In Winnetka we replace shingle roofs on post-war homes, add solid sheathing over old spaced decks, improve attic ventilation, and repair wind and heat damage. Winnetka is part of the City of Los Angeles, so permits come from LADBS, and calls are answered 24/7.
Post-war homes and hot attics
Most Winnetka homes are single-story houses from the 1950s and 1960s with low-pitched shingle roofs, attached garages and simple attic vents. Many have been re-roofed once already, and the next job usually means a tear-off to the deck.
West valley summers are hot, so a re-roof here should come with balanced intake and ridge venting and a cool-rated shingle where the rule applies. Those two changes do more for comfort than anything else on the roof.

Winnetka is a west San Fernando Valley neighborhood made up mostly of post-war single-family homes, and homes built in the same years tend to share the same roof framing, decking and venting. Once we've opened one roof on a street, we know what the others likely hide, which keeps our quotes accurate and the surprises rare once the old roof comes off.
