Fast, Reliable Roof Replacement Across Beverly Hills
A roof replacement in Beverly Hills is rarely a simple swap. Older Spanish Colonial Revival homes in the Flats, hillside estates above Sunset, and newer Mediterranean builds all carry different framing, waterproofing, and Architectural Commission requirements. We schedule Beverly Hills estimates within a few days, walk the roof with you, and price the job to what we actually find under the tile or shingle, not to a national average. If you’re weighing a full replacement versus another repair cycle, call us at (866) 942-4187 and we’ll tell you straight what your roof needs.
Kurt Hensley built our company around material-agnostic roofing. We carry seven major brands so the right product wins, not the one with the highest contractor margin. For Beverly Hills homeowners, that matters because your roof is visible from the street and often subject to Architectural Commission review. We match tile, spec the right underlayment, and handle the permit process from the first drawing to final inspection.
Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement in Beverly Hills
Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement in Beverly Hills typically runs $12 to $22 per square foot installed, depending on shingle tier, decking condition, and whether we’re replacing the entire roof or tying into existing sections. Most Beverly Hills homes that use asphalt shingles are in the 90211 and 90212 flats north of Santa Monica Boulevard, or on guest houses and garage structures behind larger tile-roofed estates. These roofs often haven’t been touched since the 1980s. Once we remove the old shingles, we frequently find rotted decking at the eaves and valleys where ficus debris and jacaranda flowers have held moisture against the plywood for decades.
On a 1928 Spanish Colonial Revival off North Crescent Drive, our crew pulled cracked barrel clay tile and found the original skip-sheathing decking had failed under a torn felt underlayment, with two rafters sistered decades ago and not to current size. We stopped, wrote a framing and decking allowance into the contract with the homeowner’s approval in writing, then rebuilt the decking, laid new ice and water shield through the valleys, and set matching Boral barrel tile that cleared the Architectural Commission’s visible-roof review. That’s how a Beverly Hills job goes when it’s done by people who’ve opened enough old roofs to know what’s underneath.
A tear-off in the Flats or on a hilltop estate takes one to three weeks depending on roof complexity and weather. Most of that time is the prep work: protecting landscaping, staging materials without blocking the street, and keeping debris out of neighboring properties. Beverly Hills permit inspections happen at multiple stages, so we schedule those in as part of the timeline, not as an afterthought.
What We Install
We install architectural shingles from Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, and Tamko. Architectural shingles carry higher wind ratings than three-tab and hold up better to the Santa Ana gusts that hit hillside homes in 90210. We also install Owens Corning Duration and Atlas StormMaster lines, both of which have products rated for 130 mph winds. The shingle brand matters less than the installation details: correct nail pattern, proper valley metal, and underlayment rated for our dry season plus rare but heavy winter rain.
When You Need It
You need a full asphalt shingle replacement when multiple leaks are appearing in different rooms, granule loss is visible in your gutters, or a roof inspection reveals decking rot that a patch won’t fix. If your home is in 90213 or 90212 and the roof is 25 years old, the underlayment is likely brittle and cracked even if the shingles look okay from the street. Beverly Hills sun does quiet damage: UV turns the asphalt brittle and the paper underlayment to dust. We’ll tell you if replacement is actually required, or if a targeted repair buys you five more years.

New Roof Installation in Beverly Hills
New Roof Installation in Beverly Hills covers both new construction projects and full tear-off re-roofs on additions or remodeled estates. For new construction, costs generally fall between $15 and $28 per square foot. You’re paying for engineering, sheathing, underlayment, and the finished surface. A new roof on a 2,500-square-foot addition or guest house in 90210 typically runs $55,000 to $90,000 once you factor in tile, copper flashing, and Architectural Commission compliance.
Beverly Hills building codes require the roof system to meet current Title 24 energy requirements and the city’s fire zone standards. That’s not a hitch. It’s the reason our new roof installations on hillside properties include Class A fire-rated materials and the required underlayment assemblies. If your architect flagged the roof as a visible element, the Architectural Commission will review materials and color. We prepare that submittal package: product data sheets, color samples, and a written narrative that explains how the roof fits the neighborhood’s Spanish Colonial and Mediterranean character.
Kurt’s team carries Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, and Tamko shingles along with Boral and custom clay tile options. For new construction, we often recommend standing seam metal for low-slope sections or Boral barrel tile to match existing estate architecture. We don’t push one brand. We give you the honest comparison: warranty tier, fire rating, wind resistance, and how long each material lasts on a Beverly Hills roof that bakes in the sun and gets hammered by Santa Ana winds.
Coordinating With Your Builder
We work directly with general contractors and architects on new construction projects. Most new roof installations in Beverly Hills are part of a larger remodel or ground-up build, which means sequencing matters. Framing has to be inspected before we deck, the decking has to be dried in before the rains hit, and the roofer has to coordinate with masons, stucco crews, and window installers. We’ve done this on hillside lots where crane access is tight and staging happens on the street. We know how to schedule it so the roof doesn’t hold up the rest of the build.
