Whittier Roofing Contractor. Old Homes, Done Right.
We are a Whittier roofing contractor families here call when an older Craftsman or a hillside tile roof needs honest work, from the Hadley-Greenleaf and College Hills historic districts to Friendly Hills and the foothill homes above Uptown. Family-run, bilingual, just over the line from La Habra, with 40 years across Southern California.
A family roofer who knows older roofs.
Whittier is not one kind of house. The Hadley-Greenleaf, Central Park, College Hills, and Earlham historic districts are full of Craftsman bungalows and Spanish revivals from the early 1900s, many on their original framing. Up in Whittier Hills and Friendly Hills the homes are newer and wear tile on steeper, wind-exposed slopes. We work both, we answer the phone ourselves, and we will tell you straight whether your roof needs a repair or a reroof.
What Whittier roofs deal with.
Historic Craftsman roofs
The older homes near Whittier College and the Greenway Trail often have shingle or low-slope sections that have been reroofed over the years. We work carefully on original homes and keep the look right.
Hillside Santa Ana wind
The foothill homes above Whittier catch strong Santa Ana winds from October to February that lift and crack tile. We re-bed ridge tile and replace what the wind loosens.
Hillside tile homes
Whittier Hills and Friendly Hills are tile-heavy. On a tile roof the tile usually outlasts the underlayment under it, so an underlayment reroof is often the honest fix, not a whole new roof.
Marine layer and winter rain
Morning marine-layer damp and winter rain age underlayment and find tired flashing. We trace the leak to where the water actually gets in.

Questions
Straight answers.
Do you serve all of Whittier?
Yes. We cover Whittier from the historic Craftsman neighborhoods around Uptown and Whittier College to the hillside homes in Whittier Hills and Friendly Hills. La Habra is our home base and Whittier is right across the county line, so we get there quickly.
My house is an older historic home. Can you reroof it without ruining the look?
Yes. Many Whittier homes in the Hadley-Greenleaf and College Hills districts are early-1900s Craftsman and Spanish revivals. We match the existing material and keep the roofline true to the house, so the work fits the home instead of fighting it.
A lot of Whittier hillside homes have tile. Do you specialize in tile?
Yes. Tile is what most homes up in Whittier Hills and Friendly Hills wear, and it is our specialty. On a tile roof the clay or concrete tile often outlasts the underlayment beneath it, so the honest fix is usually to replace the underlayment and re-lay your existing tile rather than buy a whole new roof.
How much does a roof in Whittier cost?
It depends on the roof and the material. As a rough guide, concrete tile runs about $8 to $13 per sq ft and clay about $10 to $15, so a typical home lands around $16k to $48k. An underlayment reroof that reuses your existing tile costs less, and a repair is far less. We give a free written estimate with the real number.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Pacific Roofing is a California-licensed roofing contractor, CSLB license 1092407, classification C-39, insured, and an Owens Corning Preferred contractor. You can verify the license yourself on the CSLB website.
