Living blocks from the Pacific means your roof absorbs salt-laden air every single day. That invisible assault corrodes flashing, pits standard fasteners, and grinds down shingle surfaces far faster than homeowners realize. We use marine-rated components and coastal-tested materials so your Hermosa Beach roof performs the way it should for decades, not just until the next El Nino season.
We've watched homeowners re-roof twice in eight years because someone used inland-grade products a block from the strand. Every material we install is chosen specifically for salt, humidity, and coastal wind exposure.
Stainless steel fasteners, marine-grade sealants, and UV-resistant membranes are standard on every Hermosa job. We don't upsell coastal protection because it's already baked into our spec.
We understand how marine fog, onshore wind, and reflected UV interact to age roofs differently than even a few miles inland. That knowledge shapes every product and method we choose.
Your written estimate details every cost before work starts. No vague allowances, no surprise fees at the end. The price we quote is the price you pay.
Beach bungalows near the Strand, multi-story homes on the hill, and commercial storefronts on Pier Avenue - each property faces distinct roofing pressures and we address them all.
Aluminum standing-seam panels shrug off salt corrosion and look sharp on Hermosa's contemporary beach homes. They carry Class A fire ratings and last 40+ years with minimal maintenance.
Flat and low-slope roofs on garages, additions, and multi-level Hermosa homes need membranes that resist constant humidity and occasional standing water. We install TPO and EPDM systems rated for coastal service.
Ocean moisture finds its way through every gap. We seal roof decks with liquid barriers and waterproof membranes that block the persistent dampness coastal properties face year-round.
"Our beach house roof was corroding at every screw head. They replaced the entire system with stainless fasteners and aluminum panels. Three years into salty winters and not a speck of rust."
What Hermosa homeowners want to know about protecting their coastal investment.
Salt particles in the marine air settle on every exposed component and cause corrosion that you can't see until it's advanced. Standard galvanized fasteners, basic sealants, and economy shingles simply weren't designed for this level of exposure. They fail 30-50% sooner near the water.
Aluminum standing-seam metal and concrete tile both perform exceptionally in Hermosa's environment. Metal is lighter and resists corrosion naturally, while tile offers excellent longevity and a classic coastal aesthetic. We'll recommend the best match for your home's structure and style.

"We had water stains appear after a heavy fog cycle, which seemed bizarre. They found the source was degraded flashing that looked fine from the ground. Fixed it in one visit - no more mystery stains."

Yes. Hermosa's narrow lots and dense construction are familiar territory. We use compact equipment, protect adjacent properties with barriers, and stage materials without blocking streets or driveways.
Most Hermosa Beach residential re-roofs range from $10,000 to $30,000 depending on home size, roof pitch, and material selection. Coastal-grade materials cost more upfront but save significantly on premature replacement. We itemize everything in your estimate.
That depends on the roof's age and the extent of damage. If the issue is localized and your roof is under 15 years old, a targeted repair usually makes sense. We'll assess honestly and tell you when patching is smart and when it's time for a new system.
