J L.: Joseph and his crew did a fantastic job from start to finish. Our ADU unit was completed beautifully, including two bathrooms, a kitchen, and a complete roof replacement. The craftsmanship is excellent, the team was professional and respectful, and the worksite stayed clean. We're extremely happy with the results and highly recommend them!

Typical roof replacement cost in Los Angeles
Based on local data from Angi and our own project history, most Los Angeles roof replacements fall in the following ranges. These are starting points — your actual cost depends on the factors below.
- Asphalt shingle roof: $8,000–$18,000 (typical 1,500–2,500 sq ft home)
- Architectural shingle roof: $12,000–$25,000
- Tile roof reroof: $20,000–$40,000+
- Flat roof (TPO or modified bitumen): $6,000–$15,000
What drives the cost up or down
Several factors affect where your project falls in these ranges:
- Roof size and pitch — steeper roofs require more safety equipment and labor
- Material choice — architectural shingles cost more than 3-tab; tile costs more than shingle
- Number of existing layers — tear-off of multiple old layers adds labor and disposal costs
- Decking condition — rotted or damaged decking needs replacement before new roofing goes on
- Roof complexity — more valleys, skylights, chimneys, and penetrations mean more flashing work
- Permit and inspection fees — required by the City of Los Angeles for all reroofs
How to compare roof replacement bids
When comparing bids from different contractors, make sure each bid includes the same scope. A low bid may exclude tear-off, decking repair, or permit fees — those costs show up later as change orders. We provide a free written estimate with each item listed, so you can compare bids line by line.
- Ask if the bid includes tear-off and disposal of old roofing
- Ask if decking repair is included or billed separately
- Ask if permit and inspection fees are included
- Ask what brand and grade of material is being used
- Ask if the bid includes new flashing or reusing old flashing
- Verify the contractor's license number on the CSLB website

Insurance typically covers roof replacement when the damage is sudden and accidental — like storm or tree damage. It does not cover wear and tear from age. If you suspect storm damage, we can inspect the roof and document the damage for your insurance claim.
