Most roofs that leak do not need replacing. They need someone to find the actual entry point, which is often a few feet from the stain on your ceiling, and fix it so it stays fixed.
Water travels. It gets in at a cracked tile, a lifted shingle, a rusted pipe flashing or a gap where the roof meets a wall, then runs along the underlayment or a rafter before it shows up inside. We trace it from the stain back to the source, from the attic and from the roof.
On tile roofs, a repair usually means lifting the tile around the problem, fixing the underlayment or flashing beneath, replacing the broken pieces and resetting the rest. On shingle roofs, it means replacing the damaged shingles and sealing them in so the next wind does not take them too.
If what we find is bigger than a repair, we say so, and we show you the photos. You decide what happens next.
Know the signs
Call for a Repair When You See
A ceiling stain
Even a dry one. It shows where water reached, not where it got in.
Tile or shingles in the yard
After an Antelope Valley wind, look around the house. Pieces on the ground mean a gap on the roof.
Cracked tile you can see
Concrete tile cracks from foot traffic, impact and age. Each crack is a path for water.
Rust around vents
Pipe and vent flashing rusts through long before the roof around it fails.
Gaps at a wall or chimney
Where the roof meets stucco or a chimney, the flashing is often the first thing to go.
A musty attic
A damp smell or dark spots on the roof boards from inside mean water is already getting through.

Inside a tile roof
Five Layers, and Which One Keeps You Dry
Tap a layer to see it on one of our own jobs.
The deck
Plywood or OSB nailed to the rafters. Soft or broken boards are replaced once the old roof is off, before anything else goes down.
The underlayment
The waterproof sheet. Tile lets wind-driven rain through; this layer carries it to the eave. On an old tile roof, it is usually what has failed.
The flashing
Metal at walls, chimneys, pipes and valleys, where the roof stops being one flat plane. Most leaks start at a joint like this.
The battens
Strips across the slope that the tile hangs on, so each course sits straight and water can drain under it.
The tile
Concrete or clay, laid course by course. It takes the sun and most of the rain, and protects the layers under it.
Local rules
Small Repairs and the Permit Rules
Replacing a few tiles or resealing a flashing is a repair. A re-roof is different: in Palmdale it is permitted work with a sheathing inspection after tear-off and a final before the permit closes. If your roof needs more than a repair, we tell you before we start.
