Roofing Company in Malibu - Free Roof Inspection, Written Price

Fast, Reliable Roofing Company Across Malibu

Roofing work in Malibu fails differently than it does ten miles inland. The same shingle that lasts 25 years in Calabasas can delaminate in 12 here because salt aerosol eats the fasteners and flashing long before the shingle itself gives out. Our Roofing Company crews carry stainless and marine-grade hardware on every Malibu truck because that’s what this coastline demands. We answer the phone at (945) 303-9821 when you call, and we give you a written price before we touch your roof. Greg Holloway leads our Malibu work, and he’ll tell you straight what needs replacing and what doesn’t.

Why Tilehurst Roofing Is Malibu’s Preferred Roofing Company

We’re the local member of the Kingswell family of roofing companies, founded in 2000, and we built our Malibu reputation on showing up when we said we would and putting every guarantee in writing. Homeowners in Point Dume, Malibu Park, and the canyon neighborhoods off Malibu Canyon Road call us because a previous crew no-showed, changed the price at the door, or did a repair that failed before the next rainy season. That’s the customer we were built for.

Every job begins the same way: a written price in your hands before work starts. Every repair carries a written guarantee delivered before our crew leaves your driveway. If a repair fails inside the guarantee period, we come back at no charge under our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Background-checked, uniformed technicians do the work, so you know exactly who is on your roof.

Greg has walked hundreds of Malibu rooflines from the PCH beach cottages to the steep hillside builds above Zuma. He knows which houses on Kanan Dume Road get hammered by canyon winds and which ones sit sheltered enough to spec a lighter fastening pattern. That local knowledge changes what we quote and what we install.

Commercial Roofing in Malibu

Commercial roofing in Malibu is a different animal from residential work, and it usually means low-slope or flat systems on retail, office, and restaurant buildings along the PCH corridor and up through the civic center area. Malibu’s commercial buildings take the same salt-air beating as homes, but with longer runs of parapet wall, more penetrations for HVAC and exhaust, and gravity drainage that has to survive both Santa Ana wind and marine fog. Most flat commercial work in Malibu runs $9-$18 per square foot depending on the membrane and substrate condition. A full tear-off and recover with TPO or PVC on a 2,000-5,000 sq ft roof typically lands between $22,000 and $65,000.

Membrane Selection and Salt Air

TPO is the most common spec for Malibu commercial roofs because it welds at the seams and doesn’t corrode. PVC costs more per square but handles the salt environment well and resists grease from restaurant exhaust, which matters for the commercial kitchens along PCH. We walk the roof, check the decking and insulation, test the existing membrane for water intrusion, and write a price before anyone picks up a tool.

When a Malibu Business Owner Calls

Most commercial calls come after a storm blows water through a seam or a tenant reports ceiling stains. We inspect the whole field, not just the wet spot, because a failed seam at the parapet base on one end of the building usually means there are three more waiting. Dispatch for Malibu businesses is coordinated from our Los Angeles office, and crews are on-site the same week in most cases.

Metal Roof Installation in Malibu

Metal roof installation in Malibu is not a one-size-fits-all project, and the metal that works on an inland barn will pit and streak within a few years a half mile from the surf line. In Malibu, a standing seam metal roof on a residential home runs $18-$28 per square foot installed, which puts a typical 2,500 sq ft roof at $45,000-$70,000 depending on profile, gauge, and how much of the existing roof has to come off. We always use marine-grade alloys and stainless clips within the salt-fog band, because standard Galvalume starts showing corrosion at the cut edges in under a decade here.

Fire Rating and Material Spec

Malibu sits in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, so any metal roof we install meets Class A fire-rated assembly requirements. That means the metal profile is only part of the system. Underneath, we lay a fire-rated underlayment with ice and water shield at the valleys and penetrations, then finish with ember-resistant ridge vent. The roof has to shed embers and shed salt, and the two jobs pull against each other if you spec the wrong materials.

Canyon Wind Uplift

Homes in the Malibu Canyon wind corridors need more fasteners per panel and a higher-profile seam than the manufactured spec calls for. Santa Ana gusts funnel through Las Virgenes and Malibu Canyon at speeds that exceed the published wind maps by a wide margin, and we’ve seen standard clip spacing fail on exposed ridges. We add fastening points on hip and ridge courses that would be overkill east of Calabasas, but they’re exactly what a Malibu roof needs to stay put.

Trusted Brands We Service in Malibu

We stock and install materials from seven manufacturers: GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. That means the product fits your home, not whatever happens to be on the truck that day. For Malibu work, we keep a heavier inventory of Boral concrete tile, Atlas shingles with high wind ratings, and stainless trim and fasteners than our inland locations carry, because those are the products this coastline uses up fastest. When you need a repair and matching material matters, we usually have it on hand. If we don’t, we order it and give you the arrival window in writing.

Common Roofing Company Problems We See in Malibu Homes

• Rusted fasteners under a roof that still looks new. Electro-galvanized nails used on a shingle or tile field in Malibu Park will oxidize to pencil points within a few Santa Ana seasons. The tile above still looks fine, but the roof is no longer nailed down. We photograph the fastener pattern before we tear anything off, because insurance adjusters need to see why the roof failed.
• Lifted and cracked concrete tile on canyon-exposed ridges. Santa Ana winds funneling through Malibu Canyon hit roofs with localized gusts far beyond the published wind maps. Tile courses installed to a flat-lot wind assumption shift and crack. We spec additional fastening points and high-profile tile adhesive on hip and ridge courses for every home in that wind corridor.
• Valley flashing staining stucco and leaking at the corners. Salt air attacks mill-finish valley metal first at the cut edges and where it meets the stucco. The staining is the visible sign; the leak into the sheathing is what’s happening underneath. We replace valleys with marine-grade aluminum and seal every penetration before the underlayment goes down.
• Insurance-driven code upgrades on surviving pre-Woolsey homes. Many Malibu homes that survived the 2018 Woolsey Fire are now under insurer pressure to match WUI Class A assembly standards. A roof that was “fine” three years ago is now a policy cancellation risk. We walk the inspection with you and write the remediation scope in plain English, with a price attached.
