Roof repair and re‑roofs in San Pedro, Los Angeles, CA 90731
San Pedro is the city's harbor town, with Victorian and Craftsman houses near downtown, post-war homes up the hill and ocean air on every roof. Salt, wind and age are what we work against here.
- Answered 24/7
- Harbor air
- Historic homes
In San Pedro we fix leaks, re-roof post-war homes, replace rusted flashing and fasteners, recoat flat roofs on duplexes, and handle historic roofs in the Vinegar Hill zone. San Pedro is part of the City of Los Angeles, so permits come from LADBS, and calls are answered 24/7.
Harbor air and older homes
Salt air off the harbor and the ocean wears metal faster here than anywhere inland. Flashing, vents, nails and gutters rust out long before the roof covering does, so a lot of San Pedro leaks are really corrosion problems.
We use corrosion-resistant fasteners and flashing on every job near the water. On the flat roofs common on duplexes and small apartment buildings, a reflective roof coating over sound membrane can add years for far less than a replacement.

Historic Home Roofing
Roofs in the Vinegar Hill zone.
San Pedro's Vinegar Hill Historic Preservation Overlay Zone, adopted in 2001, protects houses built between 1886 and 1927 in Queen Anne, Foursquare, Craftsman and Spanish Colonial Revival styles. Visible roof changes there go through the zone's review, and the right material depends on the house. We match the original profile and color as closely as current code allows, and we bring photos of the existing roof to the review.
LADBS permits and Vinegar Hill
San Pedro is part of the City of Los Angeles, so re-roof permits come from LADBS. Homes inside the Vinegar Hill zone also need the zone's sign-off on visible roof changes.
We file the permit and schedule the inspections.
