Contractors quote after seeing the roof, not from a postcode, so where in Downey you are affects who turns up rather than what you are told.
Behind it: the marine layer keeping the north slope damp. Slopes that never get direct sun stay wet for hours after the fog burns off, and that is where moss, lifted shingles and soft decking start.
Most asked for around here: roof replacement
A re-roof is the second-largest cheque most homeowners write on their house, and the one they have the least information about.
Questions
Can I stay in the house while it is done?
Yes, though it is loud, and things will fall off shelves in the garage. Move cars out of the driveway and take anything fragile off the walls of the top floor.
How long should a roof last here?
Rated life and real life are different numbers. Here, ordinary rated life is a fair guide, provided the attic breathes. Ventilation and the quality of the installation move that more than the brand does.
What does a new roof cost in Downey?
Most quotes here for a standard asphalt replacement come in around $11,500 to $28,500. That assumes one layer to remove and sound decking. Every quote you get should say in writing what happens if the decking is not sound.
