We’ve been climbing Las Vegas roofs since 1984. Pete Navarro started this company with a simple standard: treat every home like it’s your mother’s. That means background-checked, uniformed technicians who photograph what they find, explain it in plain English, and give you a written number that won’t change. We’ve replaced roofs on Charleston Boulevard bungalows, rebuilt flat systems in the 89104 historic district, and installed tile on hillside homes overlooking the Strip. Las Vegas roofing isn’t a generic trade - it’s a discipline shaped by 115°F summers, sudden monsoon deluges, and a housing stock that spans seven decades of radically different construction.

Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Las Vegas
Full Roof Replacement
Most Las Vegas homes built before 1985 are due for Las Vegas Roof Repair or replacement, and many built in the 1990s are approaching the end of realistic service life given our UV exposure. We handle complete tear-offs and redecks, including the rotted sheathing we find beneath old flat roofs in 89104 and 89106 after years of hidden ponding. Our crews work efficiently in the cooler morning hours, and we never leave a home unprotected overnight.
Flat Roofing
This is where Las Vegas diverges from every other market. The 1950s-1970s block-and-stucco homes that dominate central neighborhoods like 89104, 89106, and pockets of 89101 were built with low-slope or flat built-up roofing during the post-war casino-boom construction wave. These roofs face a brutal combination: 115°F+ summers with UV intensity that oxidizes asphalt and dries sealants in roughly half the time seen in most U.S. markets, followed by sudden, intense monsoon downpours in July-September that exploit every dried crack. The damage stays hidden for months because no rain falls from May to July, then the first storm exposes every failure at once. We replaced a failing built-up roof on a 1960s block home near Sunrise Mountain in 89104. The original asphalt had alligatored to a hard, cracked crust, and the monsoon revealed ponding around a clogged drain that had been baking dry all summer. We tore off the old BUR, installed a new modified bitumen system with proper slope, and added a 30-year GAF warranty to match the rebuild cost.
Asphalt Shingles
For pitched roofs in newer Las Vegas subdivisions and the ranch-style homes that spread across Paradise and Spring Valley in the 1980s and 1990s, architectural shingles remain the practical choice. We install GAF Timberline HDZ and Owens Corning Duration lines with proper ridge venting - critical in a climate where attic temperatures can exceed 150°F. Poor ventilation doesn’t just shorten shingle life; it drives cooling costs through the roof. We calculate your intake and exhaust ventilation as part of every replacement, not as an afterthought.
Tile Roofing
Clay and concrete tile roofs are common on Las Vegas homes built from the late 1980s forward, particularly in hillside developments and Spanish-influenced architecture. The cracked mortar at ridges and hips from thermal cycling is a near-universal maintenance issue throughout the valley. We don’t just spot-repair - we assess whether the underlayment beneath the tile has degraded, which is the real failure point. A tile roof with sound underlayment can last 50 years; one with dried, brittle felt beneath is a water intrusion waiting to happen.
Metal Roofing
Standing seam and corrugated metal systems are gaining ground in Las Vegas for their reflectivity and longevity, particularly on modern builds and commercial properties. We install 24-gauge steel and aluminum systems rated for our wind loads and thermal expansion cycles. Metal isn’t cheap - typically 2-2.5x the cost of asphalt - but for homeowners planning to stay twenty years or more, the math often works.

Trusted Brands We Service in Las Vegas
We’re authorized installers for seven manufacturer lines: GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral, and we also handle Gutters & Accessories - Las Vegas. That matters because unauthorized substitutions are common in this market - a contractor quotes GAF, then installs a no-name membrane when your back is turned. We stock GAF and Atlas materials locally for faster turnaround on Las Vegas jobs, and our Tamko and Boral relationships give us access to specialty tile and metal products without the long lead times that plague smaller operators. Every installation carries the manufacturer’s full warranty, not a prorated shadow of it.
Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Las Vegas Homes
- Hidden ponding damage: Flat roofs in 89104-89106 hold water from summer monsoons that evaporates slowly, causing long-term membrane saturation and rot. By the time you see a ceiling stain, the decking beneath may be compromised.
- UV-accelerated alligatoring: 300+ days of 115°F sun oxidize built-up roofs into a cracked alligator pattern that splits open during the next thunderstorm. National product lifespans assume milder climates; in Las Vegas, cut those numbers in half.
- Brittle flashing: Flashing caulk dries to dust after months of 45°F-to-115°F thermal cycles, then leaks catastrophically during July downpours. We see this at every chimney, vent, and HVAC penetration on homes older than fifteen years.
- Clogged or inadequate drainage: Flat-roofed homes from the 1960s and 1970s often have original scuppers and drains sized for a different rainfall pattern. When a monsoon dumps an inch in twenty minutes, water backs up and finds the path of least resistance - usually your living room ceiling.

FAQs - Roof Replacement & Installation in Las Vegas
Replace it. Alligatoring indicates the asphalt has oxidized through its entire thickness - repairs are temporary patches on a failing system. In Las Vegas’s climate, a patched BUR roof typically fails again within 12-18 months, often during the first monsoon after the repair. A full replacement with modern modified bitumen or TPO gives you 20-30 years of service and qualifies for manufacturer warranties that repairs cannot. Call (844) 563-1816 and we’ll assess the decking beneath - free estimate, no obligation.
Because the cracks and dried sealants that let water in are baked closed during the dry months. From May through June, there’s no rain to test the system. The first sustained downpour in July finds every gap that thermal cycling opened over the previous year. By September, the pattern repeats. The leak isn’t seasonal - the detection is. Call us before the monsoon starts; we can identify and seal vulnerable points during dry weather.
Generally no - tile requires minimum slope (typically 4:12) for proper drainage, and most 1960s-1970s flat-roofed Las Vegas homes were built with structural systems designed for dead loads of 3-5 pounds per square foot, not the 8-12 pounds that concrete tile adds. Retrofitting slope and structure is possible but rarely cost-effective compared to a high-reflectivity membrane system like white TPO or a coated modified bitumen. We can achieve comparable heat reflection without the structural risk.
Twice yearly: once in late May before monsoon season, and again in October after it ends. The May inspection catches winter and spring thermal damage before the rains test it; the October inspection assesses what the monsoon exposed. For homes in 89104, 89106, and similar central Las Vegas neighborhoods with original 1960s-1970s roofing, we also recommend a professional assessment every two years even if no leaks are apparent. Our $89 Seasonal Tune-Up includes debris removal, drain clearing, and photo documentation.
Modified bitumen with a granulated cap sheet or a fully adhered TPO membrane. Both handle our thermal expansion cycles better than the original built-up roofing, and both reflect enough UV to reduce cooling loads. For homes with chronic ponding issues, we sometimes recommend a tapered insulation system to create positive drainage - it adds cost upfront but eliminates the water retention that destroys membranes in Las Vegas. We’ll evaluate your specific slope and drainage before recommending.
