Trusted Roof Repair for Los Angeles Homeowners
A roof repair in Los Angeles usually costs between $350 and $1,500 for common fixes like replacing damaged shingles, sealing a leak around flashing, or patching a flat roof membrane. Most repairs are done in a single visit, and you should expect a written price before any work starts. If you’re dealing with water coming through the ceiling, a missing section of shingles, or a tear in a flat roof, call Tilehurst Roofing Los Angeles at (213) 674-2890 and a live person answers, day or night.
We’re a Kingswell family roofing company, founded in 2000, and we’ve spent two and a half decades repairing roofs across Los Angeles, Glendale, Compton, and the surrounding neighborhoods. Greg Holloway leads our Los Angeles crews. The job starts with a written price in your hands, and it ends with a written guarantee before the crew pulls away. No phone tag, no surprise change orders, no repair that fails a month later and leaves you calling a disconnected number.
This page covers what repairs actually cost in Los Angeles, the most common failure points we see in this climate, and what to expect from your first call to your final invoice. If you’d rather skip the reading and get an answer now, call (213) 674-2890. We’ll give you a straight answer.
Roof Leak Repair
Roof Leak Repair in Los Angeles typically costs $400 to $1,200 depending on where the water is getting in and how long it’s been traveling before it showed up on your ceiling. In neighborhoods like Redondo Beach and Culver City, we often trace leaks back to aging pipe boots, damaged flashing around chimneys and skylights, or cracked tile underlayment that’s been quietly soaking for months. Tilehurst Roofing Los Angeles arrives with moisture meters and infrared cameras to find the actual entry point, not just the first wet patch. Every leak repair gets a written guarantee. If it leaks again within the guarantee period, we come back at no charge under the 365-Day Done Right Promise. Call (213) 674-2890 and a live person answers 24/7.
Flashing and Pipe Boot Failures
Most roof leaks in Los Angeles aren’t caused by the roofing material itself, which is why Leak Repair starts with finding the true source. They come from failed flashing around chimneys, vent pipes, and skylights, where water finds a small gap and works it wider over time. We replace corroded flashing, reseal pipe boots, and check that the surrounding sealant is actually bonded, not just painted on.
Underlayment Deterioration
Under clay tile and architectural shingles sits a layer of water-shedding underlayment, and in Los Angeles’s hot, dry summers it bakes brittle. When that underlayment fails, water can travel along the decking for several feet before it drips, which is why the stain on your ceiling rarely lines up with the hole in the roof. We trace it with moisture detection equipment before we quote anything.
Styles & brands we work with
Emergency Roof Repair
Emergency Roof Repair for a tree limb through the decking or storm-torn shingles typically runs $500 to $2,000 in Los Angeles depending on the size of the opening and how quickly it needs to be sealed. If water is actively entering your home in Santa Monica or Manhattan Beach, the first priority is stopping it: we tarp the damaged section, secure the opening, and then schedule the permanent repair. Tilehurst Roofing Los Angeles answers every call with a live person, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays and the middle of the night. You won’t reach a voicemail. Call (213) 674-2890, tell us what happened, and we tell you exactly what it’ll cost before we head your way.
Storm and Wind Damage Response
Los Angeles gets its share of sudden wind events, especially in the fall and winter when Santa Ana gusts can lift shingles, tear flashing, and send tree branches through roof decking. We mobilize fast after these storms, with crews who know which neighborhoods get hit hardest and what the typical damage patterns look like.
Overnight Tarp and Temporary Sealing
A proper emergency tarp isn’t a blue sheet thrown over a hole. We fasten the tarp to the decking with furring strips so it stays put through the next wind event, and we document everything in writing so you have a record for your insurance claim. The price for the emergency work is agreed before we start, not after.
Flat Roof Repair
Flat Roof Repair in Los Angeles typically costs $500 to $1,800, with the range driven by the roofing system, the size of the damaged area, and whether we’re patching a membrane or rebuilding a section of built-up roofing. Flat and low-slope roofs are common across Huntington Park and East Rancho Dominguez, where mid-century homes and commercial buildings roll out modified bitumen or single-ply membranes. Standing water, or ponding, is the enemy here: it accelerates membrane breakdown and finds every weak seam. Tilehurst Roofing Los Angeles repairs flat roofs with overlapping patches that extend well beyond the visible damage, not a thin smear of sealant that fails the next time it rains. Call (213) 674-2890 for a written quote.
Modified Bitumen and Single-Ply Repairs
Modified bitumen roofs are repaired by torch or cold-adhesive application over the damaged area, and we ensure the patch bonds to the surrounding membrane. For single-ply roofs like TPO or PVC, we use heat-welded patches from a matching material so the repair lasts as long as the roof around it.
