Local roofing codes

Roofing codes & requirements in Beverly Hills

Energy / cool roof (Title 24)

Beverly Hills sits in California Energy Commission Climate Zone 9. Under Title 24, Part 6, a low-slope or flat roof here must use a cool-roof product (aged solar reflectance of at least 0.63 and thermal emittance of at least 0.75 — roughly SRI 75) when you replace 50% or more of the roof or about 1,000 sq ft or more. Steep-slope (pitched) residential roofs in Climate Zone 9 are exempt from the cool-roof requirement, so standard shingle or tile is fine. Small like-for-like repairs generally don't trigger it. See the California Energy Commission standards and the CRRC directory for rated products.

Fire — hillside parcels

Beverly Hills parcels in the hills north of Sunset (the Santa Monica Mountains) are in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, where Chapter 7A requires a Class A roof assembly and ember-resistant construction; the flats generally aren't. You can check any parcel on the CAL FIRE hazard-zone viewer.

Decking / sheathing

Many older Beverly Hills homes were built with spaced 1×6 “skip” sheathing under the original roof. For a modern shingle or tile system — and for a Class A assembly — that decking often has to be overlaid with solid sheathing, and any rotted boards replaced. We confirm exactly what your roof needs with a deck inspection at tear-off, not a guess.

Color & materials

Roof color isn't regulated by code. Where a cool roof is required you need a CRRC-rated product that meets the SRI — and those come in a wide range of colors, not just white.

Beverly Hills roofing FAQ

Common Beverly Hills roofing-code questions

Does my Beverly Hills roof need to be Title 24 cool-roof compliant?

Only on flat or low-slope sections. Beverly Hills is in Climate Zone 9, so Title 24 requires a cool roof (about SRI 75) when you replace 50%+ of a low-slope roof, but steep-slope shingle and tile roofs are exempt here.

Is Beverly Hills in a fire zone that requires a Class A roof?

It depends on your parcel. Beverly Hills's hillside/foothill properties are in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone and need a Class A assembly with ember-resistant details; flatter parcels usually don't. We check the CAL FIRE map for you.

Will my old spaced sheathing need to be re-decked?

Sometimes. Older Beverly Hills homes often have spaced 1×6 sheathing; a modern shingle or tile system (and a Class A assembly) may need solid sheathing over it. A deck inspection at tear-off tells us for sure.

Financing

Financing available for qualified Beverly Hills homeowners

You don't have to pay for a roof all at once: financing is available for qualified homeowners, subject to qualification — written itemized pricing first, financing second, never any pressure. And because Title 24 cool-roof products are qualifying energy improvements, a Beverly Hills re-roof that needs one may also qualify for PACE-style energy financing — ask us and we'll confirm what applies to your property.
