Roof Rejuvenation in Lakewood, CA
Roof rejuvenation in Lakewood works on asphalt shingle roofs that still have life, and the nearly identical post-war tract homes built in one planned development built here mostly in the 1950 to 1953 are the homes we inspect most.
Lakewood was one of the first fully planned post-war suburbs in the country, with about 17,500 homes built in three years. We offer free inspections in Lakewood Village, Mayfair, the Carson Park area and the Del Valle Park area.
Do roofs in Lakewood qualify for rejuvenation?
Roofs in Lakewood qualify for rejuvenation when they are asphalt shingle with a solid deck and shingles that still have life, which describes many post-war tract homes in Lakewood Village and Mayfair.
In Lakewood the simple gable roofs are good rejuvenation candidates, and the most common repair is a worn vent boot.
A roof in the Carson Park area or the Del Valle Park area with soft decking or widespread curling is a replacement candidate instead, and we will say so at the inspection.

How old are most roofs in Lakewood?
Most roofs in Lakewood are 15 to 25 years old, because the tract homes built between 1950 and 1953 have all been reroofed, many during the same years as their neighbors.
If you do not know when your Lakewood roof was last replaced, the permit history kept by the City of Lakewood Building and Safety Division usually shows the reroof date, and we check the shingles directly during the inspection.
What does Lakewood weather do to an asphalt roof?
Lakewood weather brings mild coastal plain conditions with warm summers, sea breezes and damp winter mornings.
For a post-war tract home in Mayfair or the Carson Park area, coastal plain sun and damp winters is what dries the asphalt out, loosens granules and lifts sealant at the edges over time.
