Roof Tear-Off and Structural Rebuild in Los Angeles

In late May 2025, our team at Roof Repairs CA was called out to 2246 Workman St in Los Angeles to assess a roofing system that was far beyond basic repairs. The homeowner reported significant leaking, interior water damage, and visible sagging in the roofline. Our inspection revealed that a full tear-off and structural rebuild was necessary to ensure safety and long-term integrity.

The original roofing system was heavily deteriorated with multiple failed patches and layers. Shingles were lifting and torn, exposing the decking to weather for years. Beneath the surface, we discovered extensive plywood rot and compromised rafters in the attic that had to be completely replaced. Due to these structural issues, it was clear that the best course of action was a full rebuild.

On May 31st, we began the tear-off process, carefully removing all damaged shingles, underlayment, and decking. Our crew replaced the entire surface with brand-new plywood sheathing and rebuilt the structural framing from the attic upward. Once the frame was sound, we installed a new underlayment system and topped it with fresh, durable asphalt shingles in a modern gray tone.

By June 2nd, the attic had also been inspected and reinforced. Light now entered through properly sealed vents, and insulation was prepped for reinstallation. This home is now safer, drier, and fully protected against the elements, with roofing work built to last for decades.
