Choosing a pro

How to choose the best roofing contractor in Los Angeles

Roofing is a specialty license and a permitted job. Verify both before you sign.

1. 1

   Verify the C-39 roofing license

   Roofing is its own CSLB classification, the C-39 Roofing license. Confirm the contractor holds it specifically, rather than relying on a general building license only, and that it is active.

2. 2

   Get itemized bids at a real range

   HomeAdvisor puts a typical asphalt shingle roof replacement between about $5,900 and $13,000, averaging near $9,500 for a standard home. Compare itemized bids in that range and be cautious of quotes far below it.

3. 3

   Confirm the reroof permit

   Los Angeles requires a permit to reroof or replace a roof, with inspection from the Department of Building and Safety. A licensed roofer pulls the permit as part of the job.

4. 4

   Ask about hands-on experience

   CSLB issues a license only after a qualifier documents at least four years of journey-level experience earned within the last ten years, so a license is a real baseline of competence. Ask how long the crew has run this specific type of project.
