Half the roofs here are older than the freeway that gets us to them. Down the 210 from the Newhall Pass it's 1930s-50s cottages and postwar ranch homes, and plenty still hide wood shake under a layer or two of comp. That's full tear-off, usually new decking too.
Access is the other half of the job. Off Foothill Blvd the streets climb fast and the stepped-foundation lots leave nowhere clean for a truck or dumpster. Steep-slope staging takes time. Deep in the Very High Fire Hazard zone against the Angeles National Forest, we build Class A assemblies and add ember-resistant vents while the roof's open. Permits run through LADBS.
Roofing along the Big Tujunga Canyon line
The Creek Fire came through my street. Does re-roofing actually help?
It helps where embers land. Class A covering and ember-resistant vents close the two paths that burned homes in 2017: attic vents drawing embers in, and combustible roofing catching them.
Why do quotes up here run higher than down in the valley?
Steep grade, narrow streets and tight dumpster placement add labor, and these older homes usually need tear-off and re-decking, not a layover.
