Fast, Reliable Roofing Across Irvine
A roof leak in Irvine is rarely a small problem for long. Tile underlayment fails, Santa Ana winds lift a section of flashing, and within one wet season you’re looking at water staining across a ceiling in Woodbridge or Northwood. We’ve repaired and replaced roofs in every Irvine village, and we know how the ARC process works before the first shingle comes off. If you need a roofer who shows up when he says he will, call (877) 610-1318 and Tom or one of his sons will answer.
Roof repair in Irvine typically costs $400 to $1,800, and a full roof replacement runs $8,000 to $20,000 depending on the material and roof complexity. Those are honest numbers for this market, not phone quotes that change at your door.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Irvine’s Preferred Roofing Company
Tom Barrett started this company in 1998, and he still runs it the same way: his name on the truck, his sons on the crew, and his phone number published where anyone can check it. When you call about Roofing in Irvine, you’re talking to the owner, not a call center. That matters when you’re standing under a leaking skylight at 7:00 on a Sunday evening in University Park.
What sets us apart in Irvine is that we understand this city runs on HOA approval. Every village has its own architectural review committee, and they don’t care what the City of Irvine allows if it doesn’t match their design guidelines. We’ve navigated ARC submittals in Quail Hill, Portola Springs, and Great Park. The permit inspector works for you, not for us. That’s why we like him. Our 90-Day Done Right Promise is written on every contract: if it’s not done right, Tom comes back and makes it right, one call.
Crew members who carry the Barrett & Sons name are background-checked and uniformed on every visit. We don’t dispatch strangers. We serve Irvine with the same crew standards we’ve held for over 29 years.
Our Roofing Services in Irvine
Roof Repair
Most repair calls we get in Irvine start with a leak around a pipe boot, valley flashing, or tile that cracked during a Santa Ana wind event. We trace the leak, document what we found with photos, and hand you a written line-item quote before any work starts. Repairs in the 1970s villages like University Park and Woodbridge often involve matching original tile or shingle profiles, which we source locally.

Roof Replacement & Installation
Irvine’s housing stock spans five decades of construction, so replacement jobs vary widely. A 2,400-square-foot home in Westpark needs different underlayment than a Great Park build under current Title 24 energy codes. Roof replacement in Irvine runs $8,000 to $20,000. We pull permits, coordinate with your HOA’s ARC, and every scope change arrives as a written change order before we touch the roof.

Metal Roofing
Standing seam metal is becoming more common in Roofing in Irvine, especially on hillside homes in Quail Hill and Turtle Rock where fire resistance and wind performance matter. Metal roof installation runs $15,000 to $40,000. We install GAF and CertainTeed systems and stand behind the work with our written warranty.

Tile Roofing
Barrel tile and flat concrete tile dominate the older Irvine villages. Tile roof repair runs $600 to $2,500, depending on how many tiles need resetting and whether underlayment has failed. In neighborhoods like Northwood, the HOA requires an exact tile profile match, which means we pull samples and take them to your ARC before submitting the permit package.

Common Roofing Problems We See in Irvine Homes
- Santa Ana wind damage: East-west oriented rooflines in Turtle Rock and Quail Hill catch wind-driven debris, loosening ridge caps and lifting valley flashing. We see the most call volume in the 48 hours after a strong Santa Ana event.
- Deteriorated underlayment under concrete tile: The tile itself can last 50 years, but the felt underneath breaks down in 20 to 25 years, especially on 1970s and 80s builds in Woodbridge and Westpark. By the time you see a ceiling stain, the underlayment has been failing for a while.
- Poor original flashing details at dormer and chimney intersections: We’ve repaired original flashing on University Park homes where builders used materials that corroded in Irvine’s seasonal fog and rain cycles.
- Flat roof ponding on Great Park and Portola Springs builds: Modern developments with flat or low-slope sections collect water when scuppers clog with debris from nearby eucalyptus windbreaks. Standing water accelerates membrane breakdown.
Trusted Brands We Service in Irvine
The materials we install are brands you can look up before you sign: GAF and CertainTeed on roofing systems, and when we’re doing related hardscape work, Belgard and Techo-Bloc pavers. We don’t put mystery brands on your roof. We also keep a local supplier network in Orange County that carries the exact tile profiles, underlayments, and flashing materials Irvine’s HOA villages require, which means fewer days waiting on parts.

Yes. Irvine is one of the most thoroughly HOA-governed cities in the United States. Most roofing projects require both a City of Irvine permit and approval from your village’s architectural review committee. We prepare the ARC submittal, including material profiles, colors, and installation details, and we coordinate the permit inspection. The inspector verifies the work. That’s the system, and we work it every week.
Irvine pricing is in line with the rest of central Orange County. A typical leak repair here runs $400 to $1,800.