Why Orange County Roofing Co Is Beverly Hills’s Preferred Roof Replacement Company
Homeowners in Beverly Hills call us because we don’t treat a tile roof like a shingle roof with different pieces on top. The framing, the underlayment, the valley detail, the flashing around chimneys and parapets, all of it changes. Kurt has spent years opening up roofs in this climate and this housing stock. When we walk a roof in the Flats or up in Benedict Canyon, we’re looking at the same things the city inspector will look at after we open it.
We carry seven major brands: GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. That’s one of the broadest supplier relationships in residential roofing. When a Beverly Hills homeowner needs a tile match for a 1940s Spanish Colonial, we can pull Boral barrel tile. When a homeowner off Wilshire wants a high-wind architectural shingle, we pull Atlas or Tamko. The brand decision follows the job, not the other way around.
We serve the entire Beverly Hills area from our Corona office, and we’ve completed replacements in the Flats, the Trousdale Estates, and the neighborhoods off Mulholland. Our roof inspections are available as a standalone service. You don’t have to buy a replacement to get a real diagnostic report on your roof’s remaining life. If you’re selling a home in 90210, that report gives you a document to hand to a buyer.
Common Roof Replacement Problems We See in Beverly Hills Homes
- Failed skip sheathing and rotted decking in pre-1940s Flats homes. Original 1920s – 40s decking and skip sheathing is discovered failed only after tile removal, forcing a framing and decking upgrade the original bid never scoped. We write a decking allowance into every replacement contract on older Beverly Hills roofs.
- Debris-packed tile valleys and flat-roof drains. Ficus, jacaranda and palm debris packs tile valleys and flat-roof drains, so trapped moisture has already rotted underlayment and flashing long before a leak surfaces inside. Beverly Hills street trees are beautiful and brutal on roofing.
- Santa Ana wind damage on hillside estates. Santa Ana wind events lift ridge and field tiles on hillside estates, and re-setting them without checking the underlayment below hides water intrusion until the next heavy winter rain. We inspect the underlayment every time we re-set a tile, not just the tile itself.
- Flat and low-slope roof failures over additions and garages. Beverly Hills has thousands of additions and garages with flat roofs installed decades ago. Failed waterproofing on those low-slope sections often goes unnoticed until the ceiling below stains. During a full replacement, we tie the flat sections into the main roof with new membrane and proper drainage.

FAQs About Roof Replacement in Beverly Hills
Yes, and it happens on most pre-1940s Flats homes. Once the roof is open and the decking is exposed, the city inspector checks the framing, the wiring passing through the attic, and the waterproofing on attached flat sections. Undersized rafters, knob-and-tube-era wiring, and failed flat-roof membranes all get flagged and must be corrected before the new roof goes on. That’s why our Beverly Hills bids include a written allowance for framing, decking, and any interior corrections the permit triggers. You approve the extra work in writing before we do it. We don’t surprise you with a change order after the fact. Call (866) 942-4187 and we’ll walk you through what your specific roof is likely to trigger.
We stop and show you. You don’t get a voice message about it. On the North Crescent Drive job, we found failed skip sheathing and undersized rafters under the tile. We wrote the framing and decking correction into an allowance the homeowner signed before we touched a single rafter. That’s the process on every Beverly Hills replacement. The allowance is built into the original contract so the price doesn’t move without your written approval. If we find nothing, you don’t pay the allowance. If we find what we expect on a 1930s roof, you know the number before the work starts.
Because the Architectural Commission reviews visible roofs, and because the house across the street was built in the same era with the same tile profile. A mismatched patch of replacement tile is visible from the street and drags down the whole roofline. We match profile, color, and weathering. Boral makes barrel tile profiles that blend with the original 1920s and 1930s Spanish Colonial tile we see throughout the Flats. The Commission wants to know the new roof doesn’t look like a patch. We submit the product data and samples so the review goes through the first time.
You plan the job differently when the homeowner is living in the house. We stage materials in a single location, use magnetic sweepers to pick up stray nails daily, protect landscaping with plywood where we walk, and keep the roof tarped at the end of every workday. Debris chutes direct material off the roof without raining down on patios or pool decks. If you’re in 90212 or 90210 and living at home during the work, we’ll lay out the staging and traffic plan before we start. You’ll know where our crew parks, where the dumpster sits, and how we keep your garage and driveway accessible.
A roof is measured in squares, which are 100-square-foot sections. A 4,000-square-foot roof is 40 squares. When you compare bids, look at the scope, not just the price. One bid might price the decking replacement you know you need, and another might leave it out until it’s “discovered” on week two. Our bids are line-item: squares of roofing, squares of decking allowance, lineal feet of flashing, permit fee, Architectural Commission submittal. If another bid is missing those lines, it’s not an apples-to-apples comparison. We’ll walk through any competitor bid with you and point out what’s missing.
If you’re deciding between repair and replacement, or you have a bid that doesn’t match what another contractor quoted, call (866) 942-4187. We’ll give you a written quote and explain exactly what’s in it and what’s not.