Ponding Water and Drainage Issues
If water sits on your flat roof for more than 48 hours after a rain, the membrane is degrading. We inspect the drainage points, clear clogged scuppers and internal drains, and where needed add tapered crickets to direct water off the roof. A Flat Roof Patch that doesn’t fix the drainage is a repair that fails.
Shingle Roof Repair
Shingle Roof Repair in Los Angeles typically runs $350 to $1,200 for replacing damaged, cracked, or missing asphalt shingles, including the underlayment patching and fastener replacement that most quick fixes skip. Asphalt shingle is the most common residential roof material in Beverly Hills and View Park-Windsor Hills, and Southern California sun is brutal on it: shingles curl, crack, and lose granules years before their rated lifespan. Tilehurst Roofing Los Angeles matches the shingle color and profile as closely as available stock allows, then seals each replacement in a way that won’t lift in the next Santa Ana wind event. Call (213) 674-2890 and we’ll give you a written number before a nail is driven.
Curling and Granule Loss
When asphalt shingles curl at the edges or lose their granule coating, they stop shedding water and start absorbing it. We inspect for granule loss in the gutters and around downspouts as an early warning sign, then perform Shingle Replacement before the decking underneath gets compromised.
Ridge Cap and Hip Repair
The ridge cap sits at the peak of the roof and takes the brunt of wind exposure from every direction. When a ridge cap shingle blows loose, it opens a direct path for water into the attic. We reseat or replace ridge caps with fasteners rated for Los Angeles’s wind patterns, not the cheapest ones on the shelf.
Storm Damage Roof Repair
Storm Damage Roof Repair in Los Angeles for wind or wind-driven rain typically costs $400 to $1,600, and the work usually falls under your homeowners insurance deductible rather than full replacement. The most common storm damage we see in Santa Monica and Redondo Beach isn’t dramatic tree falls; it’s shingles lifted at the edges, flashing bent backward, and debris scouring the surface. Federal and state law protects your right to choose your own contractor, and Tilehurst Roofing Los Angeles works directly with insurance adjusters to document every damaged area with photographs and written findings. Call (213) 674-2890 the day you notice damage, and we’ll document it before further weather makes it worse.
Wind Uplift and Lifted Shingles
When a shingle lifts, the sealant strip underneath breaks, and the shingle never re-seats itself properly. Wind can then peel back whole sections of the roof. We inspect the entire roof after a wind event, not just the spot you can see from the ground, because neighboring shingles often have the same hidden damage.
Insurance Documentation and Claims
We don’t just fix the roof and leave you to argue with your carrier. Our crews document every damaged area with photos, take written notes, and walk the adjuster through the findings when they arrive. You get a written estimate that matches the scope of the damage, and your guarantee starts the day the work is done.
Metal Roof Repair
Metal Roof Repair in Los Angeles typically costs $450 to $1,800 depending on the metal profile, the type of repair, and whether we’re replacing panels or just resealing seams and fasteners. Standing-seam and corrugated metal roofs are more common in the hillside neighborhoods around Culver City, and while metal generally outlasts asphalt, the fasteners and seam sealants fail first. We replace worn-out neoprene washers, tighten or replace fasteners, and reseal seams with a sealant compatible with the metal. If your metal roof is leaking, Tilehurst Roofing Los Angeles traces it with moisture detection before quoting repair, not after. Call (213) 674-2890.
Fastener and Seam Leaks
Metal panels expand and contract with every hot Los Angeles afternoon and every cool night. That movement loosens fasteners over time, and the rubber washers underneath dry out and crack, letting water in around the screw heads. We replace the fasteners and washers, then reseal the seam so the repair moves with the metal.
Corrosion and Panel Replacement
In coastal neighborhoods like Hermosa Beach, salt air speeds up corrosion on some metal roof profiles. We assess the panel thickness with a gauge before replacing anything, and when a panel is too far gone, we match the profile and gauge from the manufacturer so the repair blends instead of standing out.
Commercial Roof Repair
Commercial Roof Repair in Los Angeles typically costs $800 to $5,000 depending on the roofing system, square footage of the damaged area, and whether we’re patching a membrane or repairing wall flashing and penetrations. Flat and low-slope commercial roofs across Huntington Park and East Rancho Dominguez face the same ponding and UV breakdown issues as residential flat roofs, just on a larger scale. Tilehurst Roofing Los Angeles repairs TPO, PVC, EPDM, and modified bitumen systems, with the same written guarantee on every job. We schedule around your business hours where possible, and we document every repair for your property records. Call (213) 674-2890 for a written proposal.
