Fast, Reliable Roof Replacement Across Beverly Hills
A full roof replacement in Beverly Hills typically runs $18,000 to $65,000 for most single-family homes, with higher-end tile, slate, and custom-matched historic roofs stretching above $90,000. Most jobs take five to ten working days once design review and permits clear. If you’re reading this, you probably already know the hard part in this city isn’t the roofing itself, it’s getting through Beverly Hills design review with a roof the inspector will sign off on. We handle that end to end. Call (213) 674-2890 for a written, line-item price before any work starts.
Why Tilehurst Roofing Los Angeles Is Beverly Hills’s Preferred Roof Replacement Company
Greg Holloway runs our Beverly Hills work, and he’s the one who walks your roof before you ever see a number. Homeowners here tell us the same story: they had a roofer who quoted over the phone, showed up late, then found “unexpected damage” and changed the price at the door. That doesn’t happen with us. The written price you get before work starts is the price you pay, and every job carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise. If something isn’t right inside a full year, we come back and fix it. No argument, no invoice.
Our crews know Beverly Hills building stock the way a mechanic knows a specific engine. The 1920s Spanish Colonials off Laurel Way, the mid-century contemporaries above Sunset, the flat-roofed modern boxes north of Wilshire, each has its own failure points and its own design review path. Greg has walked enough of these roofs to tell you upfront whether your decking will pass inspection or need replacement. That matters before you sign, not after the tear-off exposes it.
We’re part of the Kingswell family of roofing companies, founded in 2000. A live person answers every call, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. That includes Saturday evening when you finally get a chance to look at the estimate. No voicemail, no callback queue.
Scheduling and dispatch run from our Los Angeles office, and our crews serve Beverly Hills daily. Response time for an estimate visit in the 90210, 90211, and 90212 areas is usually within one to three business days during dry season. During peak August heat, we may push that a few days because so many homeowners call at once. We’d rather schedule a window we actually hit than promise tomorrow and miss it.

New Roof Installation in Beverly Hills
New Roof Installation in Beverly Hills means a complete tear-off to decking, inspection of the structural framing underneath, replacement of any compromised decking, new underlayment, and a roof system matched to your home’s style and the city’s design review requirements. On new construction or major renovations, we coordinate with your general contractor from the framing stage so the roof system is engineered correctly before the first tile or shingle goes down.
A new asphalt shingle installation in Beverly Hills runs roughly $18,000 to $35,000 for a typical 2,500 to 3,500 square foot home. Architectural shingles from GAF, Owens Corning, or CertainTeed land in the $25,000 to $45,000 range. Clay tile, slate, or custom-matched historic tile starts around $40,000 and climbs quickly depending on the profile, curvature, and patina the city requires.
Before we quote a single number, Greg inspects the attic, the decking from above and below, the fascia, and the drainage conditions at the roofline. Rotten decking, sagging rafters, or a flaking fascia change the scope. You’ll see every line item in writing before you commit.
Decking and Structural Inspection
Beverly Hills homes from the 1920s through the 1960s often have original wood decking that looks fine from below and turns to sponge under a tear-off. We check the framing from the attic first, then document any decking we expect to replace in the original quote. If we find additional rot after tear-off, we show you photos before touching anything else. No surprise add-ons.
Underlayment and Waterproofing
On flat and low-slope sections, which are common on Mediterranean and contemporary Beverly Hills homes, the underlayment is the real roof. We use self-adhered ice and water shield at all eaves, valleys, and penetrations, then a high-temp rated underlayment suited to our dry, UV-heavy climate. The tile or shingle on top is protection; the underlayment is what keeps water out.
Reroofing in Beverly Hills
Reroofing in Beverly Hills is where most of our calls start. Whether the existing roof is original 1920s clay tile gone brittle with age, or an asphalt shingle roof baked by UV into curled, crumbling granules, the job means full removal, decking evaluation, and a new system installed to current code and design review standards. A reroof runs the same price range as new installation: $18,000 to $65,000 for most homes, more for custom tile matching.
The design review is the part that catches people off guard. Beverly Hills enforces some of the strictest residential roofing aesthetic rules in the country. Most residential zones require clay tile, slate, or wood shake to preserve the Spanish Colonial and Mediterranean Revival character. If your existing roof is tile, the replacement tile often has to match the original color, barrel curvature, and patina. Not close. Match. That’s a Beverly Hills requirement you won’t see in Los Angeles or West Hollywood.
On the flats south of Santa Monica Boulevard, many original 1920s clay tile roofs are still in place. The tiles have become brittle with age. Walk on one wrong and you crack six of them. When those come off, the replacement tiles usually need custom fabrication to match the exact color and curvature, otherwise inspection fails and the job stalls. We handle the design review paperwork, the sample submittal, and the inspection. You shouldn’t have to learn tile profile vocabulary to get a roof.
Custom Tile Matching and Design Review
A 1940s Spanish Colonial off Laurel Way sticks with us. The original clay tile was so brittle that we couldn’t walk the roof without cracking pieces. We pulled samples early, sent them to a fabricator who matched the barrel profile and the decades of patina, then rebuilt the underlayment with a self-adhered ice and water shield before relaying the tile. The inspector checked the curvature against the original profile and signed off. That’s the process. You don’t get to skip it, and you don’t want a roofer who says you can.
Tile Removal Protocol
Old tile roofs come off carefully, not with shovels. Our crew removes tile by hand, stacks anything salvageable, and photographs the decking underneath in sections. If you plan to reuse any original tile, we’ll tell you upfront what percentage we expect to survive removal. On 1920s flats homes, that number is often lower than homeowners hope. Brittle tile breaks, and it breaks on its own schedule, not ours.
Trusted Brands We Service in Beverly Hills
We are not tied to one manufacturer. You choose from GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. On Beverly Hills jobs, the design review usually drives the material choice more than brand preference, especially when clay tile must match original 1920s profiles. For architectural shingle reroofs, GAF and Atlas both hold up well under heavy UV, and we keep their high-temp rated options in our local stock for faster turnaround on Beverly Hills projects. When tile is required, Boral profiles give us the closest match to historic barrel shapes. We’ll show you samples and a written warranty from the manufacturer before you commit.

