Fast, Reliable Roofing Across Redondo Beach
Roof repair in Redondo Beach typically runs $400-$1,800, while a full roof replacement on a 1950s stucco home here usually lands between $8,000 and $20,000. Those are the numbers most homeowners in 90277 and 90278 need before they’ll even pick up the phone. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, and we’ve been doing Roofing work along this stretch of the South Bay long enough to know what the salt air does to a roof deck, and what the Coastal Commission wants to see in a permit folder. Call (877) 610-1318 and Tom or one of his sons will walk you through what your roof actually needs, not what a sales script says it needs.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Redondo Beach’s Preferred Roofing Company
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and he still answers his own phone. That matters in a town like Redondo Beach, where neighbors talk, and a contractor’s name travels faster than a riviera sunset on The Esplanade. Whether you need a new roof or driveway and pavers in Redondo Beach, reputation is everything here. We’re owner-operated, not a franchise dispatching strangers. Tom publishes his name, his address, and his license number. Look it up before you sign anything. We want you to.
Our crews work the North Redondo flats off Artesia Boulevard the same way they work the hill streets south of PCH heading toward Palos Verdes. We know where the marine layer sits longest, which blocks get the worst wind off Santa Monica Bay, and which 1960s garden apartment buildings in 90278 have soft-story retrofit obligations that complicate a reroof. That local knowledge is why homeowners keep calling us back for everything from roofing to Redondo Beach home additions and ADU projects, and why a written 90-Day Done Right Promise backs every job. If it’s not done right, Tom comes back and makes it right. One call.
Our Roofing Services in Redondo Beach
Roof Repair
Most of the repair calls we take in Redondo Beach start with a stain on the ceiling that showed up after a winter storm. Roof repair here runs $400-$1,800 depending on what we find once we get under the shingles. On older wood-frame homes in 90278, the culprit is often a cracked pipe boot or a failed valley flashing where decades of salt moisture have eaten through standard galvanized steel. We use marine-grade fasteners and stainless flashings as our baseline, because anything less in this climate is a callback waiting to happen.

Roof Replacement & Installation
A full roof replacement in Redondo Beach runs $8,000-$20,000 for a typical post-WWII stucco home. The spread depends on tear-off layers, decking condition, and whether the house sits within the Coastal Commission overlay that runs through much of 90277. When we replace a roof on a 1950s single-family in the avenues near Aviation Park, we’re usually pulling two or sometimes three layers of old composition shingle. That extra tear-off labor affects the final number, and we’ll show you exactly where every dollar goes before work starts.

Metal Roofing
Metal roofing in Redondo Beach starts around $15,000 and can reach $40,000 for standing seam systems on larger homes in southern 90277. Given how aggressively the salt-laden wind off the bay corrodes exposed steel, standing seam metal actually makes a lot of sense here, provided it’s specced with a marine-grade substrate. We install GAF products, which means when we write “metal roof” on your contract, you’ll know exactly what brand is going on your house, not a mystery panel off a van.

Tile Roofing
Homes along the Esplanade and the high streets approaching the Palos Verdes foothills lean heavily on barrel tile and flat concrete tile. Tile roof repair in Redondo Beach runs $600-$2,500, and the big variable is whether the underlayment has failed beneath the tile. A lot of tile roofs here were installed in the 1970s and 1980s with felt underlayments that simply weren’t built for four decades of persistent coastal moisture. We can repair individual tiles or do full underlayment replacements without tearing down the tile profile your home was designed around.

Trusted Brands We Service in Redondo Beach
We’re selective about what goes on a Redondo Beach roof, and we name those brands in writing. GAF shingles and underlayments are a mainstay for asphalt roofs here because they stand up to coastal sun and moisture better than off-label alternatives. When a job calls for metal or specialty flashing, we lean on marine-rated materials specified for salt-air exposure. And if your roof project ties into a Windows & Doors in Redondo Beach replacement, we’ll coordinate so the flashing, trim, and sealants all work as one system instead of four separate crews making four separate messes. Stocking common parts locally here means we’re not waiting on a warehouse in Riverside to ship one ridge cap.
Common Roofing Problems We See in Redondo Beach Homes
- Salt-corroded flashings and fasteners. The onshore wind off Santa Monica Bay carries enough salt to turn a standard galvanized nail into rust powder in a decade. We see failed pipe boots and chimney flashings on homes throughout 90277 and 90278 long before the shingles themselves wear out. Using marine-grade stainless hardware is not an upsell here; it’s the difference between a 12-year repair and a 30-year repair.
- Layered composition roofs on 1950s stucco homes. Many of the post-WWII single-family homes north of PCH in Redondo Beach have two or three layers of old shingle stacked under whatever was last nailed on. That added weight stresses the rafters, and tear-off on those jobs takes longer, which is why we insist on a physical inspection before quoting.
- Failed tile underlayments on older coastal estates. Barrel tile roofs in southern 90277 and along the Esplanade often look fine from the street while the felt beneath is crumbling. We replace the underlayment and reset the tile, which costs $600-$2,500 per repair area and saves you from the full roof replacement the out-of-town guy would quote without looking.
- Moisture staining on 1960s garden apartment buildings. The wood-frame multi-family stock in inland 90278 has flat or low-slope sections that pond water after heavy rain. If the building is also soft-story retrofit-coded, a reroof may need to coordinate with structural work. We sequence that conversation early so you’re not paying for a roof only to have the retrofit crew tear part of it off next spring.

Yes, we work across all of Redondo Beach, from the coastal neighborhoods in 90277 including the Esplanade and Riviera areas, through to North Redondo and the inland 90278 neighborhoods around Aviation Park and Artesia Boulevard. Our crews know the difference in housing stock between the two ZIP codes, which saves time when we’re scoping your roof.
For homes in the coastal overlay, yes. A reroof that exists within Coastal Commission jurisdiction can add months and a second layer of state review on top of city permitting. We’ve handled these projects, and we’ll tell you at the estimate whether your home is inside the overlay, what the timeline looks like, and who pulls which permits. The permit inspector works for you, not for me, and that’s exactly why we like him.
Two reasons: marine-grade materials and double permitting. Salt air off Santa Monica Bay forces us to spec stainless fasteners, coated flashings, and corrosion-resistant underlayments that a Torrance or Gardena contractor can skip. Add Coastal Commission review on many 90277 properties, and the all-in cost lands higher. We’ll show you the line items, and remember, you can get a free second opinion from us on any estimate you’ve already got. Call (877) 610-1318.
Every roof we install in Redondo Beach carries our written 90-Day Done Right Promise. If something isn’t done right, one call brings Tom back to make it right. Beyond that, the manufacturer warranties from GAF and our other named brands apply as stated in your contract. If you’re comparing warranties, bring us the other guy’s paperwork and we’ll read it with you line by line. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate.
