If the roof still has good years left, the report tells you.
Roof repair, roof replacement and a free written roof inspection in Agoura Hills, for houses, condos, HOA and apartment buildings. The median home in the city was built in 1979, according to the Census Bureau, and nearly three in four went up in the 1970s and 1980s. In 2018 the Woolsey Fire crossed the 101 at Chesebro Road before dawn.
Deck, underlayment, then shingles or tile. The underlayment keeps the water out, and you can only check it from up on the roof.
What we check on an Agoura Hills roof
Most of the city’s roofs date from the same two decades, and they are aging together.
Underlayment from the late seventies
Many homes here are on their first or second roof. Tile can look sound from the street while the layer underneath has dried out and gone brittle, and that layer is what keeps the water out.
Class A, all of it
The city requires a Class A roof assembly on every house, not only inside a mapped zone, and prohibits wood shake and shingle. We confirm what is on your roof now and whether it qualifies.
After Woolsey
The 2018 fire burned 96,949 acres and destroyed 1,643 structures across two counties, homes in Agoura Hills among them. Vents, eave gaps and gutters full of leaves are part of every inspection.
Before the rain in Agoura Hills
Roofs from the same two decades, wind along the freeway corridor, and rural lots in Old Agoura.
Whole streets, the same age
With the median home built in 1979, neighbors often have roofs of similar age. If the house next door leaked last winter, yours is worth a look before the first storm.
Wind along the 101
Santa Ana winds pushed the Woolsey Fire across the freeway in 2018. The same fall winds loosen ridge tiles and lift shingle edges, and winter rain finds what they opened.
Old Agoura runoff
Old Agoura streets were built without curbs or gutters, so the water coming off your roof has to be handled on your own lot. Downspouts and where they drain are part of the visit.
Before the first big storm: book the free roof check, or read our winter storm roof guide.

The rules that apply to an Agoura Hills roof
Agoura Hills is its own city with its own building division. City of Los Angeles rules do not apply here.
Re-roofs are permitted by the City of Agoura Hills Building & Safety Division on Ladyface Court, not by LADBS. Fire service is the Los Angeles County Fire Department.
Every roof covering must be a Class A assembly, and wood shake and shingle roofs are prohibited anywhere in the city.
Old Agoura has its own design overlay in the zoning code to protect its rural character. We check whether design review applies before materials are ordered.
We get on the roof, photograph what we find and write it up.

Carriers often assess a roof from aerial imagery rather than a visit. A dated written report confirming Class A status, roof age and condition, with photographs, is something your agent can forward.

Roof questions in Agoura Hills
Repair or replace?
Usually the underlayment decides it, and you have to get on the roof to check that. The report gives you the answer, with photos.
What does a new roof change for my insurer?
Most letters name roof age. The permit and completion papers show the new roof’s date; what the carrier does with them is its decision.
Do I need the fire zone map to know my roof rules?
For the roof covering, no. The city requires Class A on every house. The 2025 state maps did add more of Agoura Hills to the Very High zone, so the report notes where your address falls as well.