AfterCommon Roof Replacement Problems We See in Beverly Hills Homes
- Brittle original clay tile on 1920s homes. South of Santa Monica Boulevard, those tiles have been baking in UV for a century. They crack underfoot and during removal, which means the tear-off itself becomes a matching project, not a demolition.
- Rotten decking hidden under older tile. A slow leak decades ago can soften the wood without showing inside. We find rot during tear-off that no one could have predicted from the ground. We document it and show you before replacing.
- Santa Ana wind damage at ridge and rake edges. The winds come through the canyons and hit homes above Sunset hard. Nailing patterns that work in West Los Angeles can fail up here. We adjust our nailing schedule to meet the local wind exposure.
- Flat-roof drainage failures on modern homes. Low-slope sections on 1950s and contemporary homes pool water when the original drainage wasn’t sloped correctly. We re-slope with tapered insulation or tapered roof systems and verify drainage before finishing.

FAQs About Roof Replacement in Beverly Hills
It depends where your lot sits. Most Beverly Hills residential reroofs go through City of Beverly Hills building and safety, including design review if the roof is in a historic or character district. But if your property touches a county-adjacent boundary or includes large unincorporated grade changes, part of the job can trigger Los Angeles County Public Works drainage and grading review. That’s the part that stalls jobs when the decking is rotten and the roof plane changes. We check the parcel and the county’s database before quoting, so you know which agency is in play. The detached ADU is a separate tear-off under the same design review, and it needs its own tile profile submittal if it’s visible from the street. Call us before you sign with anyone, and we’ll walk you through the actual path for your address: (213) 674-2890.
Septic tanks and wells on acreage means setbacks and access. If the septic tank sits near the roofline, we can’t stage materials or drive a crane across the leach field without risking compaction and permit trouble. Well heads need clearance for equipment swing. On upper canyon lots, material delivery may require a smaller truck or a relay from the street. None of this changes your roof system, but it changes the logistics and sometimes the price. We scope access and setbacks before quoting, so the number you sign reflects the real job. For an exact price on your lot, call (213) 674-2890.
In Beverly Hills, almost certainly yes. The city’s design review requires replacement clay tile to match the original color, barrel curvature, and patina in most residential zones. Not similar. Match. Off by a fraction on curvature and the inspector will reject it, which means a second fabrication run and another few weeks. We pull samples from your roof early, send them to a fabricator, and submit the new tile for review before we tear anything off. That’s the only way to avoid a stalled job. Call (213) 674-2890 and we’ll tell you what your specific roof needs.
A “square” is 100 square feet of roof surface. Ask the roofer to state the square count on your roof, then check it against the aerial or the previous estimate. Different roofers quote different square counts for the same roof because they measure differently. More important in Beverly Hills: ask whether the square price includes the design review submittal, custom tile matching, and any decking replacement they anticipate. A low square price with design review added later is not a low price. Get a written, line-itemed number that includes everything, which is what we give every time. For a detailed square count and price, call (213) 674-2890.
Yes, and on canyon-facing homes above Sunset they matter more than in the flats. Santa Ana winds hit roofs at the ridge and rake edges, and a standard six-nail pattern doesn’t hold up in high exposure zones. We use a high-wind nailing schedule and high-temp rated shingles from GAF or Atlas on the windward roof planes. Tile roofs get extra fastening at the ridge and hip, and we check the tile’s wind rating against the manufacturer’s exposure chart. If your current roof lost tiles in the last Santa Ana event, the nailing pattern was probably the issue. Call (213) 674-2890 and we’ll look at your specific exposure.
When you’re ready to price a roof replacement, call (213) 674-2890. Greg will walk the roof, explain what design review requires for your specific home, and hand you a written line-item price before any work starts. That price is the price. That guarantee is in writing. That’s the Kingswell Way.
