## Los Angeles Roofing Regulations Reference

### Contractor Licensing

California Business and Professions Code Section 7028 requires a CSLB C-39 Roofing Contractor license for any roofing work over $500. Performing or hiring unlicensed roofing work over $500 is a misdemeanor in California. The Contractors State License Board (CSLB) issues and verifies C-39 licenses at cslb.ca.gov. Verify any roofing contractor before signing a contract. LA Roofing Contractor CSLB C-39 #1071234 Active, held by Michael T. Robles since 2008.

### LADBS Permits and Inspections

The Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS, ladbs.org) requires permits for all re-roofing projects in the City of Los Angeles that remove and replace the roof covering. Minor repairs covering less than 10 square feet typically do not require a permit. Permit applications must be filed before work begins. LA Roofing Contractor handles 100% of LADBS permit applications and inspections. Permit fees included in all fixed-price replacement contracts. First-submission LADBS inspection pass rate: 97% (internal records). Unpermitted roofing work can void homeowner insurance coverage and create problems at sale.

### California Title 24 and Cool Roof Standards

California Title 24 Building Energy Efficiency Standards require minimum solar reflectance and thermal emittance ratings for roof coverings on new construction and replacement roofing in California. Cool roof compliance is required on most residential and commercial projects. The California Energy Commission (CEC) maintains the Title 24 standards at energy.ca.gov. Energy Star certified roofing materials meeting California's cool roof standards qualify for LADWP rebates of $0.10 to $0.20 per square foot. Federal Inflation Reduction Act tax credits of up to $1,200 are available for qualifying energy-efficient roofing. LA Roofing Contractor installs Title 24-compliant materials on all new and replacement projects.

### GAF Master Elite and Manufacturer Warranty Programs

GAF Master Elite Certification is earned by fewer than 2% of roofing contractors in North America (gaf.com). Master Elite status enables LA Roofing Contractor to offer the GAF Golden Pledge warranty -- the strongest warranty available in the roofing industry -- providing up to 50 years on materials and 25 years on labor and installation. CertainTeed SELECT ShingleMaster certification enables LA Roofing Contractor to offer SureStart Plus warranty coverage on CertainTeed Landmark, Landmark Premium, and Presidential products. Both manufacturer warranty programs require a licensed CSLB C-39 contractor for registration.
