Roofing Service in Cypress
Alpha & Omega Roofing has been roofing houses in northwest Orange County since 1960, and Cypress is part of that territory. The company is locally owned and locally operated, licensed, bonded and insured. Cypress was built quickly and mostly at once, with close to four in ten homes going up during the 1960s, which means whole streets reach the end of a roof life within a few years of each other. We handle repairs, annual maintenance, inspections and full replacements on houses, condominiums and commercial buildings across the city. We also serve nearby Los Alamitos and Artesia.

Roofing Options for Every Style & Budget
Tile
Clay Tiles
Clay tile is fired, so its color runs through the body and does not wear off the surface. It sheds water well, tolerates sun year after year, and a broken piece can be swapped out on its own. The tradeoff is weight, which is why the framing gets checked before tile goes on a house that never carried it.
Concrete Tiles
Concrete tile costs less than clay and covers more roof per piece. It stands up to wind and sun, and the profiles run from flat and modern to the barrel shapes common on 1970s tract homes. Expect a structural review if your Cypress house was framed for a lighter covering.
Lightweight Tiles
Lightweight tile is made to give a house the tile look without the load. On a 1960s Cypress home with original framing, it is usually the only way to get a tile profile without engineering and reinforcing the roof structure first.
Shingles
Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt shingles remain the most common covering on residential roofs in Cypress. They install quickly, the material is easy to source, and a wind-damaged section can be repaired the same week rather than months later.
Dimensional Shingles
Dimensional shingles are laminated in layers, so they sit thicker on the roof and cast shadow lines that read as depth from the street. They carry longer warranties than three-tab shingles and handle wind better, because more of each shingle is bonded down.
Fiberglass Shingles
Fiberglass shingles are built on a glass-fiber mat, which keeps the weight down and improves the fire rating. On an older roof structure that is already carrying the weight of a previous covering, the lighter option is often the sensible one.

Roof Maintenance in Cypress, CA
A roof gets old in small steps. Sealant at a pipe collar dries out, a ridge cap loosens in the wind, leaves pack into a valley and hold water against the underlayment. Our maintenance visits clear the drainage paths, reseal exposed fasteners, refasten loose pieces and note anything that will need attention in the next year or two. You receive a short written report and photographs after each visit, so the condition of your roof is on record rather than in someone’s memory. Annual agreements set the schedule in advance, so the visits happen before the rain instead of after it.
Roof Repairs in Cypress, CA
A leak rarely announces itself where the water is getting in. Our roofers start at the stain inside, work back up the rafter line and open only what has to be opened to find the entry point. Most Cypress repairs come down to flashing at a wall or chimney, a failed pipe collar, split valley metal, or shingles that lost their seal in a Santa Ana wind event. We replace soft sheathing while the covering is off rather than shingle over it. The finished repair is photographed, and the photographs go to you.
Re-Roofing in Cypress, CA
A full roof replacement is the right call once repairs start coming closer together than the seasons. We remove the old covering down to the wood deck, replace any sheathing that has softened, and renew edge metal, valleys, vents and flashing before the new system is installed. Where the deck needs new sheathing, the City requires radiant barrier material in its place, and we plan the material order around that. You get the specification, the schedule and the warranty terms in writing before the crew arrives.
Roof Inspections in Cypress, CA
Have your roof inspected before you list a house, before you renew a policy, and after any storm that moved debris around your yard. The inspection covers the covering, the flashing, the penetrations, the drainage and the attic side, and it ends in a written report with photographs and a realistic estimate of remaining life. If the roof is sound we will say so and tell you when to look again. If it is not, the report separates what has to be done now from what can be scheduled later.
License and Manufacturer Certifications
Alpha & Omega Roofing, Inc. holds California contractor license #C39-857106. We hold current manufacturer certifications with GAF, Malarkey, Owens Corning, CertainTeed, Versico, FiberTite, and DOW, covering steep-slope shingle and tile work as well as single-ply commercial systems. Those certifications let us register manufacturer-backed warranties of up to 20 years on material and workmanship. We carry workers’ compensation and liability insurance, and our customer reviews are published on the site.
We specify cool-roof rated products that meet the Title 24 aged solar reflectance and thermal emittance values, from the manufacturer lines we are certified to install.
What Cypress Homeowners Should Know Before a Reroof
Cypress issues building permits through the Building Division, which sits inside the Public Works Department at 5275 Orange Avenue. Re-roofs are on the City list of work that needs a permit, and the counter takes checks and cards only.
Two Cypress rules shape how a re-roof runs. The first is in the Building Division design criteria: if the job requires roof sheathing to be replaced, radiant barrier sheathing has to go down in its place, so a tear-off that exposes bad decking changes the material order as well as the price. The second is Cypress Municipal Code Section 13-70(e), which keeps construction noise out of the hours between 8:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. on weekdays, before 9:00 a.m. and after 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, and out of Sunday and federal holidays altogether. Roofing crews like early starts in summer, so the 7:00 a.m. line is worth settling before you agree to a schedule. The City also asks for a completed smoke detector verification form at final inspection.
Cypress housing is concentrated in a narrow band of years. Census figures for 2020 to 2024 give a median year built of 1971, with 38.9 percent of all units dating from the 1960s and 75.8 percent built before 1980. Roofs on those houses have usually been replaced once already, and the second replacement is where old layers, undersized vents and tired flashing tend to surface.
Cypress falls in California Building Climate Zone 8 under Title 24. The City states that in its own published design criteria, and the Energy Commission ZIP table gives the same answer for 90630. Nearby Seal Beach, ZIP 90740, is Zone 6, so cool-roof values are not interchangeable across that line.
Trusted Across Southern California Since 1960
Alpha & Omega works for Cypress homeowners, and the company has also held contracts with well-known institutions elsewhere in Southern California. Institutional work brings submittal packages, inspection holds and site safety rules, and the crews carry those routines onto residential jobs. A house gets the same foreman, the same material specification and the same inspection steps as a larger building.
