Roof repair in Malibu

Roofing Solution handles roof repair in Malibu, on houses by the sand and on canyon lots off Kanan Dume Road. 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.

A mark on the ceiling after the first wet week leaves you with two questions: how far does it go, and what will it cost to put right? We answer both with photos of your roof.

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.

Along the coast, up the canyons, and in the newer houses

  • A beach house on the coast. Salt air works on the metal around a chimney or a skylight first, so the mark is often near an outside wall. If you are only there on weekends, ask whoever checks the house to look up at the ceilings.
  • A custom house on a canyon lot off Kanan Dume Road. More than one roof level, so the stain can be a long way from where the water got in. The photos show you which part sits over it, and that part gets its own price.
  • A newer house you have just moved into. If you want to know what is up there before the rain, the free visit tells you, and who installed the roof makes no difference to it.

You are not always there when a Malibu roof starts to leak

The person who looks after the house calls about a drip

Ask them for a photo and the room. Then call us with the address and how we get through the gate, and you can stay where you are.

We stop the water that day and tell you once it has, and the person at the house too if you want.

You come back after a wet week and find the mark yourself

Take a photo of the mark before you do anything else, and note the date you got back. Then call, and the free visit finds where the water got in.

You get a photo of the spot on the roof above that room.

Your tenant texts a photo of the ceiling

If you rent the house out, ask for the room, then call us with the address. We tell the tenant when the water has stopped, if you ask us to.

The photos reach you that evening, with a price for each part.

Flat, tile and shingle roofs along the coast and up the canyons

  • Flat roofs. If your house has one, water that stands after rain finds the seams, and that is what we fix. Our page on flat roof repair goes through coatings and a new roof as well.
  • Tile roofs. If yours is tile, a slipped tile goes back, a cracked one is replaced, and once the layer under them has failed, your own tiles come off and go back on over a new one. Our page on tile roof repair shows the difference.
  • Gutters. We clean, repair and replace gutters.
  • Shingle roofs. Wind takes shingles along the edges first, and we put new ones in. A roof that is past patching gets a roof replacement price next to the repair, and our page on shingle roofs covers both.

Getting a truck up a canyon road and onto your roof

  • How we get up. Tell us whether we reach the roof from a deck, a stair or a ladder, and where the truck can stand on a narrow canyon road.
  • If the drive is gated. If yours is, tell us how we get through and when, and nobody has to wait at the house for us.
  • Nobody moves out. No part of the roof is left open overnight, and you keep living in the house while we work.
  • Each evening. We sweep the yard for nails before we leave, and we don't knock on your neighbors' doors unless you ask us to.

Call (310) 857-2520, or start your building file from wherever you are, and we set the visit around the gate.

Nearby, we also cover Pacific Palisades and Calabasas.
