We use proven materials such as TPO, PVC, EPDM, Modified Bitumen, and BUR to deliver strength, energy efficiency, and long-lasting protection. Our installation process includes proper substrate preparation, insulation setup, and drainage design to prevent ponding water and premature wear. This service is ideal if you want a dependable roofing system that supports long-term value and operational efficiency for your building.

Commercial Roof Sealing
Roof sealing is a cost-effective way to reinforce your existing roof and increase its resistance to weathering, UV exposure, and leaks. We apply premium-grade silicone, acrylic, or elastomeric coatings that create a seamless protective barrier across the roof surface. This service helps lower indoor cooling costs, prevents moisture intrusion, and adds years to your roof’s lifespan without a full renovation. It is an excellent fit for businesses looking to renew their roof’s performance and stretch their capital budget further.
Commercial Reflective Roofing Installation

This service is a strong choice for property owners seeking operational efficiency and modern energy savings.

Roof Leaks and Water Damage
Roof leaks are the leading cause of roofing-related insurance claims in the U.S. It accounts for about 40% of all homeowner claims, according to the Insurance Information Institute. Leaks result from damaged or missing shingles, deteriorated flashing, clogged gutters, or failed sealants around roof penetrations.
Southern California’s climate causes roofing materials to expand and contract. This cycle forms gaps that allow water to seep through. Unaddressed leaks can lead to mold growth within 48 hours, damage insulation, weaken drywall, and compromise the building’s electrical and structural systems.
Damaged Flashing
90% of all roof leaks on chimneys, skylights, and valleys are caused by damaged flashing. Persistent sun exposure and thermal expansion cause flashing materials to degrade, warp, or separate from adjoining surfaces. Poor installation or lack of roof maintenance intensifies these issues. We repair flashings by removing compromised materials and installing new, corrosion-resistant flashings. After this, we seal the roof with UV-stable compounds to ensure long-lasting protection.
Roof Ventilation Issues
The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that poor ventilation reduces the roof's lifespan by up to 20%. It also increases cooling costs by as much as 15%. In Torrance’s warm climate, insufficient airflow allows attic temperatures to soar above 150°F. This speeds up shingle aging and promotes condensation. We provide ventilation solutions based on precise calculations. For an average home, we recommend 1 square foot of vent area per 150 square feet of attic space. This includes the installation of ridge, soffit, or powered vents to maintain optimal airflow and extend the life of your roofing system.
Damaged or Missing Shingles
In Torrance, harsh UV rays, thermal cycling, and wind gusts that exceed 50 mph cause shingles to crack, curl, and lose their granules. Missing shingles expose the underlayment and roof deck to moisture. This increases the risk of leaks and rot on the roof. Even a single missing shingle can reduce a roof’s effectiveness by up to 30%. We repair damaged roofs through color-matched replacements. We can also upgrade your roof to impact- and UV-resistant shingles for a longer lifespan.
Gutter & Drainage Issues
Gutter and drainage problems affect nearly 60% of homes in urban Southern California. Most gutter issues are caused by accumulated debris. Inefficient or clogged gutters can cause rainwater to overflow, backing up under shingles and leading to fascia rot, mold, and even foundation erosion. Blocked gutters cause ice dams to form, damaging the roof's edges.
To repair damaged gutters, we clean them and install new gutter guards. Keeping the system properly sized and sloped enables it to handle heavy rainfall better.
Storm and Weather Damage
Wind that blows 80 mph can lift or tear off shingles and flashing. Hail causes pitting and granule loss that shortens the roof's lifespan. The National Weather Service said winds over 45 mph can dislodge roofing materials. Hail an inch small can cause visible roof damage. We assess your roof for hail damage and provide quick solutions to the roof problem. We also do emergency tarping and thorough documentation on the roofing issue for insurance claim support.
What Types of Materials Do We Use on Commercial Roofs?
Asphalt Shingle Roofing
75% of residential roofing installations in Torrance are made of fiberglass or organic mat base. Available in architectural and three-tab configurations, these systems typically provide 20-30 years of service life when properly maintained. Asphalt shingles are exposed to intense UV radiation and thermal cycling. We work with premium manufacturers like GAF, CertainTeed, and Owens Corning for replacement parts.
Metal Roofing Systems
Metal roofs are durable, energy efficient, and fire-resistant. It's typically made of aluminum, steel, copper, and zinc. These materials last up to 70 years when maintained right. Metal roofs reflect solar heat and reduce cooling cost. We repair metal roofs through welding and soldering. We also replace metal panels and apply special anti-rust coatings.
Clay & Concrete Tile Roofing
Clay and concrete tiles are both great for South California’s weather because of their UV resistance. However, they’re also harder to repair because of their complex support structure. Clay and concrete tiles are prone to cracking, mortar deterioration, and underlayment failure. They need careful handling and sourcing of matching replacement materials from specialty manufacturers and salvage suppliers.
Flat & Low Slope Roofing
Flat or low-slope roofing systems are constructed with modified bitumen, EPDM rubber, and TPO. These materials rely on membrane integrity rather than gravity-based water shedding. Flat and low-sloped roofs are uniquely challenged because they’re prone to water ponding. It’s also prone to thermal movement, foot traffic damage, and UV degradation. As an result, it needs more frequent inspection and maintenance. We service flat roofs with hot-applied modified bitumen, fully adhered single-ply membranes, and liquid-applied coatings. We also use special equipment like hot air welders and seaming irons for the proper installation and repair of flat and low-sloped roofs.
Wood Shake & Shingle Roofing
Wood roofing provides natural insulation and a rustic aesthetic to the home. However, it’s a fire hazard and prone to insect infestation. Wood roofs are also prone to moisture deterioration. Cedar shakes and shingles have stricter building code restrictions. They need regular cleaning, fire-retardant treatments, and quick replacement of damaged sections to prolong their lifespan. We install sustainably-sourced, premium cedar shakes applied with the right treatments to homes in Torrance.
Composite and Synthetic Roofing
Modern composite materials replicate natural materials while providing superior weather resistance. Synthetic slate, composite wood shakes, and polymer-based shingles are some examples. Modern composite materials typically offer 30 to 50-year warranties. They offer excellent UV stability, thermal performance, and impact tolerance while weighing significantly less than their natural counterparts. We work with the leading synthetic roofing materials manufacturers: DaVinci Roofscapes, Boral, and EcoStar to offer top-notch services to our Torrance clients.

We fix membrane punctures, seam failures, and drainage issues using the right method for each roof type. Torching for modified bitumen, adhesive patches for EPDM, and heat welding for TPO/PVC.

This saves energy bills and extends the roof's service life.

For metal roofs, we fix panel displacement and fastener issues, which make up 25% of California wind-related roof claims. Our repairs meet or exceed industry standards for wind and impact resistance.
