Roof repair in Burbank
Roofing Solution handles roof repair in Burbank, from the apartment buildings along Olive Avenue and Glenoaks Boulevard to the ranch houses on the flats and the homes up in the Burbank Hills. Call (310) 857-2520 and you hear back from us within a few hours.
The building visit is free. Your file starts that day, with photos of your roof.

Maybe it is a photo from the back unit, or a brown edge on your own hallway ceiling after a hard rain. Whichever it is, we find where the water gets in and show you before you spend anything.
What every job gets
- The building visit is free. It takes about 45 minutes a roof, and your file starts that day, with photos of your roof.
- The written scope follows within 48 hours. Each part of the roof has its own price, so a board can approve one part now and leave the rest.
- We stop a leak that day. Give us the address and the unit, and we tell you, or the tenant, once the water has stopped.
- Every building gets its own file. It holds a plan of the roof with each problem numbered and photographed, what we did and what it cost.
- Ten years on our workmanship, counted from the day the final page is signed. Where a fault is in our work, we repair it and the building pays nothing. The roofing material has the manufacturer's own warranty, on a second paper in the same file.
When the back unit texts you a photo
The tenant in the back unit texts a photo of the ceiling
Ask for the unit number and whether the drip is steady or only comes with rain, then call us with the address and the unit. You can stay at work.
We go that day, stop the water, and tell the tenant it has stopped if you want us to. From the roof we photograph where it got in, so you see the cause and not only the stain.
Your manager calls about the building on Glenoaks
If your manager runs the building, they can call us and name you as the person who gets the pages. Each one is sent the day it is added, so you both look at the same thing.
Ask your manager for the unit numbers under the wet spots. Two wet ceilings on the same side of a building often share one cause on the roof, and we tell you if that is so.
You see the drip yourself, at home
If your house is one of the ranch houses off Buena Vista Street and the hallway ceiling is marked, put a towel down and call.
If it only shows when it rains hard, it is still a leak. Book the visit for a dry day, and we find where it gets in before the next storm.
Approving the leaking part now and the rest later
- The part over the wet unit comes first. It is priced alone, so a board or an owner can approve that one repair and nothing else.
- The other problems wait with a date. Each has its photo, its price and a date to come back and look, so the board knows what it chose to leave and when it comes back up.
- Each problem has its own price. You see the price of the drain and the price of the low corner each on its own, and decide which the budget carries this year.

Working above people who are still living there
- Getting onto the roof. On an apartment building it is a hatch or an outside stair, and on a ranch house it is a ladder off the driveway. If the hatch is in a locked room, say so when you call.
- Trucks and parking. Before we start, one sheet goes up in the lobby with the work dates and hours and where the trucks will park, so tenants know which spaces to leave.
- Nobody moves out. The roof is opened in parts and no part is left open overnight, so your tenants sleep at home every night of the job.
- The yard, every evening. The yard is swept for nails each evening, which matters in the Rancho Equestrian District, where horses are kept.
Where the water shows up around Burbank
- The flats, off Olive Avenue and Buena Vista Street. Older bungalows and postwar ranch houses, each with a garage standing behind the house. Both roofs get the same sun and rain, so the free visit takes in both.
- Above Glenoaks, in the Burbank Hills. Hillside houses with the Verdugo Mountains behind them. If your house is up here, tell us how the roof is reached, because on a hillside lot one side can stand a full story taller than the other.
- The Rancho Equestrian District. Houses with land and a barn or shed behind them. If yours has a barn or a shed, its roof can be looked at on the same visit, photographed and priced apart from the house.

Flat roofs, tile roofs, shingles and gutters
- Flat roofs over apartments and additions. Water that stands after rain finds the drains and the seams. Our page on flat roof repair covers patches, coatings and new surfaces.
- Spanish and clay tile. The tiles outlast the paper under them. A cracked or slipped tile goes back, and when the paper is finished the tiles come off and go back on new paper. Our tile roof repair page explains both.
- Shingles on the ranch houses. We replace what the wind has lifted or torn. Our shingle roofs page shows when a repair is enough and when roof replacement is the better choice.
- A strip of shops or a workshop. Coatings or a new surface, booked so the shops below can stay open.
- Gutters too. We clean, repair and replace gutters.
Call (310) 857-2520 with the address, and if the roof is leaking now, say so first.
Glendale, North Hollywood and Studio City are a short drive, and we work in all three.
