighborhood's Tudor and storybook houses have steep, irregular roofs with rolled eaves, multiple gables and tall chimneys, while the Spanish revival homes sit under low-pitched clay tile. Both styles were built over board decks that are now close to a century old.

Steep, complex roofs need careful work at every valley and chimney, and tile roofs usually need their underlayment replaced more than their tile. A lift and relay saves the original tile and the look of the street.

Roofing in Atwater Village

Atwater Village sits along the Los Angeles River across from Griffith Park, and much of it was built in the 1920s and 1930s as Spanish revival and Tudor-style homes. Roofs that old were laid over board decks and often carry patched layers, so we check the deck, the chimney flashing and the valleys before quoting any repair or re-roof on these homes.

Permits and rules

LADBS permits

Atwater Village is part of the City of Los Angeles, so re-roof permits come from LADBS. We take care of the permit and the inspection visits.

A tile relay with new underlayment is handled like a re-roof for permit purposes, so we file it the same way.