Membrane Patching and Seam Repair
Commercial membranes fail at the seams first, where the original welding or adhesive breaks down under years of sun and ponding. We clean the seam, test for moisture saturation in the insulation below, and then heat-weld or cold-bond a patch that extends well past the visible failure.
Flashing and Penetration Maintenance
Every rooftop HVAC unit, vent pipe, and exhaust fan is a penetration, and every penetration is a potential leak. We inspect the flashing and sealant around each one, reseal where needed, and perform Flashing Repair where it has rusted or separated from the roof surface.
Brands We Service
We repair roofs built with materials from all seven major manufacturers we work with: GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. For homeowners with GAF shingles, we match the existing color and profile so the repair doesn’t look like a patch. For Clay tile roofs from Boral, we understand the underlayment systems that sit underneath and often fail before the tile itself does.
We’ve worked extensively with Atlas and Tamko shingle lines, including their high-wind rated products, and we know which sealant strips and fastening patterns each manufacturer requires for the warranty to remain valid. Whether you have any of these brands or a roof system we haven’t named here, we can help. Call (213) 674-2890 and tell us what’s over your head.

AfterSigns You Need a Pro Right Now
- Water stains on the ceiling or walls. A brown or yellow ring on your ceiling means water has been traveling through the roof system long enough to soak the insulation and reach the drywall. By the time you see the stain, the damage is active and spreading. Call before the next rain turns a patch into a re-roof.
- Missing shingles after a wind event. Missing shingles expose the underlayment and decking, which are not meant to be the first line of defense. Water gets through in a single rain, and the exposed area grows with every gust. We can match and replace missing shingles fast.
- Granules in the gutters. If your gutters are filling with what looks like coarse sand, your asphalt shingles are losing their protective coating. This is normal at the end of a roof’s life, but if your roof is newer than 15 years, it means premature degradation. We’ll tell you honestly whether you need a repair or a replacement.
- Daylight visible through the attic. Go into the attic on a sunny day and turn off the lights. If you can see sunlight coming through the roof boards, water is getting through too. Gaps like this also mean your roof decking may have rot that needs to be cut out and replaced before the repair is done.
- Lifted or curling shingles at the eaves. Wind gets under the roof edge first, and once a shingle lifts, it acts like a sail. The damage compounds fast. Curled shingles also create channels that direct water sideways, underneath the unharmed shingles next to them.
Our Process, Step by Step
- 1
You call, a live person answers. That’s it. No phone menu with seven options, no “leave a message and we’ll get back to you within one business day.” You describe the problem, and we ask the right questions to understand what we’re walking into. Call (213) 674-2890 now if you’re looking at a leak.
- 2
We schedule a written inspection, not a vague “look around.” Our technicians arrive in uniform, with a background check on file, and they inspect the roof with moisture meters and thermal imaging where we suspect hidden leaks. They document what they find, with photos and notes you can keep.
- 3
You get a written price before any work starts. The price we hand you is the price you pay. No “we found unexpected damage once we opened the roof” add-ons, because we open the roof as part of the inspection when we need to. If the scope changes for a real reason, you approve it in writing before we proceed.
- 4
We do the repair, clean up, and document the guarantee. Our crews leave the roof and yard cleaner than they found it. When the work is done, you get a written guarantee that spells out exactly what’s covered and for how long. It’s not an email promise, it’s a document in your hand.
- 5
If it fails inside the guarantee period, we return at no charge. The 365-Day Done Right Promise means a full year of accountability on every job. If the repair fails, you call, we schedule the return visit without argument, and we fix it. That’s the Kingswell Way.
How Much Does Roof Repair Cost in Los Angeles?
A typical roof repair in Los Angeles runs $400 to $1,500, with the exact number driven by the size of the damaged area, the height and pitch of your roof, the roofing material, and whether we’re replacing just the surface layer or also cutting out damaged decking. A simple shingle replacement on a single-story home in Compton tends to be on the low end. A flat roof membrane patch on a two-story commercial building in Culver City runs higher. Calling us with a photo and a description gets you a ballpark over the phone, and the written on-site quote locks it in.
What affects the price: how much of the roof is damaged, whether the decking underneath is rotted, how steep the roof is, and what material we’re matching. A second-story steep pitch in the hills around Beverly Hills takes longer and costs more than a low single-story in Huntington Park. To avoid overpaying, get at least three quotes, but make sure you’re comparing the same scope: some companies price the patch only, then hit you with change orders when they discover the decking is rotten. Our written estimate includes everything we can see, and we open the roof during the inspection, not after the contract is signed. The free estimate includes the full inspection, the written findings, and the written price. Call (213) 674-2890 to schedule yours.
