1940s–60s ranch and mid-century homes on the flats, post-and-beam houses with low-slope roofs, larger traditional and Spanish homes and hillside houses south of Ventura make up most of Sherman Oaks. The roofs that go with those houses are architectural shingle on the ranch flats, torch-down or built-up membranes on mid-century low-slope sections and room additions, concrete and clay tile on the larger traditional and Spanish homes, and Class A assemblies on the hillside parcels.
Ventura Boulevard splits the job: on the flats north of it the roofs are simple ranch gables that re-roof in two or three days; south of it the canyon streets leave no room for a dumpster, material goes up by hand, and the assembly has to be Class A.
Shingle tear-off and re-roof on the 1950s ranches, flat-section leak repairs where a low-slope addition meets the main roof, and tile underlayment replacement on the south-of-Ventura homes are the jobs we see most in Sherman Oaks. A replacement from Roofing RIB Company starts with a full tear-off to the deck, a per-sheet decking allowance written into the quote, synthetic underlayment with self-adhered membrane in the valleys and at every penetration, new flashing and vents, and then the covering you choose: a Class A cool-roof architectural shingle, concrete or clay tile, standing seam metal, or a TPO or torch-down membrane on the flat sections.
Permits go to LADBS at the Van Nuys Development Services Center, 6262 Van Nuys Blvd, about ten minutes up Van Nuys Boulevard from our base. LADBS issues most shingle re-roofs as an express permit (no plan check) when the covering is Class A or B and weighs under 6 lb/sq ft over solid sheathing; tile and other heavier coverings go through the standard permit process. Within the City of Los Angeles, a residential roof replacement covering more than 50% of the roof area must use a cool roof product labeled and certified by the Cool Roof Rating Council. The hills south of Ventura Boulevard sit largely inside the City's Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, where LADBS requires a Class A roof covering; we check the exact parcel on ZIMAS before quoting.
Every layer off, debris hauled the same day, nails swept from the yard and driveway with magnets.
Rotted plywood or skip sheathing replaced at a per-sheet price that is in the quote before we start, so Sherman Oaks homeowners never get a surprise on day one.
Synthetic underlayment, ice-and-water membrane in the valleys and around chimneys, skylights and pipes, new drip edge, flashing and attic vents.
Cool-roof architectural shingle for the ranches and bungalows, tile for the Spanish and traditional homes, standing seam for modern rebuilds, TPO or torch-down for the flat sections.
LADBS express permit for shingle, plan check for heavier tile. We pull the permit, schedule the final and hand you the closed permit.
Manufacturer material warranty registered in your name plus our written workmanship warranty, both delivered with the closed permit.

| Scope | Planning range | What's included |
|---|---|---|
| Architectural shingle re-roof | $24,000–$50,000 | Full tear-off of a 1,500–2,500 sq ft roof, synthetic underlayment, new flashing and vents, CRRC-rated cool-roof shingle where the City requires it, permit and haul-away. |
| Per square (100 sq ft), shingle | $1,200–$2,400 | Installed, including tear-off and disposal; the spread is roof pitch, number of layers, decking repairs and access. |
| Concrete tile | $20–$36 per sq ft | New concrete tile over new underlayment and battens; plan-check permit because tile exceeds the 6 lb/sq ft express-permit limit. |
| Clay tile | $30–$50 per sq ft | Mission or S-tile over new underlayment; the historic Spanish homes in Burbank and Toluca Lake sit here. |
| Standing seam metal | $26–$42 per sq ft | Concealed-fastener steel or aluminum panels. |

Roofing RIB Company is based in Sherman Oaks and installs new roofs across the neighborhood, from the ranch flats north of Ventura Boulevard to the hillside streets south of it. One crew does the tear-off, decking, underlayment, flashing and the new covering, and we pull the permit and book the final inspection. You get an itemized written quote after a free inspection.
Yes. Standing seam metal plans at $26–$42 per sq ft installed in 2026 figures. It suits the mid-century and modern homes and the hillside houses where a long-life roof matters most; on a 1950s ranch, a cool-roof architectural shingle at $24,000–$50,000 for a typical re-roof is usually the better value. The metal roofing page covers panels and finishes.
Yes. New concrete tile plans at $20–$36 per sq ft and clay tile at $30–$50 per sq ft installed. On many of the larger Spanish and traditional homes south of Ventura the tile itself is still sound and only the underlayment under it has worn out, so the job is often a lift and relay: the tile comes off, new underlayment goes down and the same tile goes back. The inspection tells you which one your roof needs.
Many Sherman Oaks homes have a low-slope addition, patio cover or garage conversion tied into the main roof, usually modified bitumen (torch-down). We quote it with the re-roof so the transition is rebuilt once: torch-down at $9–$16 per sq ft or white TPO at $10–$18 per sq ft installed. If only the flat section is failing, see flat roof repair in Sherman Oaks.
A roofer, not a salesperson, walks every slope, checks the flashing, penetrations and attic side, and photographs what they find. You get a straight answer on repair versus replacement.
An itemized written quote for the roof replacement: tear-off, decking allowance, underlayment, covering, flashing, vents, permit and haul-away. The price in the quote is the price on the invoice unless you change the scope.
We pull the permit, protect the property, complete the work in the quoted window and schedule the final inspection. You get the closed permit and the material warranty paperwork at the end.
Tell us the age of the roof, the material and anything you have noticed, and a roofer will call to schedule a free inspection at your Sherman Oaks home.

The Roofing RIB Company team came out to look at our roof since we had a few leaks. He was really professional and explained the whole roof structure and what caused the leak. We ended up replacing the whole roof because it was almost 35 years old; the price was reasonable compared to the other quotes we got. Would definitely recommend Roofing RIB Company.
I've had many roofers come to check my roof and got a wide variety of quotes, sales gimmicks and outright lies. This company was nothing like that. They called right back when I asked for a quote and made an appointment. When they showed up, they took measurements, explained their process, and gave me a copy of their insurance and bond documents, and a clear and simple contract that made sense. They came on the agreed day and finished the job quickly and efficiently. It looks good.
Can't be happier. They did my roof and solar system combo deal with no-APR financing.
Planning range for 2026: $24,000–$50,000 for a typical 1,500–2,500 sq ft shingle re-roof; tile and metal run higher. In Sherman Oaks the usual scope is 1940s–60s ranch and mid-century homes on the flats, and a two-layer tear-off, decking repairs or hillside access move the quote within the range. The itemized written quote follows a free inspection.
2–4 days on site for shingle, 1–2 weeks for tile or metal. On 1940s–60s ranch and mid-century homes on the flats, most shingle roofs are dried in on day one and finished within two to four days; tile and metal take longer.

It depends on the house. In Sherman Oaks that usually means architectural shingle on the ranch flats, torch-down or built-up membranes on mid-century low-slope sections and room additions, concrete and clay tile on the larger traditional and Spanish homes, and Class A assemblies on the hillside parcels. We quote the option that fits the house and the budget.
