Sherman Oaks roofs

Hot flats and hillside streets

In the flats, 1950s ranch houses and apartment buildings carry shingle and flat roofs that take the full force of valley summers. Hot attics cook shingles from below, and flat roofs need reflective surfaces to keep top-floor units bearable.

South of Ventura Boulevard, hillside homes sit among brush and oaks, so their roofs need Class A assemblies, ember-resistant vents and gutters that don't hold leaves. A radiant barrier helps the homes in the flats as much as anything we do on top.

Roofing in Sherman Oaks

Sherman Oaks' neighborhoods south of Ventura Boulevard climb into the Santa Monica Mountains, where brush-covered slopes put many homes inside mapped fire zones. North of the boulevard the issue is heat rather than fire, so in one neighborhood we plan two kinds of roof: Class A and ember-resistant on the hill, cool, reflective and well ventilated down in the flats.
