Roofing in San Fernando, California
A one-square-mile city with roofs from nearly every decade of the last century, three minutes from our Sylmar yard.
The City of San Fernando is its own municipality with its own building department, which matters more than people expect. Permitting, inspection scheduling and requirements here are handled by the city rather than by Los Angeles, and a contractor who only works LA City jobs will slow your project down.
KAT ROOFING CO is based two miles away at 12348 San Fernando Rd H, Sylmar. CSLB #857967, C-39 Roofing, in business since 2005.
Older housing stock, layered roofs
San Fernando has a lot of pre-1960 homes, and on older houses we frequently find two or three roof layers stacked on top of each other from previous re-covers. Layered roofs hide rotted sheathing and overload the framing, and they cannot simply be covered a fourth time. When we open one up we tell you exactly what is under there before any material is ordered.
Original Spanish clay tile shows up here as well. Clay tile is worth preserving — it is expensive and often no longer manufactured in a matching profile — so we salvage and reuse as much as possible rather than switching the house to something that does not belong on it.
Roof work we do most often in San Fernando
- Full tear-off of multi-layer shingle roofs
- Clay and concrete tile underlayment replacement
- Rotted sheathing and fascia replacement
- Low-slope hot mop replacement on rear additions
- Swamp cooler, vent and chimney flashing rebuilds
- Leak diagnosis on rooms added without permits
Small commercial along Truman and San Fernando Road
The commercial buildings through the city core are mostly older masonry with low-slope roofs, tight alley access and neighboring tenants on both sides. Those jobs are about logistics as much as roofing: staging material without closing the street, protecting adjacent units, and keeping the tenant open while the work happens.
