At Forma Homes, we approach roofing with the same care and precision we bring to every interior finish. Because a roof is not just a utility. In Los Angeles, where architectural style, fire safety, and weather exposure all matter, the right roof is an investment in the entire home.

Your roof protects everything underneath it — the kitchen you just remodeled, the hardwood floors, the custom cabinetry, the art on the walls. At Forma Homes, we approach roofing with the same care and precision we bring to every interior finish. Because a roof is not just a utility. In Los Angeles, where architectural style, fire safety, and weather exposure all matter, the right roof is an investment in the entire home.
Full roof replacement is our most common roofing service. Whether your existing roof is leaking, approaching the end of its lifespan, or you are simply upgrading materials, we handle the complete process — tear-off, inspection of the underlying structure, any necessary repairs to sheathing or framing, underlayment, and installation of new roofing material.
We work with every major residential roofing material. Concrete and clay tile are the most common in Los Angeles luxury neighborhoods — they offer excellent longevity (50+ years), fire resistance, and the classic California aesthetic. Slate provides unmatched beauty and can last a century. Composition shingle is cost-effective and available in a wide range of profiles. Standing seam metal delivers a modern, clean look with excellent durability. Flat roof systems — TPO, modified bitumen, and built-up roofing — are common on contemporary and mid-century homes throughout the city.
Fire safety is a critical consideration for hillside homes in Beverly Hills, Bel Air, Pacific Palisades, and other high-fire-risk areas. All materials we install meet or exceed California fire ratings. For hillside properties, we ensure compliance with local fire codes and can recommend upgrades like ember-resistant vents and fire-rated underlayment.
Roof repair and maintenance extend the life of existing roofs. Cracked tiles, damaged flashing, valley leaks, and worn flat roof membranes are all common issues in Los Angeles. We diagnose the problem accurately, repair it properly, and address underlying causes so it does not come back.
Gutter installation and replacement is a natural complement to roofing work. Properly sized and pitched gutters direct water away from your foundation, prevent erosion, and protect landscaping. We install seamless aluminum gutters, copper gutters for period homes, and gutter guard systems that reduce maintenance.
Solar prep is increasingly part of new roof installations. If you are planning solar panels in the future, we prepare the roof with proper underlayment, reinforced mounting points, and conduit pathways — so the solar installation is cleaner and does not compromise your new roof.
If you are remodeling your home and your roof is 15+ years old, now is the time. When we already have crews on-site, scaffolding in place, and project management active, adding roofing to the scope is efficient and cost-effective. We coordinate the timeline so roofing does not hold up interior work.
Every roofing project includes a manufacturer warranty on materials and our own workmanship warranty. We pull all required permits, schedule inspections, and ensure every installation meets current building codes.
