Roof inspection in Van NuysWhat Van Nuys roofs are up against.
Some of the hottest summer temperatures in LA County. Roof surface temps regularly exceed 160°F on dark shingles. Most of what we're called for here: Heat-cycling failure on aged asphalt; Patched-over leaks on rental properties that hide deeper deck rot; Title 24 cool-roof compliance on commercial re-roofs. The roofs we work on most in Van Nuys: 1950s tract ranches with composition shingle; Two-on-a-lot duplexes with mixed flat and pitched sections; Small commercial with built-up or modified bitumen.
Every stage of our work is photographed by drone so you can see the deck before it's covered. That documentation isn't an extra — it's how we work on every roof.

We check what applies to your parcel before we quote, and we'll confirm it with the permitting authority for you.
Energy / cool roof (Title 24)
Van Nuys 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
Van Nuys sits on the flat San Fernando Valley floor and generally isn't in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, so a standard Class A roof is typical without the extra Chapter 7A hardening. Always confirm your specific parcel. You can check any parcel on the CAL FIRE hazard-zone viewer.
Decking / sheathing
Many older Van Nuys 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.

Financing available for qualified Van Nuys 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 Van Nuys re-roof that needs one may also qualify for PACE-style energy financing — ask us and we'll confirm what applies to your property.
