Sun Valley roofs

Mid-century homes and stone cottages

Most of Sun Valley's houses are single-story homes from the 1950s and 1960s under shingle or concrete tile, with older ranch properties and horse lots toward the foothills. In Stonehurst, the small houses built from local river rock need a lighter touch, with flashing worked into stone rather than stucco.

When a storm comes off the Verdugos, water moves fast. Undersized gutters overflow and water backs up under the shingles at the eaves, so on most re-roofs here we upgrade the gutters and downspouts and run a leak barrier along the edges. The low-slope roofs on the industrial strips along San Fernando Road are shop and yard building roofs we cover as well.

Permits and rules

LADBS permits and the Stonehurst zone

Sun Valley is part of the City of Los Angeles, so re-roof permits come from LADBS. Homes inside the Stonehurst historic preservation overlay zone also need the zone's sign-off on visible roof changes.

We take care of the permit and the inspection visits.

There's more detail in our HPOZ re-roofing guide.

Roofing in Sun Valley

Sun Valley lies at the base of the Verdugo Mountains and has a long history of flash floods, with storm water racing off the foothills onto neighborhood streets. On a roof, that means short, heavy bursts that overwhelm small gutters and find every weak spot at the eaves. We plan for the worst storm of the year rather than the average one, which is why our re-roofs here include a self-sealing barrier along the edges.
