It makes sense to replace your roof when repairs are no longer cost-effective. Signs include frequent or widespread leaks, a roof that is over 20 years old, water that pools and does not drain, or repair costs that approach a third or half the price of a new roof. If the damage is only in one area and the roof still has life left, a commercial roof repair is usually the better choice, and we will let you know. After a free inspection, we give you clear numbers for both options so you can decide based on facts, not a sales pitch. Call us for a free inspection and straightforward advice. Once you know what you need, it is helpful to see what a new roof can offer.
Replacing your roof is a significant investment, and here is what you get in return:
Most commercial buildings in Los Angeles have flat or low-slope roofs, and we install all the common types. We help you choose the right system for your building, your budget, and how you use your roof. Here are the main options:
The Los Angeles sun can be tough on flat roofs and can raise your cooling costs. A reflective roof, like a white TPO or PVC membrane, reflects heat instead of absorbing it. This lowers your energy bills and helps your building meet California’s Title 24 cool roof rules. Since you are already replacing the roof, choosing a reflective system can save you money in the long run. If your current roof is still in good shape, a silicone coating can add a reflective layer for less than a full replacement. We always consider Title 24 so your new roof is compliant from the start.
We look at your roof and give you an honest assessment before you spend a dollar.
We know how LA roofs age and what actually holds up in this climate.

We replace commercial roofs on offices, retail centers, warehouses, multi-unit, and industrial buildings across Los Angeles County. See the areas we cover on our Service Areas page, or browse everything we offer on our Services page. For commercial properties in Orange County, our sister company, OC Roof Kings, handles the same work.
Most commercial roof replacements run about $7.50 to $16 per square foot installed, which varies mainly by the roofing system. Single-ply membranes like TPO and EPDM sit toward the lower end, while PVC and metal cost more. For a 10,000 square foot roof, that often works out to roughly $80,000 to $140,000, though Los Angeles labor and access can move that figure. Tear off, deck repairs, insulation, and permits all factor in. These figures are general estimates based on typical roofing data, not a quote. We give a free inspection and a written estimate so you can see the real number for your building.
Replacing a typical 10,000 to 20,000 square foot roof usually takes 3 to 7 business days if the weather is good. Larger or more complex buildings, or projects needing a lot of tear-off and deck repair, can take 2 to 4 weeks. We work in sections to protect your building’s interior and schedule the job to minimize disruption for your tenants and staff.
In most cases, yes. A full commercial roof replacement requires a building permit, and Title 24 cool roof requirements may apply to the new system. As your licensed contractor, we handle the permit process and make sure the replacement meets current code, so you are not left managing paperwork or worrying about a failed inspection later.
There is no single best material, only the best fit for your building, budget, and goals. TPO is the most popular flat roof membrane and its reflective white surface helps with cooling and Title 24 compliance in Los Angeles. EPDM is durable and proven; PVC handles chemicals and grease well; and metal lasts the longest, at a higher upfront cost. After the inspection, we walk you through the trade offs honestly and recommend the system that makes sense for your property.
It depends on the existing roof. Building codes often require a full tear-off, especially when there are already two layers or the insulation underneath is wet, since covering wet material just traps the problem. In some cases, a recovery is possible if the existing system is sound and dry. We inspect the deck and insulation first, then recommend the approach that gives you a roof that actually lasts, not just the cheapest path today.
Make sure the contractor you hire is licensed and insured. LA Roof Kings is licensed under California Contractor License #600662. Ask about their experience with your type of building and roof system. Request recent commercial references in Los Angeles, and get a detailed, written, itemized quote. Also, check that they will document any storm or wind damage for your insurance. Be careful with anyone who pressures you to make a quick decision or refuses to put details in writing.
If your commercial roof is failing, everything inside your building is at risk, and waiting can make repairs more expensive. Call (310) 919-7587 or request a free inspection. We will give you honest pricing, a clear plan, and a new roof that protects your investment for years to come.
