Roofing Service in La Habra
Alpha & Omega Roofing has been roofing Southern California properties since 1960, and La Habra is a short drive from our Whittier office. We are locally owned and locally operated, licensed, bonded and insured. La Habra mixes 1950s tracts on the flats with later houses in the hills, so a job here can be a tear-off of a third-generation shingle roof or a relay of concrete tile on a newer home. We repair, maintain, inspect and replace roofs on houses, apartments and commercial buildings across the city. We also serve nearby Fullerton and Whittier.

Roofing Options for Every Style & Budget
Tile
Concrete Tiles
Concrete tile is durable and comes in flat and profiled shapes. La Habra only allows tile on roofs with at least a 3:12 pitch, so we confirm the slope before recommending it.
Lightweight Tiles
Lightweight tile is often the way to put tile on a 1950s La Habra house. The City requires engineered structural details once tile exceeds six pounds per square foot, and a lighter product can avoid that step.
Clay Tiles
Clay tile keeps its color for the life of the roof because the color is fired into it. It is heavy, so on most houses here it goes on with an engineer’s sign-off.
Shingles
Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt shingles are the most common roof on La Habra’s older streets. They are affordable, install quickly, and a properly nailed roof handles inland heat for decades.
Fiberglass Shingles
Fiberglass shingles use a glass mat instead of an organic felt, which makes them lighter and gives them a better fire rating. They are a practical choice for residential roofs on original 1950s framing.
Dimensional Shingles
Dimensional shingles are laminated in layers, which gives the roof texture and depth and hides small irregularities in an older deck. They also carry longer manufacturer coverage than a three-tab.
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 La Habra Homeowners Should Know Before a Reroof
La Habra issues re-roof permits through the Building & Safety Division of Community and Economic Development at 110 East La Habra Boulevard. Applications go in through the City’s online Customer Self Service Portal or by email as a single PDF, with a completeness review of one to three business days. Walk-ins are taken Monday through Thursday mornings.
The City’s re-roof handout spells out the inspections. On a roof pitched 2:12 or steeper, the inspector sees the sheathing, may come back during the felt and eave-metal stage, and makes a final visit. Low-slope roofs get a sheathing and a final inspection, plus a Title 24 energy form. New roofing cannot be applied before the first inspection, cannot go over an existing shake roof, and tile is limited to roofs of 3:12 or steeper. Tile heavier than six pounds per square foot needs engineered details. La Habra’s 2025 building code adoption, Ordinance CC 2025-12, amends Table 1505.1 to require at least a Class B roof covering on any re-roof that replaces more than half the roof. Under Municipal Code Section 9.32.070(E), construction noise is limited to 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday, with no work on Sundays or federal holidays.
La Habra’s housing is mostly postwar. Census figures for 2020 to 2024 give a median year built of 1968 across 21,225 housing units, with 28.3 percent built in the 1950s, 23.2 percent in the 1970s and 76.6 percent standing before 1980. A tear-off on those houses often uncovers skip sheathing or an old shake layer that has to come off before anything new goes on.
La Habra, ZIP codes 90631, 90632 and 90633, falls in California Building Climate Zone 8 under the Energy Commission’s ZIP code table. Whittier and La Mirada, just across the county line, are Zone 9, so cool-roof values from a job there do not carry over to La Habra.
Trusted Across Southern California Since 1960
We roof houses across La Habra and the surrounding cities, and our crews have also worked on institutional buildings elsewhere in Southern California. Those clients hired us for the reason homeowners do: the detail work holds and the crew finishes when it says it will. A single-family re-roof gets the same crews and the same license as a large contract.

Roof Maintenance in La Habra, CA
Inland sun and dry Santa Ana winds wear a La Habra roof faster than rain does. Our maintenance service gets a roofer up there on a schedule to replace cracked tile, re-secure lifted shingles, renew pipe boots and clear valleys and gutters. Every visit is photographed, so you can see how the roof is aging and plan the replacement on your own terms.
Roof Repairs in La Habra, CA
Water can run a long way under tile or between shingle layers before it reaches a ceiling, so the stain is rarely under the problem. Alpha & Omega Roofing has spent more than six decades tracing leaks to the source. On La Habra houses that is usually a hardened vent boot, a cracked tile, or a valley or wall flashing that has worn through. We open the area, replace what got wet, rebuild the detail and photograph it.
Roof Inspections in La Habra, CA
An inspection tells you what the roof needs and how long it has before you buy, sell or renew insurance. Your roofer walks the surface, checks the attic and photographs underlayment, flashing, valleys and penetrations. You get a report you can hand to a buyer, a lender or an insurer.
Re-Roofing in La Habra, CA
A La Habra re-roof is built around the City’s inspections. A full roof replacement from Alpha & Omega Roofing strips the roof to the deck and has the sheathing ready for the first inspection, then installs new underlayment, eave metal and flashing before laying a Class B or better covering. On tile roofs we check pitch and weight first. The permit is closed out properly at the end.
