Roof Repair for a Solar System Installation on Calle Lago, Walnut, CA

As we know, especially here in CA, solar is a great way to cut your energy bill drastically. Not to mention all the benefits of clean for your home instead of from coal and oil. In order to install the panels on the roof, it is necessary to drill into the roof deck to secure them on the roof. Unfortunately, this process can easily create problems with the waterproofing if done incorrectly by solar installers or the condition of the roof is already near its end of life.

It is highly recommended to get your roof assessed by an experienced roofer, not just a solar tech. You can prevent avoidable leaks and water damage after getting brand new solar by making sure the roof is sound and installation is done with waterproofing in mind. Leaving broken tiles and holes in the roofing underlayment is a recipe for disaster.

This Walnut, California house had solar installed fairly recently and during the last rains experienced a new leak right under the panels. Depending on your agreement with you solar company the repairs for this could come out of your own pocket.

Level 1 Roofing took care of the problems and was able to allow the solar energy to flow freely once again.

Clay Tile Repairs Under a Carlsbad Home’s Solar System

Carlsbad is known for its beaches and sun. No better way for your home to take advantage of this than putting solar down to capture the energy from the sun. A roof that appears to be fine can have its age and flaws exposed once solar gets hammered into it. Years of broken tiles and worn out felt underlayment will come to light. It is surprisingly often that we get a call only months after the panels have been installed to come replace the entire or a section of a roof. This process can end up costing more than getting a new roof and solar around the same time.

Tile Roof Repair with Synthetic Underlayment in Lake Elsinore CA

« of 2 »

As a tile roof ages, the concrete or clay tiles will hold up quite well to nature and the sun. Often lasting several decades. Where a tile roof will begin to fail is the felt underlayment. In as little as 10 to 15 years the underlayment can lose much of its flexibility and asphalt emulsion. This means any shift in pressure or heavy rains can cause tears in your waterproofing layer. When Level 1 Roofing prepares an estimate we highly recommend going with the newer and proven synthetic underlayment instead of an asphalt felt. The heat doesn’t deteriorate the synthetic product anywhere near the amount felt does.

This Lake Elsinore homeowner decided to go ahead and do the partial lift and relay repairs with a UDL 50 synthetic waterproofing underlayment. In these types of repairs, we reuse the existing tile where possible and use new or reclaimed tile where needed. The new or reclaimed tiles will not be a perfect match as every tile roof has a different color due to age, sun exposure, moisture, and dust.

Chevron in Beaumont – TPO roof system & Standing Seam Metal

« of 3 »

For this commercial/retail single-ply TPO and standing seam metal new construction roofing project Level 1 Roofing was hired to do the job. We completed the 20 Year GAF NDL warranty for the TPO roof system. This Chevron gas station, convenience store, and car wash is now open to the public of Beaumont and the surrounding communities. This was the commercial property owners first time choosing to try a single-ply roofing system like TPO instead of a built-up asphalt based roof. The reflective and bright white of the TPO roof keeps the roof and building cooler than other traditional roofing methods such as BUR or EPDM. We used a mechanically attached 60 Mil Everguard GAF TPO and accessories to finish this new construction project. At Level 1 Roofing we noticed a large momentum swing toward more environmentally friendly and renewable materials in new construction roofing and tenant improvement projects and plans. Level 1 Roofing hopes to advance that trend as we push towards these better options especially on larger commercial roofing projects. When combining the impact of reduced heat, reduced cooling costs, and reduced landfill waste everyone stands to gain from cleaning roofing and construction.

Shingle Re-Roof on a North Los Angeles 2 Story Home

« of 2 »

This Los Angeles home located in North Hills posed some unique challenges during the re-roof process. For all major projects, Level 1 Roofing will file and make payment for any necessary city or county building permits involving roofing. Many cities and counties have varying unique or different requirements for the permit process. In the case of roof replacement in the city of Los Angeles, a city-approved and permitted waste hauler must remove waste from the job site. The community HOA also has stringent rules on when and where and how long vehicles, or in this case, a waste bin can be parked. This took many calls and emails between us and both the city and the HOA but we were able to get the schedule lined up for everyone to be happy without undue stress upon the homeowner.

The roof itself was simple, we agreed on installing GAF Timberline HD Reflector Series in the Birchwood color with matching Ridglass on the ridges and hips. Tiger Paw synthetic underlayment and pro start starter stripes on the eaves from GAF allowed us to provide an unparalleled lifetime limited warranty from the number one roofing manufacturer in North America. We tore off the old worn out shingle roof system previously installed down to the bare plywood sheathing and put down a quality comp shingle roofing system.

Now the roof is ready for many years of weather stopping service and future solar installation that is planned in the coming weeks.

Low Slope Roof Restoration in Citrus Heights, CA

« of 2 »

This homeowner on Saint Philomena Way in Citrus Heights recently had the roof replaced by a different roofer. Even still the roof was experiencing leaks. Trying to fix the problem, they called us, Level 1 Roofing to solve the issue with the leaks. In order to save the homeowner money and not have to remove and replace the flat roof, we proposed a roof restoration. Using a high solids silicone to completely seal and waterproof the roof for decades to come. Our crews started on the process by identifying laps, corners, and penetrations that have the largest chance of developing into leaks and applied seam sealant material to these areas to ensure water does not penetrate the seams. This material is reinforced with fibers to give these sections extra strength and protection. The silicone roof restoration service we provide allows you to take nearly any low or flat roof and make it perform as well if not better then when it was new. With a warranty of up to 25 years on material and labor, it is no wonder why for this Citrus Heights roof was restored instead of replaced.

Not only does the coating system reflect over 90 percent of the sunlight it also does not store the heat nearly as much as darker roof materials. This means big savings on cooling costs. Especially in a case like this where the HVAC unit is roof-mounted and is directly impacted by the roof temperature. This cool roof also stops much of the heat out of your attic and interior of your house. Making your cooling system work less is key in keeping your energy bill down.
