Call (877) 610-1318 and a live person answers, day or night.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is La Verne’s Preferred Roofing Company
We’ve built our name in La Verne by doing what we say we’ll do, on paper, before the first nail moves. Homeowners here have dealt with big outfits that quote low on the phone and show up with a different number. We don’t work that way. Every scope, every material allowance, every change comes as a written change order. If it wasn’t written down, it didn’t happen. That’s why residents on streets like Oakwood Lane and live oaks neighborhoods north of Foothill Boulevard call us back for their second and third projects.
Tom Barrett publishes his name, his address, and his license number. You can look all of it up before you sign anything. Our crews are background-checked and uniformed, and they carry the Barrett & Sons name on their shirts. Most days you’ll find Tom or one of his sons on the job site, not a rotating cast of subcontractors. Response time to La Verne is quick because we’re based right out of the Los Angeles office, with crews scheduled locally. Roof inspections and estimates are free, and every eligible roof gets permits pulled and inspections signed.
We also stand behind the work with the 90-Day Done Right Promise, written into every contract. If something wasn’t done right, one call brings Tom back to make it right.
Our Roofing Services in La Verne
Roof Repair
Roof repair in La Verne usually runs $400 to $1,800 depending on what we find. The common culprits in 91750 are lifted shingles from Santa Ana winds, cracked flashing around chimneys on the older bungalows near Bonita Avenue, and valley metal that’s pulled loose on post-war ranch homes. We don’t patch over a problem and call it done. We find why the leak started, fix that, and give you a written report with photos.
If you’ve got an active leak, call us. We’ll prioritize it and get to your street quickly, whether you’re up in the northern foothills or down near the 210. Every roof repair starts with a free inspection.
Roof Replacement & Installation
A full roof replacement in La Verne typically lands between $8,000 and $20,000, shaped by square footage, pitch, tear-off layers, and whether your home sits inside one of the foothill Fire Hazard Severity Zones north of the 210. That last one matters. Homes in those zones must meet CBC Chapter 7A standards, which means Class A roofing assemblies and ember-resistant vents. We handle that paperwork and the material specs, and we don’t skip a required detail. Permits are pulled, inspections are signed, and you get a written line-item scope before any work begins.
We tear off down to the decking. We don’t reroof over rotted plywood or old felt. The inspection happens, the inspector signs off, and you get the paperwork.
Metal Roofing
Metal roofing in La Verne costs anywhere from $15,000 for a simple standing seam roof on a ranch tract home to $40,000 on a larger custom hillside build. Standing seam panels handle our heat and wind far better than three-tab asphalt, which is why we see more of them going up on newer homes in the northern foothills. A properly installed metal roof also cuts down on the wildfire ember risk for homes near the boundary of the San Gabriel Mountains.
The price difference comes from panel gauge, seam profile, underlayment, and roof pitch. We’ll walk you through the material options and the numbers before you commit to anything.
Tile Roofing
Tile roof repair in La Verne usually runs $600 to $2,500 when we’re replacing cracked or slipped tiles and re-bedding flashings. The clay barrel and concrete tile roofs common on Spanish-style homes here hold up well against the summer heat, but the underlayment beneath them does not last forever. We see 40-year-old homes with beautiful tile and failing felt. A full tile roof replacement runs in that same $8,000-to-$20,000 range when the decking and underlayment need to be rebuilt. We’ll tell you honestly whether you need a repair or a re-roof, and the estimate is free either way.

Trusted Brands We Service in La Verne
We install materials from GAF and CertainTeed on asphalt roofs, and we routinely work with standing seam metal systems built for the heat and wind of the inland foothills. You get a named brand with a verifiable product warranty, not a mystery product off the back of a van. We also handle Windows & Doors in La Verne when a roofing project turns into a bigger exterior refresh, and our Fence Installation in La Verne crews can replace wind-damaged fencing the same season. One call, one written scope. If you need new gutters with your roof, we install those too, with the leaf guards sized for the oak and sycamore canopies in neighborhoods like Marshall Canyon. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll come out to look at the whole system.
Common Roofing Problems We See in La Verne Homes
- Santa Ana wind lift on asphalt shingles: Fall winds regularly peel back or completely remove three-tab shingles on homes across 91750, especially on street-facing slopes that take the wind head-on. We re-seal and replace those, then check the nail pattern on the rest of the roof
- Failed underlayment under tile roofs: La Verne’s summer heat bakes the felt under clay and concrete tile roofs. By year 25 or 30, that felt is dry, crumbled, and leaking even though the tiles look perfect from the street.
- Ember intrusion on foothill homes: Homes north of the 210 that back toward the mountains sit in mapped fire hazard zones. Unrated vents and open gaps in roof-to-wall intersections let wind-blown embers in during wildfire season. We retrofit ember-resistant vents and close those gaps.
- Chimney and skylight flashing leaks: The older craftsman bungalows near Old Town and Bonita Avenue have original brick chimneys that move slightly with our heat-and-rain cycles. The flashing pulls away from the brick, and the leak starts small. By the time you see the ceiling stain, the decking is already wet. We’re in Roofing daily in La Verne, and we fix it from the top down.
Pricing for Roofing in La Verne, CA
Roof repair in La Verne runs $400 to $1,800. A full roof replacement runs $8,000 to $20,000. Metal roof installation runs $15,000 to $40,000. Tile roof repair runs $600 to $2,500.

And we honor the published standing offers: $40 off any repair over $200, a free second opinion on any written estimate, no trip charge inside Los Angeles County, and a permanent 10% senior and veteran discount.

FAQs - Roofing in La Verne
We schedule roof inspections across La Verne every week, and active leaks get prioritized, especially after the Santa Ana winds knock a branch or a ridge line loose. The quickest way to get a real answer is to call (877) 610-1318 and tell us what you’re seeing. A live person answers.
Yes. We cover all of 91750, from the historic bungalows near Old Town and Bonita Avenue to the ranch tract homes through mid-city and the newer custom builds north of the 210 toward the San Gabriel foothills. We also go into the hillside areas with mapped debris-flow or alluvial-fan hazard designations, which often require county geotechnical review for any grading-heavy roof or ADU project.
Yes. Wind-damaged roofs, active leaks, and storm-related damage all get priority scheduling. We document the damage, walk you through what the insurance claim needs, and give you a written scope before any repair begins. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll get someone to your roof quickly.
Yes, for homes north of the 210, it often is. That’s because those homes sit inside California’s High and Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones, which triggers Chapter 7A requirements for Class A roofing assemblies, ember-resistant vents, and sometimes ignition-resistant cladding at roof intersections. The material costs are higher, the permit package is more complex, and the inspection requirements are stricter. We price that honestly in the written estimate and tell you exactly which line items come from those code requirements.
Every roofing job carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If something wasn’t done right, Tom Barrett comes back and makes it right with one call. Material warranties from GAF or CertainTeed are included and registered in your name so you get the full manufacturer coverage. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll put the full scope and warranty terms in writing before you sign.
