El Sereno roofs

Hillside lots, bungalows and post-war homes

El Sereno climbs from the flats along Huntington Drive into hillside streets on its north and east sides. The older blocks have 1920s and 1930s bungalows and Spanish revival homes, many with clay tile or low-slope sections, while later homes on the hills are mostly shingle.

Hillside lots mean steep driveways and roofs that are hard to reach, so access and staging matter on every job. On the older homes we often find dry rot at the eaves and roofs carrying more than one layer.

Roofing in El Sereno

El Sereno sits on the eastern edge of the City of Los Angeles, bordered by Alhambra, South Pasadena and Monterey Park, with many homes on hillside streets. Being based here means short drives to most calls in the neighborhood, and it means we already know how the steep streets, narrow driveways and older roofs here tend to behave before we arrive.

Permits and rules

LADBS permits

El Sereno is part of the City of Los Angeles, so re-roof permits come from LADBS. We file them regularly for homes around our office and schedule the inspections.

Hillside streets can be narrow, so we plan parking and material delivery with neighbors in mind.

We cover whether to re-roof before going solar in our roofing advice section.
