Roofing in Pacoima, California
Straightforward repair and replacement work on postwar tract housing, done by a contractor from the next neighborhood over.
Pacoima is largely 1940s–1960s single-family housing on small lots, much of it with detached garages, converted garages and rear additions. That mix creates a lot of roof-to-roof and roof-to-wall transitions, and those transitions are where nearly every leak we chase in Pacoima actually starts.
KAT ROOFING CO works out of Sylmar, a few minutes north. CSLB #857967, C-39 Roofing, since 2005.
Where Pacoima roofs actually leak
Water almost never enters where the stain appears. On these houses the usual culprits are the flashing where a lower addition roof ties into the main house wall, the valley metal between the original roof and a later add-on, the swamp cooler curb, and abandoned penetrations from removed vents and antennas that were tarred over instead of properly closed.
We trace the entry point before quoting anything. Chasing a stain with sealant is how a small problem becomes a sheathing replacement.
Repair versus replacement, said plainly
Not every roof needs replacing, and we will tell you when yours does not. If your shingles have life left and the failure is isolated to one flashing detail, the right job is a repair and we will quote it as a repair. When the field of the roof is worn out or has been layered over more than once, patching it is spending money twice.

Rental and multi-family properties
A large share of Pacoima housing is tenant-occupied, and owners are often managing the property from elsewhere. We document everything with photos, provide a written scope before work begins, and coordinate access with tenants so an owner does not have to be on site.
