Asphalt Shingle Roof Repair and Solar Panel Sealing in Los Angeles

On June 26, 2025, Roof Repairs CA completed a comprehensive asphalt shingle roof repair project at 16433 Romar St in Los Angeles, CA. This home featured a solar panel system installed on a shingle roof, and our team was called in to address concerns with flashing integrity, weatherproofing, and general roof health.

The original installation around the solar panels had several areas where penetrations weren’t adequately sealed, posing a risk for water intrusion. We carefully removed debris and lifted flashing components to inspect underneath for any moisture damage. Our technicians then sealed the base mounts of the solar panels using high-grade roofing sealant to prevent future leaks.

Additionally, we repaired deteriorating flashing around multiple vents and pipe penetrations. In one area, flashing had been left exposed due to poor overlap from prior roof work. We resolved this by installing new flashing and using roofing cement to properly embed it beneath the surrounding shingles. Pipe boots were also replaced as needed to ensure longevity and tight seals.

Our team conducted a full roof inspection to identify cracked or curling shingles. Fortunately, the overall roof was in good shape, but we replaced a few problem shingles to reinforce its durability. This kind of attention to detail ensures our clients won’t need follow-up repairs after the next storm season.
